What Kind Of Legacy Are You Leaving And Living? Legacy: (1)a gift by will especially of money or other personal property (2)something that happened in the past or that comes from someone in the past Your legacy is what you leave behind for your future generations. Its something you create during your life to benefit future generations. Legacies dont happen overnight—and they dont happen by accident. Legacy is more about sharing what you have learned, not just what you have earned. The legacy you leave is the life you lead. Legacy is the residue of a well lived life. Everything you do and say is a deposit into your legacy. Thats why proper mindset is so important. When you begin to create your legacy, you create a ripple effect that impacts society as a whole weather negatively or positively. I want to talk to you about living your legacy. When you begin to live the legacy that youre building, a shift happens in your core. Your influence, who you are authentically shifts and you begin to measure your value and life purpose not only by how much wealth, recognition, power, prestige, fame or position you have.....You begin to look at what you are giving to the world. What kind of value and life lessons are you leaving and living? Steps to building your legacy: 1. Create a vision. You gotta have an end in mind, something that youre working towards. Figure out your strengths. Identify what you value and then define what you want to do and where you want to make your impact. 2. Gather up your resources. Take a serious look at what you have to work with. If you dont have enough for what you want your legacy to be, begin to connect yourself with the programs and people who will get you there. 3. Begin to work on the design. Every architect gets in his mind what he wants whatever hes building to look like then he sits down and draws it out. You have to do the same with the legacy that youre building. Use your dreams, ideas, interest and values. Draw it out. See every part of it. Write the vision and make it plain. 4. Develop your infrastructure. This is the blueprint stage. This is where you start taking all the notes youve put together and start building. This is where you start working on your foundation. This is the skeleton or backbone of your legacy. This is what holds it up and keeps it together. Failing to plan is planning to fail. Dot every i and cross every t. 5. Bring your legacy to life. This is where you see the legacy that youre building began to breathe and take on a life of its own. All those dream, vision, aspirations, goals....You see the affect it has on others who take this vision, this legacy and run with it. 6. Harvest the rewards and duplicate. When your legacy is operational and moving, its like a locamotive. That forward motion just keeps building. This is the point where you can live in the moment of the legacy that youve been building. And the people that have connected themselves with you, you see them taking a hold of your vision, your legacy and using it as the blueprint to build their own. Your legacy lives on for generations in them and the lives theyll touch. Ripple effect. This is why its so important to walk into your destiny. This is why you write out your vision. Youre not just a leader, youre a Legacy Builder. People are watching and following you. This is your season. Get up, Get out and Get it done! Last thoughts: Think about your legacy. Record it - write it down in a journal or type a word document, or prepare a vocal recording of it. Review it on a regular basis – do a self-audit to assess if you’re on track with achieving your own legacy Revise as necessary and keep building. bit.ly/profitin24
