STEP TWO —  Outline the Steps

Creating an outline of your unique steps to obtain and collect to be showcased in your Legacy is an import aspect of the process.

  • List important points to be highlighted
  • What pictures, music other items that will be important to be included?
  • List out where items are, and how to bring them to a digital file or provide to be scanned by MY LEGACY TREE
  • Who has item they could help tell the story?
  • Perhaps they can scan for you and send.
  • We use www.WeTranfer.com to transfer files. Free.

This outline will help guide you, moving the process forward. Setting target dates is also helpful.

Ask Family and Friends

Reach out to those close to you – see if they have items that will help tell your story.

Each Chapter of items Should be Packaged in Separate Envelopes or Folders

When gathering items – it is important to separate into their respective Chapter

  • Put items of key moments into their own envelope. (Do not use folders, things can fall out)
  • Digital files — create folders of the special moments, years, events etc.
  • Keep the digital files in their respective folder. Do not have items placed in wrong folders.

Organization is key to bringing your story together. If needed, the Legacy Guide can assist in this area when needed. it is also important to only included items that you would consider putting into your Legacy. Do not include anything that you do not want presented.
