December is the time of year when most of you are thinking about everyone else in your life EXCEPT the most important person—YOU. If you’re not thinking about YOU and your Vision for your life, you may miss the opportunity to create the life you want!
Oprah has released a series of videos focused on Vision that confirms this.
When you take time to focus on your Vision, your dreams, and the life that will light you up...you’ll light up others’ lives as well. And if you wait until January to start focusing on your Vision, it will most likely get lost among those New Year’s resolutions that rarely go anywhere.
This weekend, I came across one of Oprah's new videos, and I was struck by her wisdom. But what surprised me the most was how much it had in common with my newest book, Start with Vision.
While we recognize Oprah as a global media mogul, philanthropist, producer, actress, and host of the highest-rated TV show of its kind in history, she was born into poverty in Mississippi. Yet she managed to achieve an extraordinary career and life beyond everyone's expectations. How did she do it? Oprah has said that she always had a clear Vision for the life she wanted to create and the impact she wanted to have on people. She kept that Vision foremost in her mind despite setbacks, challenges, and failures.
Oprah is quoted on the first page of Chapter 1 in my book as follows: When Oprah was asked this question: "You've talked to everyone in the world who is successful. What is the common characteristic that you find gets people to where they want to go?" Oprah answered: "People get where they want to go because they know where they want to go."
Learn more about why Oprah believes that Vision is the most required tool to success by listening to Oprah's new videos. And START to discover your VISION now. Most people need guidance to identify their own unique vision, which is why I share a process for vision discovery in Start with Vision. My clients and the people participating in all my leadership programs complete their own unique visions and set the goals to achieve it. Those who relentlessly pursue their Vision, and have the tools to overcome setbacks, are always successful.
My own vision is to create a world where gender equality is a given and no longer a goal. To reach my Vision, women need to have their own Vision as their primary focus. When they apply the 7 tenets of leadership they can overcome the challenges they face on the journey. With the help of Start with Vision, you can discover yours, too.
