Plan · yourself

Lead yourself first.

The published V-R-G-T method (values, roles, goals, tasks) applied to your own life. The Leadership theme teaches the method; this page is where you do the work. Each wizard saves what you write to this device so you can step away and come back.

Values · what pulls you

What pulls you

These eight nudges are drawn from the Reiss motive profile, restated for the Craft. Pick the two or three that pull at you right now. They're not labels, and they can change anytime. Read chapter 50 (Values) first if you want the longer frame.

Mission

Your personal mission statement

Covey's published 8-step method from chapter 54. Work through it once over a few sittings; the wizard saves each step so you can leave and come back. Most men find it useful to draft in week one, sit with it for a few days, then return to step 8 and revise.

Strategic plan

Three to five years out

The bridge from mission (timeless) to SMART goals (this year). Pick a horizon, picture yourself at it, name the three pillars that get you there, and lay year-by-year milestones. Pair with chapter 52 and chapter 73.

SMART Goals

Goals tied to roles and a why

The published SMART criteria (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound) plus a role and a why. Add one goal at a time; the wizard walks you through each criterion in turn. Pair with chapter 52.

Tasks

Daily and weekly practice

The published 24-inch-gauge practice (chapter 53) lives on the Do surface: one entry per day across service, vocation, and refreshment, with a streak counter once you've logged a few days in a row. Plan is where you decide which tasks belong in each part of the gauge; Do is where you mark them down.

For each role you named in the mission wizard, ask: what's the recurring task that proves the role is real? A weekly call with the brother you mentor. A monthly dinner with your spouse. The Friday Lodge-prep block. Write them down, short and two-minute-rule scoped, then put them on your calendar.
