A Mission Statement Created For Our Lives Can Keep Us On Track
Do you have a mission for your life?
Crafting a mission statement will allow you to live more purposefully.
The creation of a mission statement requires that you define your strengths, interests, and values. Once these are known and documented, life becomes much easier and more fulfilling.
You simply have to ask yourself, “Am I living in accordance to my mission statement?
Your goals will become more obvious and you’ll feel more certain and clear regarding your decisions.
Use These Ideas To develop A Mission Statement And Take Control Of Your Life:
1. Who are your heroes? Think about those you respect and admire. Consider people you know personally, people you know of, and people from history. What do they have in common? What traits or experiences do these people have that you’d like to see in yourself?
• Your true-self is closely aligned with those you hold in high regard.
2. Define the person you want to be. Life isn’t only about accomplishments and accumulating a list of impressive possessions. Life is also about the person you become and your contributions. Consider all the roles you might fill over your lifetime and define your ideal person for each of these roles:
• Student
• Spouse
• Grandparent
• Parent
• Employee
• Employer
• Boss
• Friend
3. Imagine you’re 80-years old and only have a month left to live. Look back on your life. What would you like to look back on? What do you want to be able to remember? Making a million dollars? Climbing Mount Everest? Starting a charity? Having happy, successful children?
• Start with the end in mind. Then you can create a path to reach that destination.
Creating your path is a lot easier to do when you have a clear mind. Luckily, creating a clear mind can be as simple as participating in some meditation sessions. Click below to get some awesome meditations as a free gift.
