Bringing people to a better life 5
So let’s take a closer look at your inevitable next 10 years.
Getting a developed perspective of life yet to be lived is like looking at the picture on the box of a jigsaw puzzle before starting to put the pieces together. Most people spent their last 10 years taking actions (putting pieces together) and then look at what sort of picture they have built. Generally some parts look okay and other parts look terrible, taking away from the good parts.
We believe that with consistent and considered small steps, anyone can achieve the picture they want to see on their Life’s Jigsaw box. By assessing “the inevitable next ten years” we mean that it doesn’t matter what you do, ten years will inevitably go by whether you do something to create a balanced life or not.
Let’s start…..USING THE TABLE ON THE NEXT PAGE:
List the current ages of the people in your family in the current ages column;
List all the ages 10 years ago in the first column;
List your ages 10 years from now in the “Ages in 10 years” column;
In the same column, add the age of any likely additions to the family such as Spouse, children, grandchildren;
List your ages 20 years from now in the “Ages in 20 years” column.
Take this first step to assessing your next inevitable 10 years.

Taking a look at your life in decades usually provides an
interesting picture to think about.
7Bringing people to a better life
To see where you are now let’s take a look at your current Balance Analysis.
Consider the questions which go with the balance areas below.
Review the “Balance Analysis Current Position” to get an honest view of what needs work in your life today.
Mark each topic as:
Great - No change neededOk - Satisfactory but needs change soonNeeds work – Needs change urgently.
Of the areas that need work write down in order what is most important for you to fix first?
BALANCE ANALYSIS. WHERE ARE WE NOW?
GIVE TIME TO ALL AREAS ONGOING OR WE WILL GIVE TIME IN THE FUTURE IN CRISIS MODE.
Great OK Needs work
PRIORITY
Time - Sufficient uncommitted time?
Relationships - Trusted personal & professional relationships?
Income - Excess funds every week?
Expenditure - No unpaid bills?
Planning - A clear plan for all areas of your life?
Personal Development - Read, Listen, Associate - Personal knowledge to support your life decisions?
Health & Fitness - Sufficient health & fitness for your family?
Hobbies & Interests & Holidays - Sufficient hobbies and interests and holidays?
Home - Home to suit your needs and lifestyle?
Investment - Sufficient genuine investment for your future?
Business – Multiple Incomes - Several incomes with flexible time?
Speculation - Clear understanding of the risk of speculating?

People generally know the truth about their challenges, but until that TRUTH is made TRANSPARENT to their spouse and a trusted third party, the areas that are letting people down are rarely addressed.
BWC Resource Centre has been the Trusted third party for many individuals and couples over the last decade helping people to think clearly and do what is required next.
Now that you have taken a quick look at the balance areas, take a moment to reflect on your current position.
REAL LIFE STORY:
For me the areas that collectively brought the whole picture down were:
• I wasn’t giving time to planning and monitoring each area;• I had not developed a trusted third party relationship who I could run my thoughts past to get their perspective and wisdom;• My money management was poor. I felt if I needed more I would just make more. (so dumb);• I let my home and investment become at risk to business failure; and• I continually increased our exposure to business and lifestyle debt.
With the people and understanding I have today a few simple different choices would have made all the difference.

BALANCE ANALYSIS. NEXT STEPS
5 Essentials:DESIRENothing is achieved without desire. If you are a couple, one may be the visionary and it is important that the visionary is supported
WORK ETHICAlso nothing is achieved without hard work. Some people are creator workers and some are manager workers. As a couple one is likely to be the visionary and one the orderly one. Work together.
OPPORTUNITY TO MATCH DESIRE If you do not currently have the opportunity to match your desire talk to the BWC team to discuss other possibilities that may be available.
COACHESSporting teams at all levels would not consider competing without a head coach and specific coaches for strengthening, speed etc and they train a few nights a week and play once or twice per week. We play life 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
TEACHABILITYOnly when we realise others have been where we want to go, do we become teachable. We can learn from them saving time, finances and anxiety. It takes humility but the rewards are outstanding.
LIFE IS LIVED FORWARDS BUT UNDERSTOOD BACKWARDSOf the 5 essentials for success listed below Desire, Work Ethic and an Opportunity will take people forward however having Coaches and being Teachable gives us understanding and wisdom going forward.
• The BWC Training program will take you through 12 topics delivered over a 3 month period.
• The cycle is repeated reviewing the foundations and adding advanced learning within each topic.
• The repetition creates habit which leads to a culture of outstanding personal management.
• This becomes the foundation on which successful investments and business are built.

