I just ran across a blog post, "Vision Statement Revisited", that I wrote in 2010 where I shared my Personal Vision Statement and the background behind writing it. It is now the fall of 2013, and although the Vision Statement is very simple, it still inspires me to continue doing work that fits my values. On a very hot September day, when I didn't feel like writing, I enjoyed remembering the cold winter day, reflecting on my past, and seeing how it led me to meet my goal of writing my first book, "Fire Up Your Profile for LifeWork Success". Here is an excerpt from that blog post.
It’s a cold overcast damp January morning. As I took a walk along the creek, I had time to reflect on my "Vision Statement." I created a Vision Statement" about five years ago, and at least once a year I go back and re-evaluate it to make sure it still fits with my current values and goals. My Personal Vision Statement To find a place That inspires my spiritual growth; Where I can develop my ideas; Speak the truth; See honestly; And feel valued. I was thinking that my "Vision" for honest self-expression might need to evolve and grow by now. As I thought about it, I couldn’t imagine what else to add. Then I realized this year I set a goal to put my self-expression and creativity into a well-formed book. It felt like a huge challenge. I realized that writing a book was the culmination of my vision for self-expression. I’m finding out how much work it really is! Looking back at my “Vision Statement” still gives me the motivation to put more time and energy into the work that I plan to do this year.
