Why is having a clear vision essential for creating wealth and achieving results?
Answer #
If I just plan out an action plan, but don’t have a clear vision and experience that vision on an emotional level, or said another way, I don’t have a clear vision I am committed to; my thinking is often not given by my commitments.
My thoughts are often influenced by how I feel at a particular moment, not by a commitment to a vision I live into every day.
Thus my actions are more prone to my feelings, and results are always from actions, not intentions or wishes.
I always have a bigger future I am living into.
When one vision is achieved, I create another.
Nothing in our universe, from the subatomic level to the entirety of it, is ever still.
Life is either expanding and becoming more, or contracting and dying so more expansion can take its place.
I have learned that results (wealth if that is what I am creating) follow my visions, before they follow actions.
Over time, I have also seen more wealth is usually created during tough times than boom markets.
Both brands I sold were created during the 08-10 Great Recession.
Most people sit on the sidelines waiting for times to get better.
Assets can usually be purchased for less, and if one has a clear enough vision, the right people and circumstances usually show up in unpredicted and unexpected ways.
During boom times and expansions in the economy, I grew at a slower rate.
That was my experience.
Most people wait for certainty.
