1. Define Your Legacy Vision

If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll drift through life without purpose. Your legacy vision is your “North Star” — the picture of how you want to be remembered.

Coach’s Tip:

• Grab a piece of paper and write down three words that describe how you want people to remember you.
  
  

• Imagine your 80th birthday — friends, family, coworkers are giving speeches. What would you want them to say? Write it out.
  
  

• Keep this vision where you can see it — on your desk, fridge, or phone wallpaper.
  
  

2. Live by Core Values Daily

Your core values are like guardrails on the road of life. They keep you from swerving off into choices you’ll regret.

Coach’s Tip:

• Pick 3–5 non-negotiable values (faith, honesty, family, service, health — whatever matters most to you).
  
  

• Every morning, ask yourself: “What’s one thing I can do today to live out my values?”
  
  

• Example: If “family” is one of your values, maybe that’s eating dinner together with no phones.
  
  

3. Prioritize Relationships Over Achievements

A big bank account or a shelf of awards won’t hug you at night or remember your laugh. Relationships are the heartbeat of a lasting legacy.

Coach’s Tip:

• Schedule non-negotiable time for your loved ones (date night, game night, walks together).
  
  

• Use your phone’s calendar to set reminders for birthdays, anniversaries, and “check-in” calls.
  
  

• Practice the “10-second rule”: If you think of something kind to say, say it right then.
  
  

4. Serve Beyond Yourself

True legacy builders don’t just live for themselves — they find ways to make life better for others.

Coach’s Tip:

• Pick a cause you care about and commit to serving it regularly.
  
  

• Look for small, everyday opportunities to serve: holding a door, buying lunch for someone, visiting a neighbor.
  
  

• Once a month, do something for someone who cannot repay you.
  
  

5. Build & Share Wisdom

Your story, your mistakes, and your victories hold power. Pass them down so others don’t have to learn everything the hard way.

Coach’s Tip:

• Keep a “Legacy Journal” — write down life lessons, family traditions, recipes, prayers, or meaningful stories.
  
  

• Record short videos telling your family stories.
  
  

• Teach the skills you know — whether that’s cooking, budgeting, or fixing a leaky faucet.
  
  

6. Steward Your Resources Well

Money, time, energy — these are tools that can strengthen your legacy or weaken it. Use them wisely.

Coach’s Tip:

• Create a simple budget and stick to it.
  
  

• Build an emergency fund, even if you can only put aside $25 a month.
  
  

• Protect your health — your energy is part of your gift to others.
  
  

• Make a will or estate plan to avoid unnecessary stress for your loved ones later.
  
  

7. Stay Consistent & Faithful

Legacy isn’t built in a weekend — it’s built in small, steady actions over years.

Coach’s Tip:

• Choose one habit from each of these steps and commit to doing it weekly.
  
  

• When you miss a day or a week, just restart.
  
  

• Keep your vision and values in plain sight to remind you why you started.
  
  

Final Word as Your Legacy Coach

You don’t have to be perfect, rich, or famous to leave a lasting mark. Legacy is not about what you own — it’s about how you live.

Start small. Stay consistent. Live intentionally.
And one day, your life won’t just be remembered… it will still be making a difference.
