A FINANCIAL PLANNING PROCESS
The Meaningful Life

1. THE VISION
What would you like to see happen? If all things aligned where would you be, what might that look like? A vision for your future brings focus and clarity to the ‘ends’ of your accomplishments. It answers where all the ‘means’ are taking you.
2. THE PLAN
This defines the goals and the timelines that have come out of your vision process. This gives us rails to run on and is the blueprint we come back to in order to measure progress and results. This plan ensures you are creating the margin you’d like to see with your schedule, emotions, risk tolerance, and finances.
3. THE PERFORMANCE
This is a balance between what we have both agreed to work on and commit to. This is what we discuss in the ongoing meetings to see ‘what’ if anything has changed. How is the growth, the deposits, the marketplace, the income, the portfolio, the timeline all working towards the Plan?
4. THE FULFILLMENT
Once we reach your cottage, income, debt-free, lifestyle, inheritance, charitable goal – what else would you like to plan for? This is where we rinse and repeat. The Meaningful Life Planning Process is a proven and repeatable tool that is used to create more meaning and fulfillment in your world.
