Life Review
MISSING SKILLS - what can't I do? Where am I lacking skills? Admitting what’s missing is another painful exercise. But this reflection is required if you want to proceed to the next topic.

Life in Balance
-
-
“Work gives us meaning,” some say. That might be true. Or not. One thing is for sure: We spend more time at work than with our loved ones. It is important to draw a line and make sure that there’s enough emotional energy left for yourself and your family after work

Strategy
-
-
-
A wise friend of mine from Saudi Arabia once told me “Failing to plan means planning to fail.” There’s another approach, “Laissez-faire”, which can be useful as well, at a certain point in time. Living a life between boundaries can be limiting or rewarding. That depends on personality

Network
Whom do I know?

Don’t be shy. Life is a give and take, a quid pro quo amongst friends and business partners. Giving is rewarding. Giving without expecting a return is altruism. Always giving without receiving is draining. It is my personal opinion that things will level to equilibrium during a long life. However, there can be a point in time when help is needed. And there’s nothing unethical about asking people to return a favor.
Tactics
When the strategy is the tool that you’ve chosen, tactics are about how to use the tool. This actually puts the strategy at test since a strategy that cannot be delivered upon is not a strategy but a dream.

Ability to Learn- - Putting things on a timeline makes it a bit easier to answer these questions. As I’m getting closer to retirement, I don’t bother starting off new revolutions. Improving on the things that I’m already good at is what fits into the remaining time. Learning also becomes a bit more difficult with age. However, your choice!

Willingness to Learn
-
-
It is one thing to be able to learn. But do you really want to learn? Learning is progress but learning fundamentally new things might also be stressful. Something to be seriously considered!

Professional Identity
-
-
-
The classic self-/public picture exercise. This is where you might need more than one friend to give you honest feedback. How you WANT to be seen is not an invitation to act. This is an invitation to evaluate if you HAVE to act or if it is really you
Work in Balance
Last but not least: How far do you want to go when it comes to work? How much do you want to sacrifice? Clearly defining your limits will help you make a decision. It will also help you to be happy at work and, hence, happy at home!

The Value of Life
-
-
This is likely the most intimate question to ask. And it is likely the only constant in life and hence the most difficult to answer. Being consequent on your values and not bending backwards in times of challenge is a virtue
Vision
Ultimate Destination - Even though there is no ultimate!
The dream everyone has in mind. The big picture! Not the “I want to be a billionaire”-thing. It is about the ultimate goal one wants to achieve and the “final destination” in that very moment.

*Running my own learning/arts/tech related program - that might be connected to real world & a university - or like a hobby thing - and lots of children from lots of schools come together
*Having an international career - spending a few months a year in another place / world doing what I do?

-
I could help other upcoming organisations with their service strategies - being a board member is that what I want?
Being a LDT blogger / as in along with what I am doing - when I read up - also having a blog side by side
