Vision for the future

Create good reasons to look forward. You, your community, and your world all thrive on such reasons.

What’s already happened has happened, and there’s nothing you can do to change that. The future, however, is wide open, and largely determined by what you decide to make of it.

That decision comes from your vision, informed by all you treasure and all you seek to do with it. It revolves around the specific life experiences you wish to create, share, and encourage.

To develop and expand such a vision is not easy. And it’s likely you can get by, at least for a while, without it.

Yet to honor and fulfill the unique and precious value that is your life, vision is a solid necessity. Though you can survive for a while without a vision for the future, you are capable of so much more than mere existence and survival.

Look forward, see the reality of what’s possible, and focus on the most beneficial and enriching outcomes. That gives you power to successfully deal with what is, and to favorably shape what can be.

— Ralph Marston
