Continuing our DEBcember celebration, this week’s #GoalChatLive conversation is on Vision with guests Erin M Baker, Bernie Borges, and Jess Dewell. Erin is a Self-Leadership and Business Coach, Bernie is Host of The Midlife Fulfilled Podcast; and Jess is Managing Partner, Operations + Strategy, at Red Direction.
To get what you want, you need to know what you want. It’s much more powerful when you can see it, write it, and feel it.
Erin, Bernie, and Jess talked about what vision is and why it’s important, what their visions are, how to find it, and more.
Vision is …
- Erin: Anything you want it to be. Vision is who you want to be or what do you want to do in the future … and the future can be any time after now
- Bernie: Eyesight. Vision is also where you see yourself next year and beyond. Bernie writes down his bision and reads it aloud at least twice a day
- Jess: Seen through your 3 brains: heart, mind, or gut-brain
Our Guests’ Visions
- Jess: To see every person who comes into her path and increase her capacity for compassion
- Bernie: To create a media entity around getting people educated and inspired around fulfillment
- Erin: More magic happens when they hold their vision loosely and approach life with curiosity. It’s all about chasing and feeling joy
#GoalChatLive on Vision
Goals
- Jess: Do a present retreat. Decide how you can be accountable to yourself. And create a practice.
- Bernie: Find the one thing where you have 100% fulfillment. Walking, cooking, sitting. Acknowledge it and be sure you are making time for it. Put it on the calendar.
- Erin: Fill your joy tank every day. Do one tiny act of connection, curiosity, creation, and courage every day
Final Thoughts
- Bernie: If you are 80% fulfilled, you are doing great
- Erin: If it’s not Joy-Full, don’t do it or find a way to make it so
- Jess: We may not be able to control our future, but we can’t take action on it!
