This past weekend I went to the Empower Network<\/a> event in Austin Texas. We live in Kansas. I didn\u2019t really want to fly\u2026 the idea of navigating an airport by myself completely freaks me out. I decided instead to rent a car and just drive on down.<\/p>\n

When my husband found out about this he decided we should all just drive down together and he\u2019d drop me in Austin and then go visit his sister and her family near Houston.<\/p>\n

Well, I thought that was great! Shared driving. He asked me to get a map. I forgot. I printed out directions from Google maps. I mean, step by step instructions must be as good, if not better than a map right?!<\/p>\n

Well\u2026 turns out, not so much.<\/p>\n

We made it safely to Austin. I was driving. The instructions weren\u2019t clear about how to get to the hotel. We missed exits. We got lost. There was some yelling.<\/p>\n

And then my husband said\u2026 \u201cYou see. This is why you need a map. You can\u2019t see the big picture without a map.\u201d.<\/p>\n

Damn\u2026 he\u2019s so smart.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t really hit me until later in the weekend when we were talking about vision during the event.<\/p>\n

You see\u2026 you can have step by step instructions on how to do what you need to do, but if you don\u2019t have a map, otherwise known as a VISION, you can\u2019t see the big picture, where you\u2019re really going.<\/p>\n

Yes, instructions are great, but when you get off track, or you get lost, without a vision you have no way to know which way is \u201cback on track\u201d.<\/p>\n

So, I guess there was a reason why I didn\u2019t get the map\u2026 this was a lesson I\u2019d been resisting. Now it is clear\u2026 and my vision continues to get bigger and more and more crystal clear every day.<\/p>\n

I want that for you too\u2026 so today we\u2019re going to talk about how to create your vision, and how to breathe it to life. Get a pen and some paper\u2026 you\u2019re going to want to take notes. You can also ask questions and share your thoughts in the comments section. We\u2019ll be keeping an eye on them. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
