M.A.N.  Chart for Purposeful Planning

 

Organizing your day is the foundation for ‘self leadership.’   You will either let others and circumstance control your day or you will purposefully organize and structure your day. This is a guideline not a rigid legalistic plan.   Relationships always ‘trump’ schedule.   But IF you are seeking the Lord through this process do not minimize the importance of a purposeful and strategic agenda. You will accomplish exponentially more if you plan. Fail to plan is to plan to fail.

Remember To Use Man In your Plan!   M.A.N. is obvious.   I&G and MPS should be intentional and balanced.

         Morning (what events, meetings and work will you accomplish) – itemize them

Afternoon (what events, meetings and work will you accomplish) – itemize them

Night (what events, meetings and work will you accomplish) – itemize them

 

  • 2/3 of the day should working/serving; 1/3 should be personal time)
  • I & G Focus:  A balance of Individual and Group activities
  • Work and Service should engage: Mental, Physical and Spiritual with balance

To pursue private purity and public charity/compassion. (James 1:27)

 

Aim for 3. Change them when you need to. Prioritize them. Pursue them.

If you ‘aim’ at nothing, you will hit it every time.

PRAY / PLAN / PRIORITIZE / EXECUTE / CELEBRATE


The “6 x6 x6” M.A.P.

 

The most difficult task of leadership is leading oneself. Too many dreams are wasted due to the lack of goal setting and schedule implementation.   Sometimes the reason for little progress is that we don’t know how to do something. The major cause however is lack of preparation and self-leadership.

I must plan for the success of my ideas.   I must sit down at the beginning of each week, month, year and organize my life so that my vision and goals will be implemented. STOP GOALS…CREATE GOALS…SCORE GOALS…CELEBRATE GOALS
