Why Your Vision for Post-Divorce Life is Essential

Most men and women going through the divorce process feel like their future is clouded by uncertainty, to say the least. But it doesn’t have to be that way. You will discover that there is life after divorce. And you deserve to have the life you want.

Here’s what I tell my clients: create your vision for who you want to be, who you want to become, and who you are going to be when your divorce is over. This is an incredibly important part of your divorce strategy because it will a) get you through the tempest and storms that can cloud any divorce process and b) help you make divorce decisions that support the outcomes you have in mind.

So write down what your life after your divorce will look like, create a vision board, or keep a consistent mental picture in your mind. You’re going back to being a single person and you’ll have a lot of other freedoms as well. Picture it, and you’ll be on your way to making it happen.

Remember, the outcome of a successful divorce is not about “controlling” your soon to be ex; it’s about maintaining control of yourself and your life for the best results possible for you and your children going forward.

If you’d like to schedule a consultation with one of our family law attorneys, please call (206) 547-1486.
