What is Life Design? To me it is when when an individual carefully and strategically designs and crafts their own dream life and lifestyle and actualises that plan. I’m a strong advocator of Life Design and have been for most of my life.

We’ve all heard the now cliche phrases – ‘Dream big’, ‘Work smart and not hard’, ‘Keep your dreams alive’. For nearly everyone it’s a struggle, so via this blog I will aim to share the how-tos of what I did to acheive my life design and the lessons I’ve learned from others.

Desiree Banugo’s Life Design:

• Work 9 months of 12 like at school – CHECK!
• Be able to pick and choose my own contracts and negotiate what I get paid – CHECK
• Minimise my tax bill by seeking the best advice and make more money in the process – CHECK
• Take extended holidays where and when I choose – CHECK
• Start in property investing – CHECK
• Start to transform my freelancing company into a full business concern – CHECK

and it doesn’t stop there, but that’s just a taster. There will also be some other thoughts and learnings, information and knowledge that I’d like to share too so look out for those  posts in the future.

Take some time to answer these questions and visualise your goals when you get there.

• What is your life design?
• What do you want to achieve/possess/experience  in your lifetime?
• How will you get there?
• Is anything or anyone holding you back from achieving those goals?
