Ask yourself this question as you work through the different components of the VS4 model below:
As we live intentionally, for the kingdom, and for the gospel, how can international living lead to intentional planning and saving for retirement?
Vision
Paint a Picture of who you want to be.
Use words, images, or even pull out a canvas and use some real paint!
This step is all about having a dream for what you want retirement to look like and visualizing what that future looks like.
Strategy
Create a plan that is aimed at your desired "Tomorrow."
Jot down some steps or actions you'll need to take.
What resources are you lacking to reach your "Tomorrow"?
- Think through ways you can obtain those resources.
- Do you need more education, more time, more ways to save money?
Structure
Make time to execute your plan.
Look at your calendar and think through - Is a monthly check-up helpful to stay on track? Or quarterly?
Schedule another 15-30 minute time to look back at this diagram and update it within the next 1-3 months.
Systems
Take small steps each day so it becomes a habit.
What steps do you need to take to create/sharpen your financial saving habits?
Support
Take time to evaluate how your plan is going (prior to this exercise).
What key indicators would indicate to you that your are being successful in your planning and saving?
Review those key indicators.
As you circle back on this model in future check-up times, continue evaluate how your plan is going.
What tweaks are needed to be successful?
