Whatever causes you to drop your plan forward and open to your vision, your own, deeply personal vision of what your life could be at its very best, that's what I call meeting your rhinoceros.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The idea that you have a vision of what you're supposed to be, or going to be, or where your kids are going to be - and that that doesn't work out - is always going to be something that's going to affect people and move people.
If you can tune into your purpose and really align with it, setting goals so that your vision is an expression of that purpose, then life flows much more easily.
But if the vision is strong enough, and your goals are steady, and you believe, pretty soon you bring other people with you.
Sticking with your vision and what you believe in is so, so important.
For me it's all about personal vision; is there something about a subject that uniquely speaks to me.
I define myself from a vision, from a point of view of life.
When you have vision it affects your attitude. Your attitude is optimistic rather than pessimistic.
When a plan or strategy fails, people are tempted to assume it was the wrong vision. Plans and strategies can always be changed and improved. But vision doesn't change. Visions are simply refined with time.
Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don't change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same, and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.
I try to avoid long-range plans and visions - that way I can more easily deal with anything new that comes up.
