Hello,
Each individual is at a different stage in life and runs into different challenges. The question is can you increase your potential, achieve higher ambitions while going through life events.
As people go through the day to day routines of school or work, sometimes people run into big issues..... are you ready for challenges? Maybe we should anticipate the stages in life and then deal with them as they come along? Are you managing 'Life Events' and getting through them? Let's have a discussion on this to ensure you're handling the issues in the most effective manner.
Here's another way to think about what life has to offer:
There is the board game, LIFE, but let's talk about Life like a video game with different levels. You work through one level and then go to the next. Are you ready for the next level with new challenges?
Here are Challenges to work through at different levels:
Level 1 - Student
How's school going? Can you ACE every test? Are you at the top of your class?
Level 2 - College
Did you find the right college? Have you chosen a path that's going to set your path for life? How about graduate school?
Level 3 - Career
Did you find your first job? Have you found a career that's right for you? Do you enjoy your work?
Level 4 - Marriage
Are you going to make a commitment and settle down? What does it take to make a successful marriage?
Level 5 - First House
Looking for your first house? Ready to maneuver all the real estate lingo and paperwork? Make sure you buy something affordable and don't get caught in the mortgage crisis.
Level 6 - Kids
Would you like to have children and to see the world through another set of eyes? Do you want kids to carry on your traditions through the next generation? Are you ready to loose sleep and then juggle and multi task kids activities?
Level 7 - Sandwich Generation
So, you've got responsibilities at work, responsibilities raising kids and responsibilities looking after parents. Is this where you're close to a nervous breakdown? How do you handle it all and keep your sanity?
Level 8 - Accidents
Can you handle an accident? Car accident? Fractured bones? Need to visit the hospital and doctors and hopefully recover quickly.
Level 9 - Debilitating Diseases
What happens if someone you love has a serious medical issue? It could be Parkinson's disease or Cancer? How do you handle it? Do you have a system of support to help the patient get the treatment and help needed?
So, the challenge is to get through it all, one stage at a time. The best way to handle these things is to learn and understand new issues as they come up. Look into resources and a support network to help address these types of concerns.
The goal is to get through it all in a happy, fulfilling manner. I would like everyone around me get through life in a stress-free manner where everyone should have fun and be happy.
Good Luck!

Introducing LIFENET
LIFENET - Learning and Inspiring for a Fulfilling and Enriching life
By working together and creating a solid network we can create some synergy, so let's get LIFENET started. This will be an opportunity to connect a group of individuals, work together and provide a mutual support network. As we move forward and follow our ambitions we will work towards a better life but we should always maintain balance. Keep the mind and body in balance so that you can handle whatever comes at you and continue to be successful.
Having a solid network provides a means to handle life events when they come up. There may be job layoffs, health issues or other serious concerns that we have to work through. Then there are areas of learning, growing and sharing positive experiences. Let's filter through all the extra media and info on the internet and focus on what you need to know.
There will be 3 key themes through the support network:
1) Education
It is important to get a good education and even after schooling it is critical to keep learning. Whenever you run into a problem, you should learn as much as you can about the issue to help deal with it and find an answer. You should promote learning and seeking knowledge and possibly help others find solutions to life's challenges. There are an infinite number of topics to learn about and you can always 'google' an issue to learn. There are many people that maybe in need but by learning new skills, there life may progress to new levels. Life is one big mystery so keep learning.
2) Health
We want a network that can promote a strong healthy group of individuals. The strength of the network is based on the strength of the individuals. Need strong spirits, mentally and physically that can handle anything in life. Need to be informed when health issues arise and share the latest information in medical breakthroughs.
3) Charity
We live in a universe where everything needs to balance out. We want to live in a happy environment where all people around us are doing ok. Many people are already connected to various non-profit organizations and those efforts should be highly promoted. Consider volunteering your time to support a worthy cause or communicate info on charities that are doing good things for the world.
So, to kick things off, I have set up a yahoogroups for further discussion. The group is called LIFENET411. It will be a place to share articles, resources and information as we go through the journey of life.

Look forward to seeing everyone join LIFENET. Send me your feedback.
