Purpose Examination
Construction Stage 4.4 Blueprints Review & Re-Visioning
SAL Model Stage 4.4 Purpose Examination
Just as a construction company must continually check and re-check their blueprints to make sure they are on the right track throughout the construction process, self-action leaders like YOU need to review your own SAL Blueprints—in the form of your SAL Declaration of Independence and SAL Constitution—from time-to-time to ensure you are "on purpose" and "on track" with your vision, mission, values, standards, and goals.
An important part of reviewing your Self-Blueprints is the process of Re-Visioning, which is defined as: the process of clarifying, expanding, and perfecting your SAL Blueprints over time.
RE-VISIONING
The process of clarifying, expanding, and perfecting your SAL Blueprints over time.
The Re-Visioning process is something that will continue on indefinitely into the future as you continually evolve, grow, mature, and progress as a human being and self-action leader. Another term for Re-Visioning is PURPOSE EXAMINATION, which is defined as:
the ongoing evaluation of—and adjustments to—your life's purpose.
PURPOSE EXAMINATION
The ongoing evaluation of—and adjustments to—your life purpose.
How often should you review your SAL DoI and SAL Constitution to examine your life's purpose and Re-Vision your SAL Blueprints?
That is up to YOU.
The innate importance of this subject should make it a continual conversation in the back of your mind. In other words, you should be reflecting regularly—even daily—on your life's purpose and your SAL Blueprints.
Nevertheless, there is a difference between passing thoughts and casual contemplation and a formal revisiting and rigorous review.
How often, then, should your commit to formal reviews of your SAL Blueprints?
Based on your individual circumstances, needs, and desires, you may choose to formally review these documents weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually. In the beginning—immediately after you have completed your initial drafts—it is wise to review them more often in the beginning, such as weekly or monthly. However, as time goes on and you become increasingly familiar with and connected to the content of your SAL Blueprints, it is okay to begin spacing reviews out to quarterly, semiannual, and eventual annual reviews.
An annual review should be a minimum benchmark for all self-action leaders, no matter how aged or experienced.
As you review your Self-Blueprints, you possess sovereign authority to make revisions and/or additions as you see fit. In so doing, Freedom Focused strongly urges you to ensure that any changes are aligned with both your Conscience and the principles and practices contained in the SAL Theory and Model. If you fail to recognize, acknowledge, respect, and adhere to True Principles rooted in Universal Laws, the long-term utility and value of you Self-Blueprints will be limited.
The more time you invest in your SAL Blueprints, the clearer you will be on what your personal and professional purposes are, and the more motivated you will be to pursue your outlined targets.
Along the way, remember to be PATIENT with yourself.
I worked on my own SAL Blueprints for many years before they arrived at the relatively static place where they stand today. It took time—a lot of it—before I developed the vision and confidence I enjoy today, where I truly comprehend who I am and what I am about as a human being and self-action leader. And even now—in my late 40s—I continue to evolve, grow, learn, and mature.
The journey of Existential Growth never really ends.
It keeps on evolving, maturing, and progressing in beautifully desirable ways FOREVER.
In Your Journal
If you have not already formally reviewed your completed SAL Declaration of Independence and SAL Constitution, do so TODAY, or before the end of the week. Record in your journal any thoughts, ideas, or inspiration that came to you during the review process, and summarize the substance of any Re-Visioning you undertook in the form of additions, subtractions, or revisions.
