	Rising Star Month Brochure January is World Wide Rising Star Month. It is dedicated to urging people to reach for the stars by designing a personal life plan. It takes place in January because that is the month that people can review the past year and design, revise, or redesign their life plan for the year. This world wide month promotes personal life planning by encouraging people to celebrate their past success and reach for the stars by looking toward their entire future success in year long blocks. The first year they celebrate the month by developing a plan that considers family, friendships, work, faith, education, health, sports, and entertainment. While every subsequent year they evaluate, modify, and institute their revised plan. So, every January people reach for the stars as they develop or revise their life plans. Here's the easiest way to build, revise, or rebuild your life plan: Review Your Life in the following areas: Immediate Family: Extended Family: Friendships: Organizations (professional and hobby): Work: Faith: Education: Personal Health (includes diet, rest, and exercise): Personal Sports (includes skiing, volleyball, golf, tennis, etc.): Entertainment (includes vacations, movies, plays, touring, etc.): Review Your Life in general.
