Enrollment into the I Ho Chuan includes coming up with your own personal requirements, these help define the journey as your own. They are a way for you to become creative and achieve something you may have wanted to all your life, just with the added bonus of having accountability to your team.
A good amount of thought should be put into your personal requirements. It should be something that creates a positive impact on your life, a unique experience or new skill are good examples.
My favorite personal requirement from this year was my motorcycle trip through the U.S. and Canada. It was a spiritual experience that I am proud to have shared with my dad. To travel 20,000 km in less than two weeks on a motorcycle is no small feat. The general response when I tell someone about it is "Why?, That is just insane!". My thought is why not? It's one of those things that you attempt just to say you could. I will cherish my memories of this trip.
The personal requirements have also been a great tool to motivate myself to read more. I have read more books in the past 4 years than I have my entire life beforehand and it feels amazing!
Dig deep into what you want from your requirements. The more that you put into them, the more you will get out of them.
