Setting Our Sights on the Rest of the Year

Now that we've had two months (admittedly February was a short one) to launch. monitor, and evaluate our plans - possibly even reinvent ourselves a little - we should have a pretty good idea of where we want to go for the balance of the year. If not, there is still time to make some very important planning decisions.

The main thing is to use our vision (no not our physical eyes but our mental vision).

Our overall, long range vision comes before anything else if we want to be successful.

From our vision, we formulate our mission and translate that into objectives, goals, and tasks. It's moving from the macro to the micro, and that's the way it works the best.

Liken it to driving on the highway and keeping your car perfectly centered in the lane. If you look ahead at the horizon (or as far away as you can reasonably see), your car will drive along centered with little effort. However, if you drive by watching the road immediately in front of you, you'll' be making many minor corrections and veering left and right along your path.
