Writing a vision statement

So the theme that I keep on hearing over and over again lately is to write a vision statement.  Write down what your dreaming of as if you have already accomplished it and read it EVERY morning.  Not only does this help motivate you but it will change the way you think.  So all this negative crap that is going on in our heads about how we are not good enough or how we have failed before will slowly but surely leave our brain.  Our brain will believe what we are reading and start trying to make it a fact.
What does success look like to you?  Mine involves health, financial freedom, and the ability to be the homemaker, wife & Mom I know I can be.   I now know I am darn good at being a SAHM.  It only took that short leave from work to give me a fire for this that I haven't had before. I've had the desire and the wish to be at home with my boys but now that I experienced it, there is an urgency and burning desire. My why didn't change but it has never been so strong.

I sat down and started writing my vision statement and it is pretty empowering.  The person I want to become is SO strong, positive and full of self esteem.  The person I want to be doesn't talk down to me, like I do now.  The future me is a hard worker and enjoys it.  The future me looks back at the me I am today and realized it was all in me all along.  Talking about the things I want to be as if they've already happened took all worry out of the picture. The vision statement states it as fact, it has already happened, it is done and it was worth every second of the journey.

Change the story your telling your self in your head about why you can't and why you haven't. Write your vision statement as if it is all done and read it every morning. Remove the limits and let yourself dream.  Include emotions, sights, sounds make it feel as real as possible.  You want it to move you forward everyday.  Give you that umph you need to do what you need to do. To get on the treadmill, say no to the cake at work, or order your food with out butter.  "Change your thoughts and you will change your world"
