Understanding your Life Cycle Phase and Your Important Choices
While individuals going through life can know ahead of time the experience that they're probably going to encounter, they can't know exactly what going through that experience is going to be like until they go through it.
However, they can get good guidance and good principles for dealing with them from those who have successfully gone through them before. That is why mentoring is so important; to navigate this life cycle well.
It's important to know where you are in that life cycle, where the people you who matter to you most are in their life cycles, and then seek out good principles for dealing with the most important things that will be coming at you and them.
I suggest that you look and see where you are and what's likely to come over the next 10 years, which you probably can pretty well vision, visualizing by seeing how the typical life cycle goes and also modifying the picture for your own circumstances.
You can gain good principles from dealing with most of the things that are going to come at you because they happen to many people before, in many lifetimes before, and good principles are available from many wise people who have successfully gone through these things.
