Consulting Skills: Life Analysis

Tough Life Analisys

- Do you want to go for Lunch tomorrow?
- OK, let’s meet at 12.30

Naïve question to invite a friend who works close by to my office. We met at this great Asian fusion resto 2 blocks away from my office (d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!)

- Hi. How are you doing? Bla bla bla
- Bla bla bla

In less than 10 minutes we were talking about “deep shit”: personal information; career growth; family; relationships; etc etc, etc.

It is amazing how we all face the same challenges but in different ways. How we all prioritize in a different manner; not better or worse: just different.

I took a paper napkin and wrote what I thought were the main challenges for my friend and organized them in THINGS TO SOLVE in the SHORT, MIDDLE and LONG term. The graphic looked somehow like this.

Life analysis

How much simpler things are when you take an outside perspective. Being a Life Consultant for others... Don't you wish you could do the same thing , but with YOUR VERY OWN LIFE as the subject. I will try. I will share the graphic too!

  • Accronyms
    Heart: Love
    C: Career
    F: Family
    W: Work
    S: Self (assurance or esteem or...)
    E: Education

    And then you always have challenges in each. Choose 2 in each and focus on prioritizing them in LONG, MD and SHORT term

    (For free this is all I can share) :)

  • Would have love to hear your context though...

    Just one thought: so if I look at your chart now, short term may be next year, mid-term may be in 5 years, long-term may be in 10 years... So if I look at your chart in 2011, I have lost the short-term.... I don't think it will fit into my Gitti 2010 vision... hehehehe :-)
