Next Steps Guide
A guide that helps you objectively determine the next most important step to get you to who you want to be and get, where you want to go.
Introduction
Use the Next Steps Guide as often as useful. To find clarity and direction. To double check yourself or simply as a self exploration.
​
Remember this as you progress. There is no one size fits all. We are all unique at birth, have different experiences, learn from different sources, are influenced by different environments and in turn develop our own values and goals.
Don't try to be something or someone else you are not. Be true to yourself and where you realistically are on your journey. Keep this in mind whilst using this guide to arrive at better outcomes.
​
Also, have fun. Life can be serious and we should take our lives seriously. But you should also enjoy the journey. Try treating it playfully, as a 'choose your own adventure' type journey to provide some objectivity to your assessment.
