Month of Building
Discipline, structure, practical work and foundations
How to calculate your Personal Month: Add your Personal Year number to the current calendar month (Jan=1, Feb=2 ... Dec=12), then reduce to a single digit. Example: Personal Year 6, in August (8): 6+8=14→1+4=5. You are in Personal Month 5.
Personal Month 4 is a month of practical work, discipline and building the structures that support your vision. The expansive joy of Month 3 gives way to the quiet, steady effort required to actually make things solid and lasting. This is not a glamorous month — but it is one of the most consequential, because what you build in Month 4 determines whether your vision has lasting roots.
