Dreams And Visions.
Many of us cannot differentiate between a vision and a plan; which is the reason why it is difficult for some people to actualize their dreams.
Dreams are relative to strong desires. You can wake up with the desire to build a duplex but of course you know that no dream makes sense until you wake up from it. Waking up is where you take a step. Like in movie production, the director goes, 'action’!
You are the director of your desires.
The thought of having a duplex doesn't get you one. You must have an insight and foresight as to what you want it to look like. That's vision, it comes after desire. An imagination of what the final destination or end result will look like.
It isn't enough to conceive a destination and not chart a course as to how you will arrive at it. Dreams without vision are just wishful thinking. Vision without plan is an absolute waste of idea. Can you build a house without a plan? There is either an available path that leads to your destination or you create one. The latter is better, yet, most of us refuse to do either.
I have a dream to become the greatest black motivational speaker in my lifetime. This means I have to inspire more than Martin Luther King, Muhammed Ali, Nelson Mandela and a host of others. Big dreams? Yeah. Dreams can be as big as you want.
Unlike dreams, vision needs to come with precision. What's my targeted audience? That's where my vision comes in.
My vision is to stand before the world on a stage, via the media and through my blog to motivate and inspire them while preaching love and peace, in the next ten years. How do I achieve this? I need a plan.
Plan is relative to mission in this context. How do I go about arriving at my destination? What path should I tread? Which should I dread? I planned. That's how I decided to write at least three paragraphs to motivate you every morning. If I can inspire you, you can inspire another. If you are inspired, you'll reach out. Every day I get at least ten messages thanking me for inspiring them. When I started I didn't get one.
As you journey through life, you become wiser, it gets easier if you have plans. If everything seems cloudy, chances are you have failed to plan. Dreaming won't get you where you desire.
Visions can be stagnant, but 'plan' is the action word. I no longer ask people what their dreams and visions are. I ask, "What are your plans for the future?"
Hey you, today is the future you talked about yesterday. What are your plans for today?
None? Stop reading and PLAN!
I hope this helps in your quest to become a better person (woman). The International Women's Day is on the 8th of March, 2018. All posts on this account from now on will lead up to that day 😁
Thanks @fisteganos you know, before now I used to interchange plan for vision but with what you just posted you opened my eyes to a lot much more than I can even imagine.thanks ones again
Thanks @ladiesman for this powerful post.
Vision without action equal frustration Mack zukerberg said once said
And so i believe when you said
Keep blessing this communitee with more of your motivational post...
Lol. who the heck is @ladiesman? Your autocorrect needs working on 😂😂😂
lol, I saw that o @ladiesman. Uncle fi is that true?
Vision is more 'bankable'. Plans is the fuel and the map that keep vision going.
It is like going on a trip and you didn't gauge the fuel and have no direction that will take you there...you probably will get stranded at some stage.
Thank you #ladiesman for these deep words. Resteemed it!
Wow thank you so much, highly esteemed steemian, you just woke me up now, thru this amaizing post. Vision is what i have always known, that works hand in hand with passion.... My pastor, ones said to me... He said some one nay still your idea, but i should never let the person still my passion. Because in the passion there can be another idea....
Good work @fisteganos, the dreams we have are products of our thoughts, whatever we constanly put our mind into becomes part of us, becomes an habit, and finally comes true, just because weve configured our mind for it.
The Fi has spoken.
Plans. Goals. Dreams. Visions. Missions
All are worthy terms supposed to be fully imbibed and inculcated into whatever we do on a daily basis.
KEEP MOVING!
Thanks for sharing bro!
Yes! you can be the greatest public speaker ever liveth!
If a house is a dream, the architectural design is the vision, the plan is the building block!
A plan helps you break down your vision into small, pragmatic, achieveable plans!
