Without a vision you are driftwood

As I promised, I am going to start, probably will be a series, on the role or ‘future’ on your behavior.

I’ll start with a personal example.

As you may know, I am old, fragile, living on borrowed time.

Back in November, meaning six months ago, my main computer was giving me grief, so I bought another one, but my main computer recovered, and I never installed the new computer. Yeah, I know, but I didn’t have the physical strength… or a good enough reason.

I have a vision for my work, but had no vision for the ‘company’… but that changed about a month ago.

Three things contributed to that:

1. I found a teacher who is a solo entrepreneur like me, off-kilter, like me, and curses like me… lol. I got revitalized. I started to see that I am not alone, even though I have never spoken to him, and he has no knowledge of me.

Following just a handful of his ideas, I grew my income enough that now I don’t scramble, and can save a chunk of that income for whatever I want to invest it in. Suddenly I had a future I could ‘finance’, if I wanted to.

2. I could see that I can expand my efforts and both live and work… and have my ‘borrowed time’ be more than must surviving: maybe I can live. LIVE.
