Conclusion
Looking back and looking forward I feel I’m still heading in the right direction. Permaculture has inspired me to work in the direction quite some time ago. So to me it feels good to have laid out the goals I have for this year. I want to be a force for positive change in my community. I want to participate in creating right livelihoods and enhancing community connections. Branding my business will bring my perspective into the public eye more. Committing to a workshop series will highlight my expertise. Participating in or leading a PDC will root my passion for permaculture design and education. I look forward to reflecting on all of this at the end of the year and designing my next Learning Intentions and Pathway Design.
Process Reflection
I enjoy this process very much. It feels good to look ahead and design what I want to accomplish and how I’m going to get things done. It seems like I’ve done this several times already but it is really only my second ‘LIPD’. I believe it to be my best so far and it won’t be my last. I plan on using this process beyond my Gaia University experience and look forward to always refining the process. It might even start doing a general five-year plan as well as yearly LIPDs.
