Unit 5: Legacy - Level 9

Legacy is the mark you leave on the world and the people in it.

Lessons

Beyond Your Lifetime

A purpose limited to your lifetime is truncated. Legacy isn't ego -- it's contribution that persists beyond your direct action.

Lesson 59

The Continuation Gap

Most people build value in themselves, not in systems or people. When they stop, it stops. Closing this gap requires a different kind of thinking.

Lesson 60

The Four Legacy Categories

Legacy planning addresses four categories: resources, knowledge, structures, and relationships. Each requires different work and different thinking.

Lesson 61

First Steps in Legacy Planning

Planning without action is fantasy. One document written, one conversation had, one system tested -- small steps compound into real legacy.

Lesson 62

Knowledge That Would Die with You

Part of mastery is transmission. You know things no one else knows. If that dies with you, it's not humility -- it's waste.

Lesson 63

Succession Thinking

Succession isn't just for CEOs. In your work, your family, your community -- who continues what you've started? The test of leadership is what happens after you stop.

Lesson 64

Beyond Personal Legacy

Personal legacy connects to universal values. The question expands from 'What will I leave?' to 'What does my life contribute to the whole?'

Lesson 65

Unit 5 Completion

Legacy planning isn't something you complete. It's something you maintain and update as life changes. Review what you've built and carry it forward.
