What's your vision for your business? Nope, not your mission, your vision, please. Your mission is what you do with the business - it's about putting your vision in action. Your vision is your inspiration. It's something that might not be attainable for you alone but is the heart of what you are doing. It inspires you enough to get you out of bed on a cold winter morning and want to get to work, excited about your challenges as an entrepreneur.
Let's say your product is to an audio program to help parents work at home with their children to improve their reading skills. Your entrepreneurial vision could be a mental picture of all children being able to enjoy the ability to read well. Obviously this is not something you are going to accomplish alone in the world. But it is the heart of what you do. It's your passion.
Uh oh, don't tell me you're still under the covers. Come on out in the sun where the inspirations can find you.
If you're not sure about your vision, then give yourself some quiet time to consider what makes you happy to think about. Letting go of any "shoulds" and "musts", what would you love to be part of achieving in the world?
Remind yourself everyday of your vision. You might even consider making a simple mantra out of it for yourself. How about having pictures around that remind you of that vision too? You know the best ways to remind yourself in a powerful way. You can also apply this process to your personal life too as you make changes by supporting yourself in transitions. It's about tapping that inspirational energy.
The consistency of your efforts will contribute to your business success. Reminding yourself of your vision will fuel that consistency.
So what's your vision?
