DYNAMICS OF VISION (2)
Have you read the first script in this series?
Differentiating between Dream and Vision.
Any vision without an action plan (the how) is a mere dream and may not see the light of the day. I met two men discussing, I discovered they were talking about the future. Mr. A' said "if it's possible, I will visit the capital city and see how beautiful it is, visit numerous tourist centres and enjoy myself ". Then, Mr. B' said "in two years, I would have visited the capital city. I will save a thousand naira weekly to cover my travel expenses. I will board XYZ Transport Company and visit Zuma Rock Resort".
One is a dream, one is a vision. Identify them. Dream is latent and without action plan. The dreamer sees it as unattainable due to some constraints (though he WISHES to attain it).
Dreams contain only the end but vision sees the PROCESS to the end.
Vision Is a Spirit
Vision is one of the most powerful spirits on earth. Everything that has the ability to instigate man's action is a spirit. The root of man's action is always a vision.
In naming the process of shaping man's personality, people omit the vital position of vision, hence proposing a model thus: Thought = Word = Action = Habit = Character = Personality.
For any THOUGHT to survive, and spur man to action, it must be a vision (remember our definition of vision) accompanied by a strong desire - emotion. So, let's have a model thus: Thought (idea, inspiration) = vision (how) = Word = Action = Habit = Character = Personality.
Do you remember the classical Joseph in the Holy Bible? Yes!
He had dreams. He only saw the end. He never got a glimpse of the PROCESS, the HOW. He only saw everyone bowing to him. He didn't see the route to that greatness. DREAM!!! Thanks to God he understood times and seasons!
If you want your greatness in an extraordinary way, you must see THROUGH (envision the process, procedure, principle and how) to that greatness.
