Createyourself a Vision
“The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight but no vision.” —Helen Keller
If you don’t know Helen Keller, at 19 months she was stricken with fever and rendered deaf and blind. So, for her to make the statement about sight and vision is huge. She ultimately became a world-renowned writer and lecturer envisioning a world without barriers to all human potential.
Visit the website of any renowned company. You will always find a Vision Statement identifying where the company wants to be or what it would like to achieve or accomplish. A vision statement is not only necessary for companies but also for humans. Vision gives us a direction for our life. Having a vision and purpose is important because it tells us why we are in this world.
God has created every soul with a purpose. He has bestowed us with the ability of thinking and analyzing. With the help of these abilities, we can identify our purpose and vision for life. The dilemma of our society today is parents decide what their kids are going to pursue in their life in too many families. This actually creates chaos in our kids’ lives, not a steady path.
Vision is not something that others can impose on us. It is the power that motivates us to achieve something in life. We often confuse our goals with vision and spend our entire life in darkness. A boy named William wants to be a doctor. He studies day and night for his purpose through high school and college. The question is, why did he want to be a doctor?
When he has the answer to this why his vision can be clear if he doesn't his work as a doctor is no different from the woman placing the same part on a vehicle assembly line over and over and who has no purpose (albeit the doctor gets paid more for his monotonous work). Does he become a doctor because he wants to discover a cure for cancer after losing one of his dearest family members or just to make the money and have a doctor's reputation in the community?
A majority of people don’t know what their vision is in life. One of the main reasons people don’t have a vision is that we don’t let our kids use their cognitive abilities to decide their own vision. Discovering a vision is not very difficult.
The following are a few of the questions which help us in finding our motivation for life.

The answers to these questions vary from person to person, but they give us a grander and clearer picture of our life.
When you wake up in the morning, do you feel passionate about going to your workplace? Or do you feel lethargic? If you have to gather a lot of energy just to get up and convince yourself to go to work, you may be wasting your life. This is your wake-up call to realize that you are not doing what you are meant to do. There’s something deeper you must unearth as to why you seem to be adrift, something deep in your subconscious.
That’s what this book and podcast is for…to help you dig deeper and find out.
