Art of Lifecrafting

Have you ever found yourself awake at night, staring at the ceiling asking yourself "what the hell am I doing with my life?" Maybe you've had the thought while stuck in traffic during your morning commute, or crammed into a subway car with barely any room to breath. Or maybe it's happened while sitting on a beach, reading a book, when you're supposed to be enjoying your vacation.

It's so frustrating to feel this way when in truth now is the greatest time to be alive. Technology enables us to instantly connect with people all around the world, we have access to information about anything we're interested in at the tips of our fingers, almost anything can be delivered straight to our door, and travel is more accessible than ever before.

At the same time social media generates tons of FOMO, we have thousands of "friends" but no one we feel we can really talk to, and things in real life feel like they never look as good as they did in the pictures. Add to that a job market that squeezes every last drop of "productivity" out of employees but seeks to minimizes benefits, skills training, and long term job security and it's pretty easy to feel overwhelmed!

So what can you do?

You need to become a Lifecrafter. 

A Lifecrafter steps back and asks the big questions: "why am I here?", "where am I going?", "who do I want to become?"

A Lifecrafter has taken the time to define clear long-term visions for all aspects of their life so they know that the goals they are pursuing are pointing them toward their dreams. 

A Lifecrafter builds the systems and habits that enable them to craft their own reality, not live someone else's.

Of course, no one accomplishes anything great without some help. That's why I'm building a training program for ambitious young (or young-at-heart) people who want to learn a system for crafting their dream life. Although the program is currently in private development right now, I'm making two workbooks available for free that will give you a fantastic starting point for your lifecrafting journey.

Hey there. My name is Orian Marx. I was raised by artist parents in New York City. I was more interested in business and techie things, so I ended up becoming a computer programmer. My work has ranged from a string of flops working on various startups in the social media space to a lot of successes doing user experience consulting and developing software prototypes for large finance companies, government agencies, and trendy clothing retailers.

What I've discovered along the way is that I really enjoy working on helping people discover their underlying goals, passions, and curiosities. I believe we all have lots of untapped potential and tons of great dreams that often feel like they are destined to remain just that. My goal is to help people unlock the doors to making those dreams reality through careful reflection, inspired planning, and lots of action!
