What is Vision?
According to Merriam-Webster, vision is defined as, “the act of power of imagination.” When you apply vision to the future, you can create a mental picture that can be used to direct your actions.
Vision serves as a guide and can be used to provide a sense of purpose.
Vision -Your North Star
People without vision don’t know what goals to set for themselves, what direction to follow or what actions to take to attain their objectives.
In contrast, people with a vision know their destination before they begin their journey. Their vision is their compass, their North Star,the fixed guiding point they follow every step of the way.
They know exactly what they want to achieve. They recognize the potential of their exciting ideas; they can see, touch and feel their concepts as if they were holding them in their hands.
This sense that an idea is tangible enables others to connect with it immediately. Entrepreneurs must establish such connections,with investors, with customers and with employees in oder to move forward.
“Taking the first step is often the hardest part in an entrepreneur’s journey.”
Your vision should represent the ultimate accomplishment of your life or, at the very least, one of them.
Your vision should define your day to day life.
Shape your vision to be congruent with your personality and your personal strengths and assets and, if you’re an entrepreneur, never forget that your vision must be commercially relevant.
“There’s no market for a vision, no matter how brilliant, that lacks practical utility and commercial value. “
“You don’t know what will happen until you start, and action oriented people know there is no wrong way to start.”
Ground your vision in practical reality. Bounce your idea off people you trust who know what it takes to succeed.
Objective analysis is invaluable to entrepreneurs. Cultivate an acute “commercial sense.”
Entrepreneurs who lack a heightened sensitivity to profit making possibilities remain largely unfulfilled.
“Too many of us spend too much time worrying about the possible failure or rejection and the obstacles that could get in our way.”
What is your special vision?
What do you want to “build, create, accomplish or make happen”?
Whatever your vision may be, remember that it’s a precious gift. Never lose it.
A vision can consist of personal goals, physical health, career goals, educational goals, and any other aspects of life. No matter what aspect you choose to focus on, you can define and attain your vision with effort, determination, and focus.
Write your vision on paper right away. List your “checkpoints or goals,” even if you are not completely clear at this stage about what you want to do.
“If you don’t know where you’re going, how do you expect to get there?”
“Movement in many directions is not progress. It’s chaos.”
What you put on paper today may not seem exactly like the right idea, so bear in mind that this is only the earliest stage of your entrepreneurial quest.
The less complicated
your vision is at this juncture, the better. After you write your vision, prioritize the steps you need to take to bring it to life.
