Write a Personal Mission Statement

I am in the process of discovering my personal mission statement. It is a time for introspection, self-discovery, a look at what Stephen R. Covey calls the "deep personal life" that drives and influences our public and private lives.

It's tough. I believe it will be worth it when I am finished. I also believe it will help our family develop our family mission statement as well.

We all need direction in our lives. Why not set the course and destination for yourself? A mission statement is a tool for defining the principles by which you will live your life. It's not something you develop...it must be something you discover.

Oh, and if you think just because you have an idea in your head, you already have a plan, you're just dreaming. Do the hard work of facing yourself and working to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. And write it down.
