JOURNAL...Journey and Nature PLANNING AND PREPARATION 1 Stage 1. Identify and List Problems, Objectives,
Goals, Resources ...and information sources...possible process of
realization 1.1 Early Preparation: Person, Place and
Arrangements With who, where, how! 1.2 Early Planning: Objectives and Needs 1.2.1 Start Begins with - previous Journey...initial concrete
ideas nine to six months2 ahead...allows processing to become aware of some
needs 1.2.2 The Basic Question What is the basic concept of J 98...mesh with
general process, goals? Wilderness, B/E, placement search, combine with J99
or J year? The journey for 1998 is similar to the fall
journeys I have done since 1985. It is a time for renewal - of my personal
energy and freshness toward life...and for the goals and ambitions of my
life. The objectives are 1. Nature: Being in nature, observing, physical
action and body, physical objectives...and relax, enjoy sun, nature,
health...and 2. Being and Its Elements - my fundamental projects...these
include dynamics of being, reality and vision in nature...and it is a time
for inspiration, reflection, elaboration and process toward production and
achievement on my fundamental goals, objectives and projects - Being and Its
Elements: a Personal and Universal Account - redefinition and delineation for
the coming year or more...in this case it is more. I begin to bring these
objectives into focus from six to two months ahead [Of course, there will already be explicit and
percolating ideas from the previous journey and my life. At about six months
ahead, I have worked on the ideas and inspiration from the previous journey
and will have a conception of the reality of the previous ideas, of
problems...and so am in a position to begin thinking concretely about the
upcoming journey. There may be some considerations, especially if I identify
significantly new needs - a new place, a cooperative journey... - that
require earlier preparation.] 1.3 Objectives of the Planning Process Since I have done this so many times a format or
template of objectives, preparation and journal has evolved Relative to this
a number of objectives arise. The first objective is to review what is new
and what changes are going to be made to the kinds of objectives and the
template What is the Journey for 1998 going to be? A
wilderness journey? Beyond J98? What is new this year: Being and Its Elements and
planning...B/E is the new version of EML etc. and is much more focused,
whole, integrates everything from the past and defines ambitiously and
programmatically the future...and the structure and planning are organized at
the highest level...of course, there is much to be done The second is to identify the specific objectives
for the trip. The main new specific objectives are [1] work on the structure
and format of B/E and its components, and [2] preparation for the next phase
of work of B/E...experience, writing and social action...and it appears that
this will require, as a first step, appropriate placement The third is the planning and preparation function
- making arrangements, making sure gear and transportation are available and
in working order. Finally there are special objectives. One goal is to
formalize and then automate the template of objectives, preparation and
journal 1.4 Resources The resources are previous planning as a template;
gear and transportation; vacation time from work; finances to maintain and
acquire gear and to buy supplies; persons who may travel with me or provide
assistance; agencies that may provide information. Since my Journeys are
ongoing, the resources to be identified are replacements and new needs that
have come up from the previous journeys 2 Stage 2: Allocate resources...includes planning
the plan ...and review, modification and upgrade of
planning principles as necessary About two or more months to a month ahead 2.1 Begin to think about a schedule and time for
detailed planning and preparation 2.2 Implement modifications to planning principles
and methodology Some may have been considered at stage 1 2.3 Detail resources - physical and B/E Gear and supplies...Short List of Supplies, Plans
and Equipment, Below Travel: truck.. Packing.. References/reading...per objectives Notes or “attachments”...Attachments or notes,
below 3 Stage 3: Organize the elements of the plan by
function 3.1 Outline ...main-, sub- and auxiliary elements ...objectives by concept and preparation by
category 3.2 Firm and detail the objectives Objectives, below 4 Stage 4: Planning: develop the plan. Use a
systematic approach ...a planning tool or framework such as the
Objectives-Time diagram or a more general version such as an
Objectives-Action Matrix. Implement Objectives Control ...for the journey, the itinerary is the tool or
template 4.1 Itinerary and contacts ...Itinerary, below 4.2 Ongoing Preparation...Add Dates * Mental: concept informally ongoing / at return

centering is ongoing and time / off two months ahead and at home begin a

ahead...water and supplies, laundry, garbage week to a day ahead * Gear and supplies, references and reading [3]
