Optimize Your Life!, with endorsments by Dr. Stephen R. Covey and Mark Vistor Hansen, synergistically merges personal and organizational Strategic Planning. This book provides step-by-step text and user-friendly worksheets for addressing the major questions of one's life, starting with: Who am I? What am I doing now? What do I value? What am I good at? What are my passions? è What is a "successful" life to me? What are the "toxic" forces in my life? What do I want to have/do/be in my life? What is my risk tolerance? What do I need to do to "clean up" my life? These questions lead to other questions, answered so as to produce a personal inventory as well as Mission, Vision, and Values Statements and Goals. The unique concept is the reduction of each Goal into component Projects and then into a series of Tasks, each one of which is assigned a One-page Strategic Planner for its completion. The author, Bernhoff A. Dahl, M.D. is a physician, entrepreneur, speaker, and consultant who has successfully applied the power of Strategic Planning during twenty-five years of "in the trenches" medical group practice and a range of business ventures. He developed the One-page concept in 1981 and has successfully adapted it to both organizational and personal use. Optimize Your Life! is a self-development system that features a program for readers to define, improve, and accept themselves, and to apply to their organizations.
