Are You A Visionary?
Updated: Jan 14, 2019
Vision
What do you want? Where do you want your business, investments, life, and goals to take you? What do you truly want to achieve in life?
Setting goals without a vision for your life is pointless! Your vision is the difference between attracting money and chasing money.
A common question I often hear is “what is real estate and business going to give me?” Sadly this is a sign that the individual wants someone else to design their life for them….which will only lead to long term struggle.
The true answer to this question must never come from someone else, it MUST come from YOU!
The first step in being successful is to clearly understand that the motivation to invest in yourself education, real estate, and/or business is not all about money. Yes, this may seem quite contrarian, but the truth is if you focus solely on chasing money you will do so for the rest of your life.
However, if you focus on creating a crystal clear vision of exactly what you want out of life entrepreneurship, real estate investing, and your business (and the money it brings you) – You will be moving closer to achieving your dreams at rapid speed on a daily, monthly and annual basis.
The real reason most people never achieve their goals is because they do not know what they want.
Here is what most people say… • “I want to make $1,000,000” • “I want to make enough money to quit my job • “I want to start my own business” • “I want to own 10 properties” • Less than 1% knows exactly what they want and how they are going to get it.
What is it that you truly want? Have you ever taken the time to clearly describe in FULL detail exactly what you want?
A truly compelling vision is the foundation to your success. With a truly compelling vision in mind you will be able to choose a clear path way; without it you will burn energy, waste time, and go nowhere.
Your vision should be so compelling that it is the first thing you think of when you wake up in the morning and the last thing before you go to bed at night. It will keep you going when you are faced with challenges; it will keep you going even when others around you question what you are doing. It will guide you towards victory and the life you deserve.
It has been said that most people fail in life not because they set their goals to high and miss but tragically because they set them to low and hit their goal. Be truthful here, are you letting fear uncertainty and doubt hold you back from being the best you can be?
Are you setting “realistic” small goals because someone else told you your dreams were impossible?
If you could create your perfect world, what would it look like?
If money was not an issue what would you do?
Take some time now to reflect on your life. See it where it is now…but not worst then it is now. Now see it better then it is. It’s time to create your compelling vision.
This exercise will help to answer your question “what is entrepreneurship and business going to give me?”
Life will give you whatever you ask of it. In an effort to help you create your vision here are some questions to ask yourself. Answer them as if it was 5 years in the future, and everything has come together for you:
• Where do you live? Describe the house, the town, the landscape, the colors, the smell, the sounds you hear, and how it makes you FEEL.
• With whom do you spend most of your time? What is their state of mind? How much free time do you have?
• What businesses are you involved in? What real estate investments do you own?
• What hobbies do you have? How does this make you feel?
• Do you travel? Describe you vacations in full detail.
• How is your health? What is your weight? How often do you exercise? What do you eat?
• What type of music do you listen to? Do you play an instrument?
• What experiences are you having? What are you learning that’s new? Who is your coach, teacher, and mentor?
• Who are you helping and how? Where are you making a difference?
• What is your net worth? How many residual revenue streams do you have? How much money do you make monthly?
Use these guideline questions to create a compelling vision that is so strong that every day when you read it you become motivated. REMEMBER the way you do anything is the way you will do everything so devote some serious time, effort and energy to this so you can begin the process of making your dream a reality.
