If you&#8217;ve attended any of\nmy webinars or heard me speak in person, you know that I look at the path to\nachieving our goals like a road trip. We have to be clear on where we&#8217;re going\nso that we can set a route to get us there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you know where you&#8217;re headed and clear on <em>why<\/em> it&#8217;s important that you get there,\nthen you&#8217;re less susceptible to distractions. Sure, and idea might sound cool\nand exciting, but is it going to get you closer to your vision, or be a\ndistraction from it? If the reason you started on the path to the vision no\nlonger makes sense or doesn&#8217;t serve you, then there&#8217;s nothing wrong with\nheading in a different direction. If the vision is still important to you, then\nquitting or getting pulled off track is not an option and you remain focused on\nwhat you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think it&#8217;s worth mentioning that clarity on your vision\nisn&#8217;t enough. You have to be willing to do what it takes to make that vision a\nreality. That may mean becoming more disciplined with how you spend your time,\nyour money or both. It may mean spending time with different people, expanding\nyour circle and at one point or another your comfort zone as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journey to making your vision a reality isn&#8217;t going to\nbe without it&#8217;s bumps in the road. We have to be prepared for them and have a\nplan in place for what you&#8217;re going to do when they show up. This includes\nhaving a strong support system that you can go to when you need some help\nworking though the difficult times. Never forget that you don&#8217;t have to do it\nall on your own! Be willing and able to ask for help when you need it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a long time where my vision was very short-sighted\nand limited. I didn&#8217;t want to dream big or think outside the box because I was\nworried about setting myself up for disappointment or making a fool of myself.\nI wasn&#8217;t pulled to really thing about how I wanted to live my life until after\nmy dad died. Once I started thinking bigger and doing things that I truly want to\ndo regardless of how crazy it might have once seemed, amazing things have\nhappened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vision that I have for my life continues to evolve and\nchange. I feel like the image of that vision is getting into sharper focus.\nPast experiences and lessons learned have helped me to realize what I want more\nof and what I can do without. There have been many surprises along the way,\nthings I never imagined I would want and am now grateful that I have in my\nlife. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My advice for anyone who is looking to gain more clarity on\ntheir own vision? Dream big, keep an open mind and stay focused on the\n&#8220;what&#8221; not the &#8220;how&#8221;. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In most of the talks I give on goals and creating the life you truly want, I discuss the importance of clarity.
