Creating A Family Vision for 2022

Happy New Year everyone! 2022 is a new chance for new beginnings. And as we start the year,  let's be more aligned, and live a meaningful conscious life with our children. 

I believe that for dreams to come true, we should speak our dreams out loud. And it’s important to show that to our children, that they may believe in themselves, and making their dreams come to life is possible.

In this episode, I would like to share how to create a family vision for 2022. Questions that you and your loved one can discuss to plan for a meaningful family life. A new year call for new beginnings, a fresh start. And let us make this year count by bringing in our best selves starting with creating a new vision for your family.

What Do I Want For My Family?

Reflect on the past year. Think about unmet goals and where you’ve been dissatisfied. You have to dig deeper to know what your goals are for this year based on what has not been accomplished last year. 

Ask yourself about what you want to achieve for your family, for your kids. Make it realistic and focus on the one to three goals you really want to aim for. 

What Is The Core Problem From Getting What You Really Want?

According to Don Miller, the author of Building A Story Brand. You can break your thoughts down to external, internal, and philosophical problems. When thinking of your goals, ask yourself what are the external problems that hinder you from achieving your goals. Is it the lack of resources? Is it the people? Or it could also be because of internal problems like mindset, doubts, or fear. And lastly, philosophical problems can also affect how you achieve goals. These are the different beliefs we have. Once you identify the core of the problem, it’s easier to break down what your goals are.

What’s The Solution? What Can Guide Me Or Who Can Guide Me?

Do you know anybody who has achieved the same goals you want? What are the values that can guide you? These are questions that can help you find a solution. You can look up podcasts, books, courses, or mentors that can guide you towards achieving your own goals. Brainstorm and write these solutions down and find what you think works for you. 

What’s The Next Step?

After you’ve identified the solution that works for you, write down the steps you need to take to achieve your goals. It’s all about the small steps, your commitment, and the bigger goal. Having  a definite plan can lead to a better chance of you reaching your destination, your goals.

And write down what happens if you fail, write down the reminders. This will motivate you to stay true and committed. Remember, failure is nothing but feedback forward.

What Does Success Look Like?

What's your measure of success? Because everybody has their own measure of success and looks different for everyone. For some it’s money, freedom, or recognition. It could also be their impact in the world or the inspiration that they're being.

Write down your plan and remind yourself. Create your family’s vision and work towards making that vision a reality. Failure can happen but don’t let that failure be the end of it. Keep working on your dreams, especially because this is not just for you, it’s for your family, it’s for your kids. 

This 2022, be the best version of yourself, be the best parent to your children. Have fun, work on your vision, and enjoy the journey!
