Thanks to everyone who liked my business page. But it's time to retire this unused puppy and get one more FB friend off your list. When I figure out how to close it I will. In the meantime, feel free to unfriend me here since I don't use it.

Creating a Personal Vision – A Recipe for Reinvention

(First in a series of three articles on this topic)

Have you ever had the opportunity to reinvent yourself? You changed jobs or got married or moved to a new city. Maybe you joined the military or got out of the military. Perhaps you’re an empty nester or just graduated from college. Whatever the circumstance, there was an opportunity to put yourself in a “new place.” Creating a personal vision statement is one of the first steps you can take on your personal road to reinvention.

According to Robert Steven Kaplan in his book, What to Ask the Person in the Mirror, a vision is “a clear articulation of what you would like your enterprise to be if you succeed.” I would add that you are the enterprise when developing your personal vision. Vision statements are all about your personal values and what’s important to you, at that time and place. They differ from simple goals in this way. They should be dynamic and reviewed periodically, but that’s a later article. Right now, I want to talk about creating your first one.

The first step in vision development is to focus on your core values. This can be a very hard task to accomplish. It requires introspection, defining common values related words and quiet time. Then refine your list to only three or four values. Consider previous successes and identify what values helped you in that endeavor. If you’re stuck on this, ask friends, family or co-workers to identify what they see as your values. You may be surprised!
