What to Leave Behind Compass
What you want to leave behind, and today's seed
A sheet for picturing ahead of time what you want to leave behind for the far-off future.
You write separately the lessons you want to pass on, the things you want to make and leave behind, and how you want to be remembered.
So the answer doesn't have to be grand, there's a space at the end for writing down a small seed.
How it works
- Read the questions at the top, look far ahead, and slowly let it come to mind.
- In the boxes below, write the lessons you want to pass on, the things you want to leave behind, and how you want to be remembered.
- In the wide space, lay out why you wrote what you did.
- At the end, write the smallest seed you could plant today.
When · with whom
A quiet activity you do on your own. When people of different ages each write their own and compare, the conversation deepens too.
What to Leave Behind Compass
- Passing on — from what you've learned
- Making — built with your own hands
- Being remembered — far down the road
- Last, write down the smallest seed you could plant today.
