2020 Goals, Building My World in 12 Months

If you had 12 months to build the foundation of your life, what would you build?

In this post, I will be discussing the 3 pillars I will be building in the 2020 goals as a foundation for the work that my life will be invested in moving forward. Read on to learn what I will be up to this year. 

And I’m talking specifically about your life’s work, what you offer the world that will continue to live after you are dead and gone. 

👉 I’m talking about the MOVEMENT that defines the meaning of your life. 

So this is the challenge and I’m facing this year.

So, here is how I would go about this: 

The first place to start is to state what my mission in life is. 

My mission is to  

“Build bridges that families can cross and find life.” 

What that means is, I want to create ways for people who are struggling to see clearly so they can be whole individuals and have thriving relationships.  

So, if this is going to happen I believe there are three distinct areas where I need to focus my attention: 

1. Men

2. Marriages

3. Family Dynamics.  

If I can build these three things, I will officially complete the work of creating the foundation for my future efforts. Pretty much everything I do from this point forward will have to do with one or all three of these areas.

Let me explain:

1. Men

The big hard truth is this: You never really improve a family until you can improve the men in a family. 

And if I could be honest the male identity has been really torn apart by weakness, misunderstandings, and fragile masculinity.

In many ways, I feel it is important to work to rebuild the male identity and create importance within the role of men.

Men need to be strong again so that the gains achieved within a family or in a marriage can be sustained and not torn apart by the men involved.

2. Marriages

There’s a lot of information and strategies and resources that are meant to help build marriages. And I’m not looking to invent something new. 

I believe we need to bring the stuff that works in building marriages closer to real life. 

So part of my effort and hope is to create a context for marriages to not just survive but to excel in to grow.

3. Family Dynamics 

Improving family dynamics tends to be some of the most intensive and extensive and involved work out there, because of all the different moving parts in each family. 

Here is the secret: To save a family, you have to first save the family members.

I have 12 months!

Here is how I’m going to do it.  

Trimester plan

I’m breaking up this year into three different parts. And each part is going to focus on a specific group that I’ve identified above.

 January -April 

Marriage

April – August  

Men

September-December 

Family 

I’ll be starting this month with marriage resources. Take a listen to our podcast, we already have great resources posted. Stay tuned for more stuff coming this year. **click on the picture below
