This is the first of many articles,blogs and postings we will be making to help you as a business owner or entrepreneur achieve growth in a straight forward and common sense manner without a lot of technical jargon and business terms.
We hope you enjoy and benefit from them and we look forward to being of service in your endeavors to achieve business success.
Creating A Vision Statement
"Vision is the art of seeing things invisible."-- Jonathan Swift
This is a simple exercise we use in the workshop to help you identify and create your vision statement. But you may be asking what exactly is a vision statement and why do I even care about creating one?
A vision statement can be considerd an affirmation of the best possible outcome for your business. It should be grand,it should be all encompassing to what you are ultimately trying to achieve with your business.
Example: ABC Solutions vision statement is "To help promote financial independence and a more stable economy by developing small businesses "
Why do you care about creating one? Because with a clear vision, you can sync your goals and business activities to stay in harmony with acheiving it. With a clear vision (and vision statement) anything and everything is possible. Here are a few practical tips on how you can get started creating yours today
a) Think about an end goal - The end goal I want to accomplish with my business is:___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
b) Think of how your business will help you meet that end goal - My business will help me meet this goal by doing the following:______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
c) Think of how this goal relates to helping other people reach their goals or contribute to their happiness or success – This goal will help others reach their goals or contribute to their success or happiness by doing the following:______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________d) Put it into a phrase, sentence or paragraph that resonates with you (you will know that it resonates with you because you will feel a sensation when you say it) – My vision statement is:
_________________________________________________________________
Once you do this, we would really love it if you would share what you came up with by posting a response.
Wishing you the best of success..

James P Reardon Sr. | | Anthony Jones,
Great post. This is an excellent start for anyone in finding out their goals. It's usually not until it's down on paper until we understand what it is that we want and what we will need to get there, which aspects of our lives will be obstacles to our goals and which will be beneficial and building from that.
Meeting short term goals that all add up to meeting your ultimate goal is always a good idea and small priorities. Because when we take small steps one step at a time it don't seem so bad as when the ultimate goal can seem overwhelming at first glance.
Layout your plan, eliminate the obstacles, meet your small priorities, take one step at a time. - After all Rome wasn't built in a day -
Once again great post Anthony,
Jim
