Lead Or Be Lunch: The Power Of Earning Influenceনমুনা

In order to help rid yourself of apprehension and fear, there are a few things I recommend doing before leaping to action. The first is to create a vision plan. According to conventional wisdom, the first thing every visionary must do is first create a plan for their vision. That plan usually describes the size of the dream, the problems to be solved along the way, and a solution that the dream will provide. Having a vision plan is essentially a research exercise written in isolation at a desk before the visionary has even begun to build a product. The assumption is that it is possible to figure out most of the unknowns of a dream in advance, before you actually execute your vision.

Next, find a "dream incubator". This should be a confidant who listens and dreams with you. We all need a shoulder to lean on. Someone to support us through the challenging times and build us up when we need it the most. It's very possible that without the help of my dream incubators, I may not have achieved the amount of success I have experienced today.

Once you have your vision plan and your dream incubator, you should then get to work and execute your plan with diligence and persistence. When you find failure, don't let it keep you down for long. When unexpected road blocks present themselves in front of you, take a moment to rest, reset and revisit your dream blueprint. Refocus your energy on your "why". Why are you here? Why is this dream important? Why must you continue?

As the CEO of IPD, our internal theme at the company is "ALL IN". There are visions and goals, both personal and corporate which are in front of us, and to reach those summits we must not go about things haphazardly but rather, be invested fully by giving 100% of everything we've got. It is my belief that all of us possess God given talents and abilities that only we can use. I want to remind you again to look at what's in your hands. God has given gifts to each of us from his great variety of spiritual gifts so that God's generosity can flow through you (1 Peter 4:10).

Are you "ALL IN"? Are you truly giving 100% of everything you've got to make your dreams a reality?
