Sustainability is becoming a new buzz word and most recently, the word sustainability has recently been linked to business. However, yesterday, while visiting with a client in my role as a personal consultant, we explored sustainability as it relates to individuals and lifestyles. While sharing our service offerings, she asked, "What is a personal sustainability plan?" A personal sustainability plan is a lifestyle shift and commitment to making and sustaining a change in your life that you can be inspired and passionate about. Although comprehensive in nature , it can include anything from riding a bike to work or using eco-friendly office supplies to eating organic healthy meals or recycling. It can also be about achieving a personal goal, sustaining it, and building from that platform.
An effective long-term personal sustainability plan involves more than implementing mainstream sustainability concepts into daily living. Personal sustainability is a continuous improvement process that challenges an individual to constantly expand personal eco awareness. In addition, individuals who experiment with different sustainability concepts can identify the practices that add specific value to their own life.
Just thinking about sustainability or even a sustainable lifestyle can be daunting subject to anyone when viewed in its entirety. By making changes that are inspiring and manageable relative your current life, the process of incorporating sustainability becomes much easier. Taiga Company offers personal consulting that can help you build a personal sustainability plan that is right for you.
