How to Have a Clarity of Vision





“Today, I have given you the choice, between life and death, between blessings and curses”

Deuteronomy 30:19

Here’s what I did so I can have a clearer vision of what I want to happen in my life.

First, I bought a notebook in National Bookstore, then I wrote “MY DREAMS” in the cover page.

Second, I wrote in detail all the things that I want to happen in my life.

Here’s my dreamboard as of the moment, but of course will be subject to change as I discover God’s purpose for my life.



- I wanna be a work from home mom, so I can earn and spend time with my kids at the same time
- I want to have a real estate business, so my parents can have a source of income when I get married (I’m the breadwinner as of the moment)
- I want to have a family that is close to God.
- I want to have a “dream team”, team wherein we help each other to achieve each other’s goals.
- I want to grow old happy with my future husband.

Start with your dreamboard today. It’s fun to see them everyday!


Third, I review them everyday. Reading my dreams everyday moves me towards achieving them, It inspires me to do the best that I can. It has made me focused on the result, and not on the hardships of achieving my dreams.

Fourth, I pray for my dreams. Most people maybe asking “Doesn’t God know what we really want? Why do we have to pray for our dreams?

Of course, God knows our needs and wants. We have to pray because it reminds us of what do we want to happen in our lives. It moves us. It gives us hope. It inspires us.

Fifth, I begin to develop habits of successful people. I do extraordinary things in my job. I take additional responsibility even if I’m not paid for that role. I extend working hours to make sure I won’t be missing anything. I’m not yet a manager, but I work like a manager. I take responsibility like a manager. I smile to people like a manager. I take initiative like a manager. Why? Because the skills and habits that I’m developing is far more important than the salary I receive from the company. I have a vision of having a business someday. I know that the leadership skills and habits I’m learning in my company today will have a use when I already have a business of my own.

My challenge to everybody is to give the best that you can, regardless of your profession. If you are a school janitor, clean the school as if the school is yours. Smile to teachers and students like a school owner. Take responsibility like a school owner. We will never know, one day, you will become a school owner. If you are a saleslady, act as if you are the store manager. Act professional like a manager. Have a discipline like a manager. We will never know, you will become a manager soon.

Hope you learned something from me today.
