A Guided Journal by Jeff Gaudette

Your children may inherit everything you own. But will they inherit everything you've learned?

A life worth appreciating. A story worth preserving. A legacy worth sharing.

Those Are Assets Too: The Family Legacy Journal book cover by Jeff Gaudette

Introducing The Journal

A Lifetime of Stories Worth Preserving

You’ve spent a lifetime accumulating experiences, lessons, values, and wisdom. Some of your most valuable assets aren’t things you can put a price on.

Those Are Assets Too is a guided journal designed to help you preserve those intangible assets in your own words, creating something meaningful for the people who matter most.

The most valuable things we leave behind aren't measured in dollars. They're the lessons learned, the values held, the stories only we can tell.

Those Are Assets Too is a guided journal created to help you capture the wisdom of a lifetime — gently, at your own pace, in your own words. It offers thoughtful prompts and quiet space to reflect on the experiences, people, and choices that shaped you, so that what you've learned can be passed forward.

What the Journal Holds

Space for the things that matter most

Stories & Experiences

The moments, milestones, and turning points that defined a life — recorded in your own voice.

Values & Lessons

The principles you've held, the wisdom you've gathered, and the lessons you hope to pass on.

Reflection & Voice

Gentle prompts that invite honest reflection — no pressure, no right answers, only your truth.

The Journal

A complete, standalone experience

The physical journal is designed to be everything you need — a quiet companion that walks beside you through the chapters of a life. No subscriptions, no sign-ups, no screens required. Just you, a pen, and the space to remember.

Optional companion resources are available on this site for those who'd like a little extra encouragement, but they are never required to complete the journal.
