The First Step to Success: Clarifying Your Vision and Planning

How intentional are you about the way you are living your life? If you aren’t clear about your vision and planning, then it’s easy to get distracted by mundane things in the everyday experience… these demands sweep you toward a pathway of passivity and subpar results.

The harsh truth is that if you don’t shape your future deliberately, then you are at risk of ending up in an average or default future. The seemingly small decisions you are making each day are driving you closer to or further from the things that you truly desire.

Which Path Are You On? Intentional Planning or Default Living

Many people are moving through life without a clear direction. This default way of living might seem comfortable in the moment, but have you considered the opportunities that you are missing out on? Look at your current routines and habits: are they leading you to greatness or resulting in mediocrity and missed potential?

Instead of letting life slip by, it’s time to supercharge your results through a more intentional approach. You can build your life – including career and personal aspirations – in a way that inspires you and makes you excited about the possibilities in the future. If you are intentional about the way that you are living each day with consistent and deliberate actions, then it is inevitable that you will move towards extraordinary outcomes.

It All Starts with Your Vision

The most important thing that you can do is clarify your vision for the future. Having a strong vision is the anchor that will keep you motivated to keep moving in the right direction, especially on days when you are starting to slip back into the default way of living. When you have a clear vision, then it sets a foundation of alignment and momentum so that you can achieve the things that you desire.

• Vision turns ideas into reality
• Vision programs your internal GPS to move toward a compelling destination
• Vision ensures that your priorities are clear so that your actions are in alignment with your goals
• Vision is the north star that keeps you focused and making progress
• Vision makes daily decisions easier because you can quickly determine if each item is in alignment with your purpose

At Effective Action Consulting, we are excited to start a new Effective Action MasterMind in January. This 12-month experience begins with the first session that helps you clarify your vision – also known as a created future. Then, we build a road map: a series of milestones and actions so that your future becomes reality. These planning phases are critical, helping you break down the process into bite-sized pieces so that it is achievable.
