What is The Architecture of Freedom?

What is the Architecture of Freedom?
I once read that words create worlds, and by better understanding the meaning behind certain words, we come to better understand ourselves and the world around us. As a result, we open up new worlds within us.
So, before getting into the attributes that make up the Architecture of Freedom, I think it’s important to fully understand the words that make up this system.
To start, the word “architect” comes from the Latin root word architectura, which roughly translates to “master builder,” “builder,” “carpenter”, “chief,” or “leader.”
While the primary use of the word “architecture” is usually applied to the building environment, the word has also come to signify the discipline and art of creating a plan of any object or system that has many complex parts.
Put in other terms, the word “architecture” defines the structure and/or behavior of any system that is or has been created, whether a building, a musical symphony or series of related ideas.
Boiled to its essence, architecture is the activity of designing or creating any kind of system that preserves the relationships among the elements or components that make up that system.
So then you may ask, what are the elements?
There are many different meanings to the word elements. But in this case we will focus on just one.
The simplest description of the word “elements” is “the essential parts or principles of which anything consists.”
In the example of the Architecture of Freedom, elements are simply the building blocks that when combined make up the system as a whole. This system becomes known as the Architecture of Freedom.
So now that we better understand the words that will make up the Architecture of Freedom, we go back to our original question: what is the Architecture of Freedom?
The Architecture of Freedom is a system of elements each with their own components, that when applied and acted upon are designed to create freedom in one’s life on three distinct levels:
Financial Freedom- having enough automatic income coming into one’s life so as to cover all the expenses that need to be met to achieve one’s primary aim.
Time Freedom- owning one’s time completely through creating systems in life and business that give the owner complete control over their time and schedule.
Geographic Freedom- having the ability to live and/or travel anywhere one desires without restrictions based on the first two freedoms. This is done by starting with the end in mind and creating a business that once built can be operated from any place in the world.
So the Architecture of Freedom is a system of components and building blocks known as elements that work together to create the outcome of the three freedoms stated
above.
There are 7 elements that make up the system. They are as follows:
The element of clarity
The element of direction
The element of vision
The element of creation
The element of action
The element of systemization
The element of realization
Essentially the Architecture of Freedom is a process that takes one from a place of first gaining clarity and understanding of their primary aim to finding and developing a business vehicle that will help them achieve it. This process finally systemizes the business so that it operates profitably without them, thus achieving the three freedoms.
The purpose of this blog is to dissect each of these elements in much more detail to help guide you through this life-changing process. These are the same processes that any business coaching program is going to take you through, and many of them will charge you several thousand dollars. However, you get it here for free. I look forward to interacting with you and helping you on your path to achieving more time, money and freedom.
