It took 11 years, but I reached my goal

Intellectual Will: A Guided Journal

Blueprint for (over)thinkers. The Intellectual Will is a goal attainment blueprint for visionary (over)thinkers who are dealing with uncertainty and need to organize their thoughts so they can build their visions and pass along their ideas.

INTELLECTUAL WILL powered by Lima Pea Co.Merissa G. | Construction Professional

On October 17th 2017, I wrote a one-pager for a friend after he asked me "how do I get organized?" That question led me down a rabbit hole as I tried to answer the question for him. The one-pager turned into a longer document. The longer document turned into a workshop. Finally, that workshop turned into a journal.

It is fitting that the journal is available for purchase this October.

Writing a book has been on my bucketlist since 2010 and I did it. I wrote a story and I packaged it up for sale.

This entire process has been rooted in my value of supporting a diversified supply chain.

• My designer and copyeditor are both Black women.
• My project strategist is a woman, my beta readers are young POC or women, and my printer is a worker-owned cooperative (and a Union) located in Brooklyn.
• One of my values is giving back. I believe in giving back to pioneers of liberation; those who believed in people over profit. 8% of profits are donated to Grown in Haiti, a Haiti-based organization that promotes reforestation and community development.

The Intellectual Will is a blueprint for visionary (over)thinkers. I have a goal of getting this journal in 1000 people's hands. Can you help me reach that goal?

Thank you,

***Lisa-Marie, Ph.D.