“When I started with BWC Resource Centre I thought that most of the
information was fairly straight forward and I struggled to understand the
benefits. It was only after I gave it a real go for a while that
I realised that I was looking at a lot of areas of my life with the wrong context.
The BWC Resource centre has taught me a lot about how to
prioritise, communicate with my wife about investing and think more clearly about where I want to be in the future” Hamish Ferguson 39
Financial Planner
“What a great program. When I first heard of the BWC Resource Centre I had lost control of my time, work had taken over and I didn’t seem to have time for my family, myself, my hobbies and the fun things in life. I knew what I wanted but kept straying from the path as the day to day things took up my time. I had even tried other programs, some in wealth
creation… the quick fix, and others in personal management. Each time I started off okay but soon fell off the wagon. The missing link was ongoing personal support.
My biggest wake up call was looking at “the inevitable next ten years”. I didn’t want to be doing the same things at 53!
That scared me…. Through regular contact with my coach and learning how to pause, reflect and plan, my life is a lot more balanced now and I am enjoying each moment rather
than letting it rush past in an unorganised blur. With regular reflection on the past six months, I am more aware and able to plan for the next six months. I still have a way to go
though, and with the ongoing support of my personal coach I am developing plans for a fun, balanced and wealthy life.” Jennylee Taylor 43 Project Manager
“It seems a strange part of human nature that you can know something, understand it, recommend it to clients and provide
advice in respect of it, but fail to apply it to your own circumstances.
A bit like mechanics having broken down cars, plumbers having leaking taps etc. By starting the programme, it has, on more than one occasion, forced me to be honest with myself and realise that it is important to practice what you preach
and apply those principles to your own circumstances, regardless of your level of expertise, education or income.” Sean Shotter 36 Solicitor
“We are so thankful that we discovered BWC at
the time we did. We originally needed to concentrate on time management issues, but an
unexpected financial crisis occurred and this revealed both the flexibility and holistic
nature of the coaching program. We are now mostly through the crisis and are
feeling confident about the future. The program itself is only one contributing factor to the overall success experienced. The personal trust that quickly developed in the growing friendship provided much needed emotional support during testing
times. I have recommended BWC to others who have similarly benefited.
Thank you Chris, Heather and BWC!” David 58 & Tuula Schaeffer
State Chairman
As is often the case, one doesn’t seek help until a crisis is upon them.
In my case I was heavily in debt on a dual occupancy development that was going south very quickly, it was my first attempt at property development and of course I was lacking some of the necessary skills, knowledge and connections.
Thankfully my mortgage broker recognised my predicament and organised a meeting with the BWC team. That’s when it all changed and the situation started to rapidly improve! Although I had to extract myself from the development and in the process cop a reasonable loss, BWC advice and coaching ensured that
I not only survived but came out in good shape, and has also helped lay a foundation on which my partner and I can forge ahead into a bright future. It’s
just over 2 years since the “world came tumbling down”, yet we are already looking at our next investment or development opportunity and I have never felt
more in control.” Geoff Yeatman 40 Aircraft engineer
Before we were introduced to the BWC resource centre we had made many starts to achieving our life goals but could never seem
to get past a certain point. We had a good relationship, a good foundation, and knew some of the principles that would help us
achieve, but could not practically apply them in an effective way. In a moment of desperation, after another false start, we rang BWC and were given powerful life and wealth creation principles that we could see and work with. We were teamed up with an excellent coach and quickly identified were we had been going wrong and how we could
grow. We have not looked back! Jason and Rachel Squires
“When we started the program we perceived wealth creation to only involve the financial dimension. However in the last
six months we have identified wealth to be multi-dimensional involving relationships, time and lifestyle.
BWC reshaped our thinking and has empowered us to prosper not only financially but importantly in our marriage, in our friendships and in our
communication about the future. We can now tangibly see a platform for our life to flourish. BWC has been an important tool for our dreams to materialise.”
