The 15 Journal Prompts
1. The Vision Quest
Prompt: What is my vision? If I could build anythingβa business, a movement, a legacy, a lifeβwhat would it be? Describe it in vivid detail. What does it look like 5, 10, 20 years from now?
Why this matters: The King always starts with vision. You can't build what you can't see.
Go deep: Don't limit yourself to "realistic." What's the BOLD vision?
2. The Strategic Roadmap
Prompt: How do I get from here to my vision? What are the major milestones? What needs to happen in the next 90 days, 6 months, 1 year, 5 years?
Why this matters: Vision without strategy is just fantasy. The King creates the roadmap.
Action: Create an actual strategic plan. Write the milestones. Set the timeline.
3. The Mastery Inventory
Prompt: What have I mastered? What skills, knowledge, or capabilities do I genuinely possess at a high level? Where am I already a king?
Why this matters: The King knows his competencies. This isn't arroganceβit's accurate self-assessment.
Evidence: What results prove your mastery? What have I built or achieved?
4. The Competence Gap
Prompt: What capabilities do I need to develop to execute my vision? What skills, knowledge, or resources am I missing? How will I acquire them?
Why this matters: The King is honest about gaps and strategic about filling them.
Plan: For each gap, create a specific development plan with timeline.
5. The Leadership Style
Prompt: What kind of leader am I? How do I inspire and mobilize others? What's my unique leadership gift? When have I led well, and what was I doing?
Why this matters: The King leads in his own way. Know your style so you can leverage it.
Reflection: Do I lead by vision, by example, by strategy, by inspiration? All of the above?
6. The Tyranny Check
Prompt: Am I leading or dominating? Do I empower others or control them? Do I listen to input or demand obedience? Am I serving my vision or my ego?
Why this matters: The King's shadow is tyranny. Honest self-assessment prevents it.
Feedback: What would the people I lead say about my leadership style?
7. The Empire Audit
Prompt: What am I currently building? Is it aligned with my vision? Is it sustainable? Will it outlast me? What needs to change?
Why this matters: The King builds for legacy, not just short-term wins.
Assessment: Am I building an empire or just staying busy?
8. The Team Question
Prompt: Who do I need on my team to execute this vision? What roles, skills, or perspectives am I missing? How will I attract and empower talented people?
Why this matters: The King knows he can't build alone. Strategic team-building is essential.
Action: Identify the top 3 roles you need to fill. Start recruiting.
9. The Execution Audit
Prompt: Am I executing my vision or just talking about it? What have I actually built? What results have I created? Where is there a gap between vision and action?
Why this matters: The King is measured by results, not intentions.
Honesty: If your vision isn't manifesting, why not? What's blocking execution?
10. The Strategic Priorities
Prompt: What are my top 3 strategic priorities right now? What must I focus on to move my vision forward? What do I need to say no to?
Why this matters: The King is ruthlessly strategic about priorities. Not everything is equally important.
Clarity: Write your top 3. Everything else is secondary or delegated.
11. The Authority Question
Prompt: Do I own my authority? Do I step into leadership confidently or hesitantly? What would change if I fully claimed my power?
Why this matters: The King doesn't ask permission to lead. He owns his authority.
Reflection: Where am I still seeking external validation instead of trusting my mastery?
12. The Legacy Vision
Prompt: What do I want to leave behind? What will people say about my leadership and impact? What do I want my empire to become after I'm gone?
Why this matters: The King builds for generations, not just his lifetime.
Vision: Describe your legacy in detail. What endures?
13. The Resilience Test
Prompt: What challenges or obstacles am I facing in building my vision? How am I responding? What would the most masterful version of me do?
Why this matters: The King's mastery is proven in how he handles adversity.
Strategy: For each challenge, create a strategic response plan.
14. The Visionary Communication
Prompt: How do I communicate my vision? Can others see what I see? How can I inspire them to join me in building it?
Why this matters: The King must make others see and believe in the vision.
Practice: Write your vision statement. Practice articulating it clearly and inspiringly.
15. The King's Vow

- I vow to execute with competence and integrity
- I vow to lead by empowering, not dominating
