Beginning with the end in mind.

I have been reading the book "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" for the second time. I have deiced to read 1 habit every week and do all of the exercises he talks about. The first exercise I will be doing is called "beginning with the end in mind."

The author Stephen Covey wants you to picture your funeral 3 years from today and what your family, friends, work associates, and community group or church would say about you at your funeral. This will help you to touch your deep values and assist you in writing your mission statement or personal constitution.

Over the next week or so I will be posting 5 eulogy's for me. One for each of the 4 groups that the book talks about. The 5Th will be my eulogy, told by me, if I died today. I think this will help know my definition of success, and what I need to change to become the person I want to be.

I know this sounds a little warped and disturbing, but I think the end result will be amazing.
