Excerpt:
Expect it to happen.
Don’t hope that it will happen, or that you might get a lucky break, expect it to happen, prepare yourself for it happening, make plans for it happening, become aware of how much your life will change as a result of you completing your vision, There are thing we all know will happen in life, we can be absolutely certain about particular events occurring in the future, for example our birthday occurring at the same time each year, we know each day is made up of 24 hours. We know that the sky is blue and that grass is green, we know at some point tomorrow we will take a shower or bath, we know we also need to eat, to drink, and most importantly of all to breathe. There is no doubt in our mind that these things are true, that they will happen and do exist.
Now what about your vision? If you think about some of the above examples where at this moment in time does your vision fit in? You see, you need to be as sure about you completing your vision as you are about the same event happening at some pre-determined time in the future. That is how sure you have to be, no hoping, no possibility, no ‘it would be great if it did happen’. Absolute certainty is what is required, coupled with complete faith in your ability to make it happen.
You will create a vision for yourself that is so compelling that you will want it to be certain, you will want to make sure that it happens. Your vision will to be that strong! Once again don’t confuse a vision with a goal, your vision is much larger, it will be obtained by completing lots of goals, but it in itself it is much bigger than a goal. ‘Yes it will happen’, ‘I will make it happen’, these are words which you will want to get familiar with. Leave doubt alone, there is no place for it here.
Certainty is what you are after! Confidence, self belief, determination, motivation are all things you have, you needed them to get where you are today, and you will need them to achieve your vision, for creating a vision for your future is not to be taken lightly, but the rewards of you achieving your vision will be fantastic, you living the life you most dream of! That is what is at stake.
