TAKEAWAY:

Clearly defining my direction puts me on a path I choose and gives me both purpose and true ability to enjoy the journey. 

Life gives you what you ask for, so be sure to ask for the things which are MOST important to you. A clear vision allows you to find joy and purpose during tough times and prevents you from blaming others for your own situation. " If you don't prioritize your life, someone else will" - Greg Mckeown. 

It's crucial to get your OWN vision down on paper. Tips for getting that done include:

 1. Set aside dedicated time in a quiet space. 

2. Start by clarifying the categories of your life that are MOST important to you. Then get specific about how each area looks in your "dream life" 

3. Begin with the End in Mind, then work backward (ie retiring at 60, I need to make how much per year until then to maintain the life I want)

4. WRITE IT DOWN! This is so important and allows your brain to more fully commit to your vision. Plus, it's easy to reference often.
