What is vision?
We all have different definitions of vision. We might refer to it as the ability to see, or an imaginary thing that people think of and want to achieve, we could also define it as an ideal or a goal toward which one aspires. Well all these definitions are correct but then there is more to vision than just sight or whatever it is we refer to it as. There is a different definition that hits the right spot.
Now vision can be anything we want it to be but according to Myles Munroe vision is the ability to see farther than your physical eyes can look, to see not just what is but also what can be and make it a reality. This definition has in-depth meaning.
Vision is the ability to see farther than your physical eyes can look, that is farther than sight. To see things beyond the physical. To see not just what is but also what can be and make it a reality. That is vision is the ability to not just see that this is or already is but to also be able to see what can be, what can be made from this or that and make it a reality. Meaning that after you have seen what can be, you don't just believe that it can be but you have to work towards making it a reality. Then and only then can we say you have defined vision and created an example of what vision is.
We hope that from today, you will define your vision and start working towards making it a reality.
Often times, we believe that there is somebody or something somewhere hindering us from achieving what we want to achieve. We tend to always push the blame away from us thinking that helps the matter. Here is what we always miss: sometimes we think what is going on is as a result of some external force(s) or war, but there is nothing like that. What we don't know is that sometimes, we are the ones waging war against ourselves and we seem to forget that no soldier can protect you from you!
In order to stop feeling like you are under a spell or being controlled by certain forces, you need to believe in yourself, have that confidence within you that you can top your class, that you can scale that utmost height people have always doubted you to, that you can accomplish more with or without them. William Jennings Bryan once said that 'the way to develop self-confidence is to do the thing you fear and get a record of successful experiences behind you'. So stand on your feet now, with your head held high and start breaking boundaries and protocols....
Always be yourself and have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and try to duplicate it. Believe that you can and you will!
Mindset speaks a lot in structuring out your plans. Having a myopic mindset about one's future or plans will definitely yield little or no result, but if you sit and think outside the box, not considering the challenges or problems you might encounter or being scared of facing challenges and problems then you're aiming for the stars. Fela Durotoye once said that 'Take the lead when you see the need. Leadership is the ability to create desirable outcomes out of undesirable situations. Leaders are people who see problems as opportunity to create value with the solutions that they carry inside'
So I'm imploring you this day to create desirable outcomes out of undesirable situations. Don't just think about where to set up that business, but think about where the business will be in the next 5 years. Free yourself off shallow thoughts and dig deeper in thoughts and understanding like a wise and focused man will do.
THINK BIG because he who must accomplish little, must sacrifice little, he who would achieve much, must sacrifice much, he who would attain highly must sacrifice breaking certain protocols and strategies, not illegally, but legally.
THINK BIG!!
