Begin by listing the goals you believe will draw the vision closer to reality. Depending on its scope, each Vision will probably have no less than 6 goals, in order to see it realized. Think in small, manageable increments.
You’re far more likely to realize your plan with many bite-sized goals than you will with fewer all-inclusive goals. For example, if your goal is a completely reorganized closet, which plan are you more likely to accomplish – without stalling?
Plan A
1. Remove and sort current closet contents, arranging for disposal & pickup
2. Research and purchase closet organizer system
3. Choose paint color, purchase and paint closet
4. Replace closet contents
Plan B
1. Determine the purpose of your reorganized closet
2. Make several drawings of your desired end result and choose one
3. Develop a budget
4. Remove closet contents
5. Sort contents into 3 groups, TOSS, SAVE & GIVEAWAY
6. Package and arrange for pickup of giveaway items
7. Make a list of organizer resources using Yellow Pages and Internet
8. Request catalogs and begin to visit stores to price desired units
9. Etc.
As you work through the design process, be open to reprioritizing at every step. How might you rearrange Plan B to better suit your own way of operating? Stay with the process and employ an accountability partner to help keep you motivated, especially if the scope of your Vision is somewhat daunting with numerous goals that require entering new territory.
Bon voyage – the journey has begun!
