What do the following things have in common?

Customized clothing.

Customized jewelry.

Customized home.

If you said or thought that they command a higher price then you’re correct.

But why do they cost more?

What’s the additional value behind a customized item?

The reason a customized item commands a higher price and has added value is that it’s made specifically for your individual preferences. Customizing takes additional time, attention to detail and requires advance planning.

What if you adopted the idea of customization and applied it to your life?

What if you took just a little additional time to pay attention to the details of your life and added some advance planning?

Maybe the result would be a customized life. A life designed to bring additional value to you.

How much time and effort would it take to customize your life?

The short answer and unsatisfying answer is, it depends. It depends because life circumstances are unique to all individuals. But that doesn’t mean you should lose hope.

If you really want a life that tailored to your desires and dreams then consider spending time thinking about what’s important to you and then planning your time to customize your days. While there’s no guarantee that time spent planning will result in you living the life you want, it does significantly increase the odds in your favor.

So spend some time and start customizing your life today. Invest the time and effort in planning your days and years. The reality is that if after spending time planning and customizing your life doesn’t yield results you’re seeking, then you can always go back living a regular, off the rack, unplanned life.
