Vision changes, especially when life circumstances change.

Do you have a vision for your life? If so, how’s it going? If not, why not?

Mark Batterson has some steps for remembering and casting vision–either for yourself or for an organization–that I found tremendously helpful:

1. Keep it simple. The best are concise.

2. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Say it as often as you can!

3. Find ways to illustrate your vision.

4. Celebrate it! Especially when it’s becoming reality.

As for me (Justin), here’s a few visions that have come to pass for me personally that I’m celebrating:

  • My wife and I just welcomed our first child, Finnegan into the world. That’s a vision that has become reality, so we celebrate!
  • BeDeviant.com has also had two of its highest months ever traffic-wise.
  • We’ve also welcomed four new sponsors to the site in the last month.
  • All great visions that we have cast that have come to pass!

What about you? What vision are you casting/repeating/illustrating/celebrating?

    Congrats on all the traffic on the site and your growing family! What advice do you have for a vision that isn't perhaps going the desired way?
