As a leader, you want to move the mission forward and do what God has put on your heart to do. So why is dreaming important and why do you need a vision? What would it look like for you as a leader and person to dream and cast a vision for the future?
In this episode of our Goal Setting series, Holly and I outline the importance of dreaming: why you need to dream and how to dream PLUS we talk about creating a vision for the future: what is a vision, why you need one, and how to cast it.
Why should you dream?
- Dreaming lifts your mind and heart out of the clouds of daily living and pulls you higher into what could be.
- It gives you a freedom to be something else. To be free of the chains of sin that still bind you.
Why do you need a vision?
- Vision brings clarity
- Vision shows people where you are going
- Vision helps you to stay focused on the end result. If you are someone who gets stuck
Key Quotes from episode:
