I am going to talk about planning, today. And not just about any planning…real true life<\/i> planning. The kind of planning that creates a life that is organized and on purpose.  <\/span><\/p>\n

There is a lot to be said about our birth order and the reasons why we do what we do. A fun book read that I just love is by, Kevin Leman, <\/span>The New Birth Order Book: Why You Are the Way You Are. <\/i>He had me figured-out, my husband down to a T, and I giggled all the way through it. It was also a great resource in understanding my children and explaining their different behavior, and having seven children, this was fun to read about.<\/span><\/p>\n

So how can our birth order effect how we plan our lives? Well, some women find planning as natural as breathing and find it an enjoyable experience, while there are others that find it difficult and too time consuming or don’t even like to plan at all. But one thing I know is for sure that we all can agree upon and that is the desire to be organized<\/i> and we can all learn how and become organized through life planning no matter what birth order we are!<\/div>\n

Here are some key components that only life planning can provide:  <\/i><\/div>\n
