What is “Vision”, and why is it important?

Have you heard of the word “Vision 2020”?

This has been the millennial thing for everyone in the 2000s!

Why do most educational institutions/corporate companies have their vision statement?

Let’s start with the definition of vision; it’s not just the mere ability to see things but the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom. It is synchronous with the creativity of a human being.

In simple words, you have two paths while doing any work. In the first path, you can put your energy and efforts into a task given by your manager, knowing the vision of the work and the organisation, whereas, in the second path, you do the job allotted to you.

Path-I gives you the ability to make decisions for life. You will enjoy performing the task if you are aligned with the vision and vice-versa. In path II, your life will be monotonous and aimless, just performing the tasks allotted. This neither gives joy nor sorrow. A person with well-steered emotions in path-I, who can make decisions for self and others, becomes a visionary!

Be a visionary of your life and lead your life with all success, beauty and happiness.
