Another New Year's Guide from your friends at MVMT.
Throughout 2012, Jullien Gordon, Michael Cordeo & I will release at least one video every month focused on great ways to use the guide.
An ebook version of the guide will remain FREE forever.
However, after we reach our first 1,000 downloads we'll also publish a limited edition print and bound version of the guide, and release a special audio book version. {smile}
The guide is organized to help you answer key questions.
This year, we encourage you to consider intentionally planning to build your personal capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital. We believe that as we develop these 4 capitals we gain the ability to create our D.R.E.A.M. Life. Which, as Jullien would say, means to have our "Desired Relationships, Employment, and Money."
Decisions are being made all over the world right now.
Make 2012 a year you make decisions that get you closer to actually accomplishing your goals.
The first step is writing them all down.
Watch the video.

Print it, quickly.
Complete it, honestly.
Share it, widely.

3. Thank you for downloading the MVMT New Year Guide. Last year was the first time we shared this
tool. After receiving astounding feedback from the hundreds of people who used it to evaluate
their 2010 and envision their 2011, we’re releasing an updated edition.
This year our theme is students of life. As MVMT MKRS, we are constantly learning about
ourselves, each other, our community, and the world. MVMT imagines most of this learning takes
place over food, in the reading of books, magazines, blogs, classes, dialogues with mentors, via
seminars, and in the moments of clarity that can come from stillness.
This year’s guide is organized around helping you to build your personal capital, intellectual
capital, social capital, and financial capital. As we develop these 4 capitals we gain the ability to
create our D.R.E.A.M. life, which means to have our Desired Relationships, Employment, and
Money.
Through our collective work at MVMT as consultants, coaches, event producers, teachers, writers,
marketers, brand managers, and performers, we are committed to helping every D.R.E.A.M.
awake and we hope that this year’s guide helps bring your D.R.E.A.M. to life.
Godspeed!
