I like the idea that a vision is not a place to get TO, but a place to come FROM.

In this short clip of a coaching conversation I had with Jude, she tells me how she wants to be doing more public talks. Certainly one could explore all the different strategies to creating such an outcome. What I typically find though is that ‘strategy’ and ‘how to’ are typically NOT the thing people are missing. What people are missing is a willingness to simply DO THE THING in their vision right now. With Jude, that meant that if she wanted to be doing more public talks, the thing to do was TALK…right now.

What to talk about?

Speak about speaking.

This seems obvious, but most people spend their time trying to do everything BUT the thing in their vision in order to get to their vision. To come FROM a vision, fill your days with that vision – fill every day with that vision.

If you want to be a speaker, then speak every day. Speak about speaking. Do it enough and you will end up on stages speaking to more and more people.

If you want to be a massage therapist, massage people.

If you want to be a coach, coach people.

If you want to run a business, then figure out what the thing you want to do in that business is and start doing it…right now.

Watch me create this insight with Jude here:

 

And then ask yourself: If my vision were a place I came FROM, what would I be doing?
