Create a vision that makes you want to jump out of bed in the morning
Great leaders and high achievers lead with a vision, whether in a team or in their personal lives.
A vision might be called a dream, mission or purpose. It’s a picture in your mind of your personal end destination – who you want to be, where you want to end up and what you want to be doing.
A vision is your why – it’s your purpose! It should be something that helps you start your day energised and inspired! Your vision describes the very best version of you.
A vision is not a goal. Goals and plans come later to make the vision a reality.
A personal vision is like a seed, once you plant it, it can grow into an enormous tree.
Here are some questions to help you uncover your personal vision:
Where would you like to be and what would you have liked to have accomplished 10 to 20 years from now?
Think of a mentor or a person who has had a significant influence for good in your life. What are some of their traits or characteristics that you admire?
In 50 years, how do you hope others will think of you and describe you?
One of the best ways to develop your vision is to look at your life through the lens of the roles in your life that matter the most, for example, personal, spouse, parent, property investor, your career…
Within each role, develop a short vision that describes your very best self in that role, starting with your personal vision.
If your vision doesn’t inspire or motivate you to be extraordinary, change it until it does!
Your challenge is to finish your vision for each of your roles before next Wednesday and put it in a place where you can see it often.
It all start with one simple decision. It all starts with YOU.
Still need more guidance? Here are two examples to get your creative juices flowing:
Personal: I choose to live a healthy, balanced lifestyle and I am in great physical shape. I am financially free with no debt or financial obligations to anyone.
Property Investment Trainer: I am a transformational trainer who sets the tone to inspire people to understand how to invest safely, effectively and profitably in assets that deliver on their financial goals. I guide people to invest in property with confidence and clarity through providing impartial information combined with expert knowledge.
PS: Next week we will develop goals aligned with our visions, see you there!
