How to Set Goals and Vision?

December 20, 2022 · In: Lifestyle

Have you set your personal goals and vision for 2023? When people ask “what are your goals” or “what’s your vision for your life?” does it make you want to retreat to a different conversation at the cocktail party?  Thankfully there’s a way to figure out your personal vision, so that you can make daily decisions that move you closer and closer to your highest hopes and personal mission.  And best of all, it will move you closer to your values and ultimately your personal joy.

When you have goals and a vision for a project, your job, or your life, then every action and decision can support it.  It also helps you prioritize because you can ask yourself “does this decision move me towards or away from my goals and vision?”

Then, once you have the goals and vision, your unconscious mind will go to work for you.  It will sift and sort the inputs from your world, looking for evidence to support and move you towards your vision.  You will literally “see” the world differently, because you’ve fine tuned your filters.

Why does this work?

In every moment we receive over 40 billion pieces of information, but our conscious mind can only process about 40 of those items.  Like tuning the channel on your TV set, you can change which 40 things make it to your conscious reality.

The trick is, left alone, our mind cannot always arrive at the goals and vision by itself, because societal conditioning teaches us not to get too big for our britches.  We have an inner governor that throttles our creativity.

The way to get past the governor is the magic of asking questions.  We are going to play a game with ourselves to uncover our personal truth, then tune the filter to match.  So set aside a half hour, grab a notebook and pen, and give this gift to yourself.

If money, talent, time and responsibilities were not in the way, and you could create your ABSOLUTE dream scenario, what would your life look like in the following areas?  Provide as much detail as possible for best results.  

Start at the top of the page, and write until you feel empty about each prompt below.  Describe in great detail to get the best view of what matters to you.

I live in…
My family is…
The first thing I do each morning is…
My car is…
My home is…
The project I’m excited that I just completed is…
My health is…
The person I’m connected with is…
My favorite thing to do on the weekend is…
I’m traveling to…
I’m finally able to…
The best part of my (job, career, business) is…
When I look in the mirror, I see…
I no longer stress about…
I would describe my relationships as…
Spiritually, I am fulfilled by…
Something I’ve always wanted to do is…
The way I feel after doing it is…

Ideally this will fill several pages, where you’ll uncover what matters most.  Now is the fun part!

Write yourself a letter in present tense, about how you feel now that all these things have happened.  Talk about each of these items, from the point of view that it already happened, easily and effortlessly, and how you feel now that it’s all happened. What DOES it feel like to be aligned and in flow with your vision and goals?

Keep it near your daily meditation space, your desk, wherever you will make time to regularly read it.  Our unconscious mind is unaware of time, and will think this is already true.  The unconscious mind will use this insight to ferry the 40 items a second that support this vision.

I do this exercise once a year, and for both me and my clients, we’ve found over time that more and more of the vision comes true, and other parts morph as we grow.  Most of all, by regularly reviewing your vision, you can think about the actions and decisions you make as either moving you TOWARDS or AWAY from your ideal.

Sometimes I do choose the treat that takes me away from my visions of health, not gonna lie.   And I forgive myself and enjoy the treat guilt free.  Other days I’ll make a different decision, and on all days I’m making an informed decision. I talk about the joys of eating keto but some days I go ahead and enjoy as part of being a survivor. I have a second shot at life, and joy (and spreading joy) is my highest priority.

I’d love to hear in the comments below, what was your greatest learning from doing this visioning exercise?  Any surprises?

So honored to train our company’s top leaders on So honored to train our company’s top leaders on the topic of “Joy in the Journey” - last week at our training center in West Palm Beach!

We all seek joy.  When we seek an affirmation in soc, when we hope for a promotion, when we urge our partner and family for peace, we are actually seeking joy in the journey.

After surviving late stage cancer, long term corporate life, raising teens during the zombie apocalypse, and lifelong prejudice, I want to see everyone doing that which brings them joy.

Joy comes from reducing any gap between what you value and what you do.  Helping people get those things straight is why I launched my coaching practice.

My joy is being a way shower for others.  I love adding light to the planet, one moment and one soul at a time.

What brings you joy?  What will you choose to do today?  LMK, I love hearing your stories! 🙏

And if you were there last week, shout it out 💕🙌🏽

Dragon or reverse seahorse? Or a third option? W Dragon or reverse seahorse?  Or a third option?  What do you see in these clouds? 👀

It’s like life, everyone can look at the same situation and see it differently.  You are right.  They are right.  Ecologically everyone has a right to their own truth. 🥰

When communicating, our path is to be as curious as possible about what other see. After all, we already know what we see.

By asking questions, we participate in a co-creative process that will likely lead to a better outcome than anything we might have started with.

By leaving space for others to get to keep their truth, we focus our efforts on a solution. 

We don’t have to convince others that we’re right and they’re wrong. We just need to know what we are trying to accomplish, and focus our energy on that.

So what do you see?

Thoughts please! This plant based sausage and egg Thoughts please!  This plant based sausage and egg scramble came together in minutes, and the avocado and chopped herb mix takes it over the top!  I was full for hours. 🙌🏽

Sometimes I think “why bother being a content creator” because certainly there are plenty of food channels out there.  Why me?  What do I have to offer? 🤷🏽‍♀️

👉👉👉 I do like to eat.

What you’d get is a wide range of yummy stuff, healthy-ish and quick ⏰

I asked a few friends, and what came back is they like how I create things out of what’s around, it’s usually quick, healthy and tasty.  And that the tips I’ve shown them through the years have upped their cooking game. 👍

They also said that when they follow my recipes at 🌸 withpurejoy 🌸 it doesn’t always taste the same.  That when we make it together they then point out hidden tricks I didn’t capture in the written recipe. 

⁉️ So whattdya think?  Is there room for a channel with videos about why I cook like I do, why certain steps matter, why certain tools really work, what new foods I’m seeing in the market and all that?  Cuz I wanna!

🙏 I of COURSE would want you with me.  To engage and ask questions, make requests, and cheer me on.  Because I’m just not sure about this.  What if I’m talking into the void?

✅ LMK all the thoughts.  Yay or nay.  If yay what do you hope for, what do you want to know more about?
