Becoming A Successful Entrepreneur Requires Great Vision Statements
Punching a time card, working for someone else, being a victim to the "winds of change" is not what you want to do anymore. You want to be the master of your life and your destiny. You have the dream in your heart and in your head to become financially independent. Good for you!
Successful entrepreneurs take inventory of themselves. You will seek the answers to the same questions they ask. What is my "why"? What do I believe in? What are the values I will not compromise? What am I good at? What do I truly dislike doing? What are my strengths/weaknesses? This is a step not to be rushed through. This information will guide you to the type of business in which you will be most successful. These answers will help direct your course of action.
Your brain cannot differentiate reality from vision. Your brain only understands and processes what you put into it. The principle of autosuggestion is defined in Napoleon Hill's book, "Think and Grow Rich", Chapter IV. Mr. Hill states, "The dominating thoughts of your mind will eventually reproduce themselves in outward, physical action and gradually transform themselves into physical reality." This is why vision statements are critical to your success.
Your vision statement will change and evolve over time but you want to start with a good vision statement. Like the other steps, you do not want to rush through writing your statement. Your first vision statement should be written for five years in the future. Describe, in detail, your relationships, lifestyle, wealth, health, charities and philanthropic activities, the person you have become. Write in the present tense - I love...I am ... I give to..., I make..., etc. Your statement should be very specific. An example is "I am chairman of the committee to Make Detroit Beautiful." You will read your vision statement twice a day - once in the morning when you first wake up and at night before you go to bed. It is to be read aloud. This will be strange to you at first but you will get used to it. Emotionalize your statement. "All thought which have been emotionalized (given feeling) and mixed with faith, begin immediately to translate themselves into their physical equivalent or counterpart." (Napoleon Hill) Close your eyes. See you future, feel it, smell it, taste it, hold it. It is through this principle of autosuggestion that your vision will work it's way into reality. Spend 20-30 minutes a day meditating on your vision.
