Welcome to your life compacts. This is it, you now have your own digital copy of the tool. And in this video I will introduce how it works overall. And then also introduce the first section of it, which is around your personal mission statement and your values so that I've compasses an Excel tool and it has several worksheets or tabs that you can find right here at the bottom of your Excel view. You can also import this into Google Drive if you do not have Excel. I have done this in the past and that I've compressed is compatible with Google Drive or any other online editing tools.

So sparing you the technology aspect. This first section on introduction is really just here for you as a reminder of how the life compass works. So on top of the training if you need a quick reminder You can always go back here and in the file directly, you will get the description of the various steps we're going to go through. I also put my inspirations and references things like the Seven Habits Stephen Covey getting things dawn Gallup, the secret, all the various sources of inspiration that helped me refine what the life compass is about. Then the next step is around principles. In the principles, I have added a few things that are not mentioned in my video on the tips I'm giving for the best management of goals.

So the smart description still very much applies, but this is in the video. And there I just put some other views and other principles that could be helpful for you that could just help you to challenge yourself or look at things in a different way. So have a look and take what you want from it. So, the first view is your mission statement. This is just, for me a way to start with the end in mind, as Stephen Covey would say, or start with why. Yeah.

So if you do any goal if you do any work on your personal development, it is crucial in my view that you know why you're doing it. And by why I mean, it needs to connect with something really important to you. It needs to tie into your own identity, your own personal purpose, and your biggest dreams in life. So goal setting will only be relevant if you attach it to your own mission statement and your own values. That's why I always start my life compass review with this first section on the Y on my mission statement and my values. Now, many people told me Hey, but I don't have a mission statement.

And I don't know my life purpose. So what I've done on the introduction, there are a few links down there. And you can find here, a link from the Stephen Covey Institute where you can actually fill in a few questions online, and they will give you your personal mission statements. I found that people made good use of this as an first source of inspiration to drive their own mission statement. If you would like to know what my own personal mission statement is, you know, feel free to contact me by message and I'll share it with you. But you know, it seems like you know, I do want to leave a passionate life and I want to contribute on a daily basis.

And I want to make sure that I use the maximum of my potential and that I'm ready to go out of my comfort zone at least once a day so that I grow consistently. This could be my mission statement actually, not far from it. And then the values. Same here, I have recorded podcasts on how you you can elicit your personal values. So same. If you would like to know how to do this, I will put the podcast link onto this training.

And you can elicit your own personal values here I've splitted it in the move away values and the move towards values. You don't know what those are, again, go back to my podcast, or anyone's podcast. Actually, you know, there are many, many materials out there on how you do your values. So this is it for the first section. We've done intro principles and mission statement.
