Who tries to put together a puzzle without seeing a picture of the finished product? Who shoots an arrow without knowing exactly where they want it to hit? Your goals are likely more important to you than puzzles and archery. So why trust them to luck or a fuzzy idea of what success is? If you can clearly state and see what your vision is, you’re well on your way to seeing it come to life. From the beginning, world leaders with a strong, clear vision have been able to energize people with the possibility of greatness. In the same way, a vision can motivate you and keep you fired up. Instead of stumbling around, hoping to reach your goals, you’ll know success when you see it, and know what needs to be done to get there. The clearer your vision, the more targeted your plan will be. What do you see?

My mother once did a 1000 piece puzzle with no picture whatsoever! We didn't know unti she was near done what it was and then at the end it was missing its last piece! Lol it was quite exciting. But I get the meaning of ths quote and I thoroughly agree! :-D

We also cloud ourselves and then the negative thoughts bring about the unwanted outcome
This is why we have schools for our children, and why adults always want to learn. We have an inherit need to be prepared, wanting to live forever or at least not to be forgotten when we leave.
We sometimes stumble around because we allow ourselves to become distracted from our vision, from our goal, ---by all sorts of life factors, when we need to make the effort to stay focused on the goal that will ultimately give us the greatest sense of achievement.... All kinds of circumstances can cloud the vision; yet true diligence will bring rewards!
I love the inspirational picture and with my own Daily Positive Inspirations I can learn from the way you describe the picture and add to the meaning by the description. This makes the visualization so much more effective - Just a positive inspiration with an explanation like you have can help us stay positive though out the day. As a therapist, I always ask my clients, "what is your goal?" By having a goal and a vision in mind, your actions will be much more directed and rational. Thanks for the inspiration both personally and professionally!
I couldn't agree more. I also think this holds true for our weight loss journeys. Prepare you exercise routine and your food journal in advance, stick to it and reap the benefits. Donna
