This attitude says life design is a collaborative and communal process instead of a solitary, \u201cheroic\u201d artistic pursuit. Many life designing skills, such as wayfinding and prototyping, depend on participation by other people. In life design, you don\u2019t create but <em>co-create<\/em> ideas and opportunities. Your life design is \u201cout there\u201d in the world of people and relationships, not inside your head. Wayfinding journaling and prototyping efforts can lead you to consider and become involved with various people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you need to take the next step of consciously identifying your team, which includes two levels: general and specific.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Establishing Your Team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your life designing team will comprise a general team, a subset of that team, and possibly a mentor or two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your General Team<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your general team consists of people who play three different roles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Allies<\/strong> are friends and others who care about your life and willingly provide feedback on your plans. You can count on them to \u201cbe there\u201d for you.<\/li><li><strong>Key players <\/strong>are direct co-workers in your life designing efforts.<\/li><li><strong>Intimates<\/strong> are your family members and closest friends. They\u2019re the most influential people in your life designing project. It can be tricky to figure out what role they should play. At minimum, always be sure to keep them informed, so there won\u2019t be any surprises.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Specific Team<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your specific team consists of three to six people whom you pick from your general team to share your life designing project directly. Consider choosing people who are already involved, such as the ones who gave feedback on your alternative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/the-odyssey-plans\/\">Odyssey Plans<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your team meets, make sure you all follow simple and clearly defined rules to maximize the benefits of their role as co-creators of your life design. For example, you might specify that everyone needs to be respectful at meetings, provide constructive advice instead of criticism, and keep all team business private. Each meeting needs a facilitator to ensure the conversation remains focused and flows productively. The most natural person for this role is you. As facilitator, make sure everyone gets to speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Value of Mentors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If possible, include one or more mentors on your specific team. Or at least try to find one among your general team. <strong>Mentors are people who don\u2019t so much tell you what to think as help you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/think-for-yourself\/\">think for yourself<\/a> and sharpen your own insights and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/methods-of-decision-making-crucial-conversations\/\">decision-making<\/a>.<\/strong> They listen closely to what you say and help you reframe defective beliefs. When you have to make decisions (see Chapter 9), they help with your discernment process. Some people may be lifelong mentors to you. Others may only mentor you through a specific life period or on a specific topic. Scan through your relationships right now and see if you can identify any potential mentors. Then approach them and ask for their advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Gift of Community<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond serving as a life designing team, you may find that the group of people you gather turns into a genuine community, a group of individuals who are deeply invested in each other\u2019s life. If this happens, be grateful for such a gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Communities are characterized by such things as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/team-purpose\/\">shared purpose<\/a>, a habit of getting together regularly, and a core of shared values and attitudes. In a life designing community, there\u2019s also the added habit of talking together sincerely and openly about your lives, your dreams, and how you\u2019re trying to unite these in a lifelong experience of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/happiness-and-success\/\">happiness and success<\/a>. Having such a community is one of the best ways to ensure that your life designing efforts bear fruit and take you where you want to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can a team contribute to your life designing endeavors?
