While, hopefully, there are several interesting and/or useful pieces included on this website, it is important that you use "The Process" (with all the steps relevant to you) to get the most out of all this and to have a chance at True Mastery of Life Management.
SYSTEMATIC LEARNING AND FOLLOWING "THE PROCESS"
Haphazard reading of materials and use of workshops does not create much more than comfort and being somewhat smarter. Systematic use, in the right order, can ease the path and help assure progress is more rapid and more complete.
Some of the principles we will be using will include:
THE 80-20 RULE:
20% of the most important things yield 80% of the results.
Accordingly, this website will not deal with much of the "other 80%". Actually, you only have time for the top 20% anyway! AND I'll not "perfect" things, as perfection has a low payoff, so I would ask that you suspend the "right-wrong" machine and accept the substance over the form.
CHECK BOXES AND DECISIONS ARE MADE AS YOU GO, NOT "LATER"
The materials include many places to check boxes and to decide what you will do. Many of those will be so obvious and/or blatant that they'll appear, at the kindest, kinda stupid-simple. Nevertheless, if you go along with them they force you, in a sense, to make a choice that is smarter than the "stupid" alternative.
FORMS ARE SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT-FORWARD AND LEAD YOU TO COMPLETION
Forms are used extensively to help you complete the process, rather than suggesting you ought to do something, one can "see" if one has completed all the steps. So that one does not have to think too hard or to find alternatives to fill in, there are many suggestions of alternatives that fit others or most people - simply select what applies, eliminating the need to write it out yourself.
PUTTING THE "UNDERSTANDING PIECES" ALL TOGETHER IN A "QUIKLEARN" WAY
The series called "The Underlying Basics" uses the QuikLearn method of outlining and uses Key Points, similar to what a Powerpoint presentation might look like. And they will leave out some connective words and some reasoning. So if the point is not "gotten" (understood) by you, then use a link to a more detailed, more complete document in plain English.
ALL THE PIECES FOR THE SYSTEM FOR HAVING LIFE WORK FOR HAPPINESS
Between the LifeNotebook Systems, the forms to direct one's efforts and to cause completion, and the resources that we're integrating into the process, you should be able to finally have a system that supports you toward achieving the deep, enduring, ongoing happiness that you have the right to. You may wish to review the diagram, attached as a document, of how all the pieces fit together: Overview of How The LifeMastery System Fits Together.
THE WORTH OF DOING "THE PROCESS' SHOULD BE THE HIGHEST OF ANYTHING YOU'VE EVER DONE OR COULD DO!
Like anything that has some complexities and is very meaningful and important, the time to go through and to implement will be substantial. But this can be as meaningful as all you learned as a child, though it represents creating a highly masterful and completely modified version of the child's version of life and strategies. The payoff is that you will have a life worth immensely more, full of deep, enduring, ongoing happiness.
