PERSONAL VISION CHARTS
Visual imagery can help you harness the power of written goal setting to boost you toward the life you imagine.
My clients have told me over and over that the Strategic Vision Charts created for their teams were instrumental in achieving their goals. Keeping the vision front and center in an engaging way helps everyone focus, remain on task and stay inspired.
I’ve developed a simple, templated process to help you create your own Personal Vision Chart. You answer questions that I provide, have an hour discussion with me, and then I draw your Personal Vision Chart, based upon your goals and desired imagery. Print it, post it, and let your imagination be engaged and inspired to take action toward the life you really want!

Meanwhile, to learn more about the power of written goal setting, check out this amazing study:
In the book What They Don’t Teach You in the Harvard Business School, Mark McCormack tells of a study conducted on students in the 1979 Harvard MBA program. In that year, the students were asked, “Have you set clear, written goals for your future and made plans to accomplish them?” Only three percent of the graduates had written goals and plans; 13 percent had goals, but they were not in writing; and a whopping 84 percent had no specific goals at all.
Ten years later, the members of the class were interviewed again, and the findings, while somewhat predictable, were nonetheless astonishing. The 13 percent of the class who had goals were earning, on average, twice as much as the 84 percent who had no goals at all. And what about the three percent who had clear, written goals? They were earning, on average, ten times as much as the other 97 percent put together.
