Creating Vision

Posted on October 21, 2010 by Monique Spence, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.

Do you really know what you want? How many times a day, week or year do you ask yourself the question, What do I want out of life and how am I going to get it? This past year I have found myself asking this question more than ever before. For the past three years I was working what I thought was my dream job in the Staffing industry. Well, God had other plans for me, on January 14, 2010 to my surprise our office was closed down and me and my coworkers found ourselves in the same situation as the many people who came into our office everyday, UNEMPLOYED! I had so many emotions those first few days after losing my job, fear, doubt hesistation, grief, uncertainty and definetly No Vision of what to do next! I finally decided I had 2 choices, I had to decide to either GIVE up or GET up and start creating my life the way I want it to be. It is not a easy road to follow your heart, but I have found the reward of living the life YOU create is well worth the journey. You must take the time to create the VISION of what you want everyday and allow yourself the freedom to THINK BIG! It all begins with answering the question, What do you want?

“What I know for sure is that no matter where you stand right now—on a hilltop, in a gutter, at a crossroads, in a rut— you need to give yourself the best you have to offer at this moment. This is it. Rather than depleting yourself with judgements about what you haven’t done, who you could have become, why you haven’t moved faster, or what you should have changed, redirect that energy towards the next big push— the one that takes you from good enough to better. The one that takes you from adequate to extraordinary. The one that helps you rise up from a low moment and helps you Reach for YOUR personal BEST!” — Oprah Winfre
