Project Your Life
/ What Is Sylvie Reading / Subscribe 0
Fall is always the start of a great big pile of books for me.
This next selection is a bit different… I am slowly but surely moving towards buying more books in an electronic format and this is one of them. I found this book through my LinkedIn contacts and when it first came out, all the proceeds were given to the Make-a-Wish Foundation. For those of you who are members of Kindle plus, you can read it for free as part of your subscription.
Project Your Life by Tiago Mateus
Tiago Mateus is a professional and certified project manager that spent years developing important skills.
However, it was only when he faced the worst period of his life, fighting against lung disease, that he came to a crucial realization: the same skills and tools he had been using in his work could also be applied to his private life. They could help him achieve the goals that he desired, starting with improving his health, but also extending to spending more quality time with his family and further advancing his career. As he worked on a process to put this idea into practice, this book was born.
In the Project Your Life journey, you will learn the 7 crucial skills of Life Project Management, distilled into 7 levels and summed up with the acronym GROW POSITIVE:
Level 1 - Goals: Gain clarity by setting the My Fa-Bu-Lux life goals.
Level 2 - Routine: Create a routine and win the “happy hour”.
Level 3 - Others: Invite others to support you; you are not alone!
Level 4 - Wow: Feel your purpose, feel excited, feel wow!
Level 5 - Plan Out: Plan out work packages by breaking down your deliverables.
Level 6 - Skills In: Turn skills into superpowers for strong execution.
Level 7 - Track & Improve: Track your progress and improve with mastery.
Bonus - V____ E_____: Find the V. E. secret and drive your projects to 100% success.
By managing a Life Plan, you transform your life goals into life projects and yourself into a Project Lifer, multiplying by 7 your chances of success and increasing your sense of fulfillment.
