Revisit your vision

Last night I was encouraged to revisit my vision, to keep it before me so I can chase after it. It’s hard to chase after something that was once in front of you, but now in a notebook on a shelf fading away due to time…   It all started with at church where Pastor Eric Clark encouraged us with one of the main scriptures was coming from Habakkuk 2:3: “For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.”   He also added two things: You are closer now than when you started  Remember why you started    As I had a little mini hansei session, I reflected on this in my thinking chair, I am thankful for coming this far. But I had to look at the vision, and see what is on track, and what is extra I just added that looked good. I’ve added new tools to my arsenal to get me to where I want to go, so I wanted you to do the same for yours.    Applying this kaizen approach to our vision: Remember that our vision can suffer death from 1,000 cuts. It can slowly but surely be snuffed out if we unintentionally pay no attention to it.  Hansei is the looking over the vision and trying to see how we can get there in a way we can handle. This is keeping it before us so we do not lose sight of it. Motivation and momentum is the force that keeps us moving forward and how fast we’ll get there.  The Seven Mudas helps us to streamline the process by eliminating time wasters that delay and deter us from being the best we can be.
