In your entire life, and particularly in your adult years, dreams and desires have come and gone. One year you think wow this is great, the next year something else is the best. Why not turn your dream into an achievable vision?
First, what's the difference - between a dream and a vision?
For me it's simple: a dream is something you want but you don't believe you can get. A vision is something you want, and you know you can get. I know I can get anything, so the things I think of to achieve are my visions not my dreams.
How do you find your vision? Well first you must have faith. Did you read my earlier article about faith? Then there is no limit. You choose your vision. To help you start, ask yourself, "what you would do if you knew you could not fail (or what you would do with a million dollars)?"
Here is my answer:
If I knew I could not fail (and I know that I will not fail), I would create a company with multiple income streams. I would build a plan that gains specialized knowledge from established experts that have already succeeded. I would learn first, the methods of marketing that make my company grow.
This includes internet, direct mail, radio, television, newspapers, and magazines (and of course word of mouth). I would study and implement a proven system for my most basic income stream. Then duplicate and improve it for each subsequent income stream (or niche).
I would gain specialized knowledge in each niche I want to market. To know you are really achieving the maximum results from your niche, you must have specialized knowledge about the particular market. I would choose a mentor for each.
I would simultaneously build a piece of web real estate for my first niche, and begin marketing to build my database using the techniques of my proven marketing expert mentor.
When my profits in the niche exceed $10,000 per month, I hire assistance to work selected parts of my marketing system that will gain the greatest return for the company. When I top $20,000 per month, my new niche is put into place. (I was able to plan the new niche, because I hired an assistant).
As the income streams develop, I also implement my personal plan. I start working with my church to help fund their redevelopment so their assistance program for the mentally less fortune can flourish. I pay cash for my new condo on the upper floor of the building. I pay cash for the hybrid vehicle of choice, and I begin traveling country wide to network marketing seminars to build incredible joint venture relationships.
As my income exceeds $100,000 per month, I have a group of employees I leverage time and efficiency with. I now have income pouring in automatically. I am traveling the world freely as I used to before everything was lost. My time is devoted to creating new businesses.
My success company is also in full gear. I get such great pleasure from teaching others the way to a brilliant future.
Do you get the point? Now this is not fiction. This is what I am doing and achieving. I did loose everything. Everything completely gone. But I have faith, confidence, and that allows me to have a vision. I invest in myself to build futures for others. I am a success.
