Udo Okonjo: 3 Reasons why Vision Rocks

Published

on

What drives you as a person? Are you feeling a sense of weariness? Are you beating the air trying to compete on a lane or land that you’ve not been called you? Are you playing by man made rules under the pressure to perform on a platform that’s likely to keep draining and framing you as a loser? Or are you propelled by a sense of inner purpose that creates a cocoon of personal peace and safety? Are you stepping out each day, taking action daily based on who you are called to be, light that shines brightly, salt that seasons, making a difference to everything you touch? Are you on message? Bringing joy, life, laughter, relief to a world in need of your sunshine? Or are you in a rat race?

Let the vision in your heart- that God given picture of you as divinity doing incredible things on earth, play out each day dear friend. Only then, will you feel settled, and enjoy that sense of blessedness that comes from being on purpose.

3 REASONS WHY VISION ROCKS?

  1. It keeps you smiling through tough times.

  2. It keeps you focused and on message.

  3. It helps you advance in the midst of adversity. Faint yet in pursuit.  Never give up once you carry an internal picture of an outcome irrespective of what’s going on around you. Vision is for an appointed time but also an every day propeller. Keep it moving.

In summary, you’ve gotta constantly be checking your vision like a hat on your head on a windy day. You need to check it stays on firmly and that it’s not blown away by adverse wind. A little adjustment here, and there to ensure it’s still there, a check in now and then, otherwise, you may go off track without realizing. You end up feeling uneasy, unfulfilled, unfortunate even, when all you need is a Vision check in and RE alignment.

This has been my experience. Vision is the only solution to a sense of hopelessness, stagnation, and unrest.

GO on a retreat if need be. Set time with God. Take a prayer journal. Cut off technology. A few hours alone without kids and spouses and well-meaning friends do magic for your well being.

Here’s to your success and a sense of significance.
