What You Need to Move Forward

Answers: What do I need to get there?
How to get what you need to do what you need to do. This is about identifying and obtaining the things you need to move forward… the tools, time, talents, permission, resources, or whatever else you need.
lesson 1
Introduction
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, you will be able to define your own space, shape it, and overcome obstacles
that threaten to hold you back whether they are temporal, physical, social, internal, or emotional.

Resources are critical to our ability to achieve the things we desire. Yet if not accessed and used in the right way, both an abundance and a scarcity of resources could get in the way.
Space is balancing the resources we need and having access to them when and where we need them. Nature holds important lessons about accessing and balancing resources.
lesson 2
Overview
Space Definition
Space is one part of the 16 Elements model.
Consider the 16 Elements when identifying resources that we need to move forward on the path to our objectives.
Space in the Assemble Pillar
All the resources that we need to accomplish our objectives will not fall into our lap at exactly the right time.
It is important to think in advance about what we will need and be intentional about planning to acquire and assemble those needed resources.
lesson 3
Utilizing Resources
MacGyver It
Interestingly, sometimes the presence of a constraint stimulates creativity, innovation, and growth. We may discover something that makes all the difference, simply because
we do not have all the resources we need whenever we need them. The key is to identify clearly our current and future limitations so that we can figure out the most effective response.

Anticipate the Barriers
Constraints limit what you can do while highlighting what is most important. Whether at work or at home, constraints force you to choose a course of action. Will you engage, give up, or change the plan? It’s easy to hide behind a constraint and say, “I can’t, because…”; but when you embrace the challenge, constraints can show you a way forward.
lesson 4
Intentional Progress
Intentionality
When the situation we find ourselves in is less than optimal, it is important to be thoughtful about how we use the Space we have.
Sometimes that means saying no to those things that are less than ideal; but sometimes it means pushing through instead of waiting for a more ideal circumstance.
Busy vs Progressing
Busy is not necessarily meaningful!
Do not let busyness get in the way of progress.
lesson 5
Conclusion
Space Conclusion
Space is all about understanding “what’s holding me back?” and “what do I need to get through?”
When we identify current and potential constraints and needed resources, we can continue to move forward.
