Introducing the Four Building Blocks of a Legacy Plan
>> Friday, December 19, 2008
I thought about where we should begin our discussion on Legacy Planning and I determined that a quick introduction to the Four Building Blocks was the best way to go. Here they are:
#1 - Personal Mission Statement - guides your daily and major life decisions;
#2 - Strategic Life Plan - puts purpose and direction with quantifiable goals and objectives tied to your personal mission;
#3 - Personal Legacy Statement - captures the most valued life lessons and experiences for future generations benefit; and,
#4 - Family Mission Statement - steers the family toward a unified course and mission capitalizing on the strength, richness and diversity of the whole as opposed to the one.
These are the four basic building blocks. I will come back to each in detail at a later point in time, stay tuned...
