Exercise #282: Self Knowledge
Posted 9/19/08

Recently, my husband and I finalized a Living Trust. Since we have no children, I think it was harder for us than for some people, and a few decisions were really hard to make.

If you don’t have a Will or Trust, today look at your life and possessions as if you were creating one. What would you leave, and who would you leave it to? If you already have one, see if it needs updating.

For “extra credit,” what would you change in this Will or Trust if you owned a Fortune 500 company?

As always, you may run a character through this exercise, rather than using if for self-analysis.

This self-knowledge exercise may give you incentive to really create that Will or Trust. They’re important!
