How to determine the vision and mission of your business

To get started, let's get clear on the vision you have for your business. An entrepreneurs vision is the start of a roadmap that will determine where you want to be in the future. This is why it's important, because having a clear vision or your why gives you the motivation to push through challenging times, while also helping you build a stronger relationship with your audience. I'll start by sharing part of my vision. I want to create content and experiences that help people overcome setbacks, embrace opportunities, and perform at their highest level. I'll do this by writing articles, creating courses, speaking on stages, and providing coaching. And I enjoy doing this because I know what it's like to feel defeated. Like there was something else I was meant to be, but I just didn't know what it was or how to make it happen. My work allows me to share these experiences in a meaningful way that helps others. My vision also aligns with my personal life. I have a wife, four children, and I like to exercise. My job is aligned with this because it gives me the freedom to work from anywhere, in the flexibility to adjust as things come up unexpectedly. Knowing this, I can easily turn down opportunities that are not aligned with my vision while also attracting more opportunities in partnerships that are. So, now let's talk about how to develop your vision. Here are a few questions to get you started. What do you want to be doing two years from now, and why is that important to you? How will you help people and what will be the impact? How will people describe you to others? What experiences will go along with that? Will you speak on stages? Be featured in the media? Will you travel more? Jot down the answer to those questions now. And one way to make it even more meaningful is to answer them while also describing your perfect day. What will it look like from the time you get out of bed to the time you go to sleep? That's the vision you're building towards, and the rest of this course will help you make it happen.
