Hello, visionaries and pioneers!
It’s time to revisit our 11-year journey, a pivotal chapter in our grand 101-Year Odyssey. Dive into clarity, understand the importance of SMART objectives, dissect your goals, and master persistence. Today, we begin a fresh chapter that transcends history, exploring “The Hero’s Journey” and its impact on our plans.
The Hero’s Journey: A Deep Dive
Joseph Campbell introduced the Hero’s Journey, a universal narrative arc shared by global mythologies and tales. In Ourstory, you are the hero.
From the Ordinary World to the Special World: Embrace the New
In the Hero’s Journey, heroes venture from their familiar realm into a world brimming with potential and trials. For us, this is the moment you commit and act towards your aspirations.
Tests, Allies, and Enemies: Navigate Your Path
Heroes encounter trials and forge alliances, just as you will face obstacles and find support in your 11-year quest. Identifying these will guide your journey effectively.
Approach, Ordeal, and Reward: The Crucial Encounters
At the core of the Hero’s Journey is the approach, the challenge, and the triumph. In our plan, these are the times of intense challenge and profound achievement.
The Return: Completing the Cycle
The journey concludes with a return, transformed and enlightened. In your 11-year plan, this signifies achieving your goals and embarking on the next adventure.
The Hero’s Journey isn’t linear; it’s cyclical. Each journey sets the stage for the next, each cycle drawing us nearer to our ultimate purpose.
Until next week, continue to dream, plan, and keep your aspirations vibrant and alive. No body else will do this for you. If not you, then who? The future is yours to shape!
Happy planning!
