Practicing Vision

 How to Practice Vision

 
When I coach organizations and individuals on the importance of vision, I tell them to start their visionary thoughts with the words “I see…”  “I see…” statements are followed by vision thoughts that are:

  • Intense – vision invokes strong feelings.
  • Personal – vision is unique to the one envisioning.
  • Vivid – vision often takes on the properties of a mental picture.
  • Passionate – vision is something that we must do. 

Stepping back and contemplating vision has birthed businesses, started great philanthropic works and helped people like you and I understand our own personal life mission. Jonathan Swift wrote “Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.”  I have found this process to be nothing short of POWERFUL!

 

"Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion." Jack Welch
