This magnifying telescope empowers your ability to see and enriches your enjoyment of this elevated perspective. Likewise, your own personal vision that declares your purpose in life will magnify your ability to see life through a positive perspective. Furthermore, having your vision will enrich your enjoyment of life. As the proverb states, "Where there is no vision, the people will perish."
Vision can be defined as a declaration of purpose. This purpose could be specific for a leader and an organization or a CEO and his business. Or, a vision could mark the overall lifestyle and influence a person wants to leave on this earth. Regardless, a vision gives purpose and the following:
- An Ideal - A vision declares the end result or outcome you wish to pursue. It creates a clear understanding in one's mind of what he or she is trying to become.
- A Direction- A vision provides a clear focus and direction for each day. Stepping out the front door into reality each day is met with a clear road map on where one is trying to go.
- A Rationale - A vision gives a reason for your chosen activities. Without a vision, one might fall prey to the "going though the motions" syndrome.
- A Filter - A vision provides a framework when making difficult decisions. A vision clarifies what types of activities to take on.
All great leadership starts with a vision. The vision is what clarifies the message of influence the leader is communicating to those who follow. Without this clear direction, the leader will be leading people down a path with no expected end, possibly to the "peril" of the program.
What vision are you living by?
I totaly agree the vision is important just like the video of the event and process the vision relates to the process because it takes a period of time. good blog !
ReplyDeleteFor a vision you need an event to occur, and process is the vision, as the video and Wade both said. In a vision you have to have the end in mind, and see yourself reaching it. When the appropriate steps are met you have the direction that you need to go.
ReplyDeletebasically a vision is having an idea of what you want to happen in your life. and without one, you are prone to be a follower, and not getting anywhere in life. great blog.

ReplyDeleteYou have to know what you're aiming for before you can hope to reach it, that's what a vision is, it's what you're always keeping in mind with everything you do.
ReplyDeletei think that a vision makes a good leader and helps them to decide whats right and there vision could change there life in a positive way
ReplyDeleteThis is a great poent. If you do not have a vision, it is like you are just just spending time until death occures and not living life until death. Leaders are made and if you want to be one, you have to have a vision. A plan for the future and you should folow it without any fears.

ReplyDeleteI think if you have a vision you don't feel as lost because you know what needs to be done in order to reach your goal. I've noticed in my life that if I don't have a vision I tend to get caught up in what I have to do and lose more and more time in getting to my goal. Then I tend to get discourged because I'm not seeing any progress.
ReplyDeleteman this sucks being the last one to comment every one took my ideas.
ReplyDeleteBut i definitely agree with AJ you have to have your vision or idea in mind and have it all planned out so you can be a effective leader for you peers.
lol joe guess your not the last one but yea it does suck that everyone has taken my idea and i agree with what they say.
ReplyDeleteI agree with joe, if u dont have your vision in sight you won't get anywhere
ReplyDeleteI think visions are a key to success. You have to see what your trying to accomplish or you won't know if you have reached it. They can be small or big visions just as long as your realize you have to start it in little pieces and put everything together and not try to get it done in a day, it takes time.
ReplyDeleteYou always need to keep what is important in sight as well, if your goals comprimise something more important then your goals then drop everything and do the other thing.
ReplyDeleteI think it's realyy important to have direction...
ReplyDeleteTo know WHERE are you going.
WHY are you going there.
And WHAT you need to do to get there.
My direction is a close-knit family, 4 kids: 3 girls and a boy.
This is where I'm going in my life. But also there are less important than family but still major things for me. Umm... Education and career for example.=)
Well, my vision is an IDEAL. The poin is that I'm quite an artistic person and it's easy for me to see the result I want, so I'm comparing all the time to reach the goal, my ideal...
