FIGHT FOR CHANGE, ACCEPT WHAT IS ACTION PLAN

This chapter focuses on identifying and clarifying where you are in your life now, the gaps between your current situation and where you want to be, and creating a plan for bridging those gaps. At the same time the chapter offers tools and practices for developing more calm and ease by more fully accepting yourself.

1. Reflect on your life as if you were an orchestra leader (page 146). Write or consider:

What are your current goals?

What are you doing to realize them?

What skills are you already adept at, and where do you need more practice?

2. Practice cultivating spaciousness (page 148).

3. Do the “two eulogies” exercise (page 149).

4. Set your intention (page 151) by writing down all the ways you’d like to improve your life.

5. Identify your resistance (page 154) to pursuing these changes.

6. Measure the distance (page 157) of the creative gaps between where you are and where you want to be in terms of finances, joy, and impact.

7. Write a personal business plan (page 162) that converts all of this into measurable goals or steps along a specific timeline.

8. For one week, maintain a dual happiness index (page 166).

9. Now, every day, or anytime, do the “nothing lacking” practice (page 169).

10. Revise your personal business plan so that it includes scheduled laziness (page 170).
