EP 274: Design the Master Plan for Your Life - Chris Wilson

A journey from prison to a life of purpose
​
One night defending himself Chris Wilson killed a man and was sentenced to life in prison with NO parole. His book "The Master Plan" is a memoir of a man who used hard work and a plan to turn a life sentence into a second chance. It's a journey of self-improvement, reading, working out, learning and even starting a business. Then he did the impossible. He convinced a judge to reduce his sentence and became a free man. Chris' story is a great story of redemption, change, study and being of true service.

  • What is the philosophy behind our Master Plan?
  • Chris shared his Master Plan with Judge Wood, his grandmother, and his lawyer. Is it important to share your Master Plan with others?
  • The Book Crushers
  • Chris gets out of prison at the age of 32. Did he fall into the comparison trap?
  • What is his endgame?
  • Why Chris sold the Corvette, something he dreamt of since a child?
  • His invitation to the White House and being denied entry by the Secret Service at the White House gate.
  • Does he carry any regrets?
  • If Chris could ask his Mum a question today to help him reconcile the past, what would it be?

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
