Business Vision Process
August 24th, 2009
When you have a simple business plan, you’ll step into your future. You may be discouraged right now. You may not know how you’re going to pay the bills. You may be thinking of closing the doors to your business. I know how you feel. I understand, since I’ve been there too. These thoughts are very real. The situations may be true.
The five-step process in your Personal Business Plan will show you how to shake off these negative feelings and move into your future. The five-step personal business plan process is:
1. Create Your Business Vision
2. Clarify Your Business Mission
3. Construct Business Success Factors
4. Compose Business Results
5. Compete Business Success Plans
How to Brainstorm Your Business Vision
Your ideal life becomes your real life when your business vision allows you to live how you want. Smell the lei around your neck as you walk off the airplane when take your family to Hawaii . Imagine the sand between your toes on your next beach vacation. Hear the sound of your grandchildren playing around you at your new beach house. Feel the excitement of earning your first million dollars. You’re no longer chasing success; you’ve attained it.

How to Align Your Vision With God
I have just been reading Galatians. Apostle Paul is very clear that his mandate, his vision, his passion was directly from God. It was a revelation. So don’t be discouraged by what others think of you. What does God have for you?

Make Your Vision Clear
Start writing down what you want to do:
· What business are you in?
· In what market? Be specific here.
· What is the name of your business?
· When do you want to do this business? Or change the direction of your business?
So buy a journal or grab something you already have around your office or house. Make it fun by writing “Success Journal” on the front of it. Grab your success journal, sit in a comfy place and complete the following exercise.
Create a journal entry that says “Business Vision”
Answer the following question
· What do you imagine your future to be on a personal basis?
· What do you imagine your business to be – answer the four questions above
· Don’t read any further until you’ve written 2–5 sentences on what your life will be like as a direct result of your business.
· If you need to doodle or draw a picture of your future, do so. If you need to walk around the block and let your thoughts float to the surface, do so.
