Vision of My Life
 Vision clarifies our life purposes. We all asked ourselves, at one time or another, that why we are here. And where do we see ourselves in life? In fact, we all are here with specific purposes, i.e., our vision. Then, what exactly is the vision? The dictionary defines vision as an act or power of anticipating which will come to be. In other words, vision gives directions of our lives to let our goals and purposes become a reality. So, in order to understand where we want ourselves to be in life, we must have a clear vision over our lives. Once we understand that vision clarifies purposes, life will become simpler and more meaningful. Actually, the vision of my life decides who I am now.
First of all, vision chooses our friends and the company we keep. People are attracted and spend time with others who have the same vision, and are disciplined in their vision. That is, we normally make friends with people who know where they are headed in life. The great thing is that vision not only benefits and helps us, but also makes room for others to learn and grow in their purposes as well.
Secondly, vision decides how we spend our time. In reality, how we spend our time is all connected to our vision. If our vision is important to us, the time we spend pursuing it will reflect it. In order to reach our goals and purposes, the time we spend will determine our actions to achieve our vision. If time wasted today, we cannot get back tomorrow because tomorrow is not guaranteed. Money, people, and opportunities can always come again later in life, but once the time is gone, it is gone forever. Therefore, if we have clear vision, we are sure that we won’t waste our time. On the contrary, we certainly make the most of our time to take action.
Thirdly, vision creates our habits. Not only does vision decide our friends, how we spend our time, but also it creates our habits. Vision does a lot of things for us to realize what we want. For example, in order to strengthen my professional knowledge, I do take time to read books for 30 minutes every day. Day after day, I, finally, realize that it surely becomes my good habit to read books before I go to bed. Habits are the things that, most of the time, we do every day without thinking about it. It’s important to know that the way we spend our time, energy and resources can contribute us one step closer than we were yesterday. The truth is that our vision and purposes of life can help us create our good habits.
At last, finding and realizing our purposes of life is not easy. But once we comprehend our purposes and write down the vision, our lives could become simple and less complex. Society has made us believe that the busier we are, the more successful and important we are. As soon as we understand our purposes and vision, we know why we are here, busy and what we want. I can see my vision to be an English teacher, a classical, ballet dancer, a pianist and a yoga practitioner. I am very happy to make friends with English teachers and ballet dancers. I spend most of my time to practice English, to dance and play the piano, and even to form good habits of rehearsing them every day. My vision really lets me know what I want and the purposes of my life. With vision of my life, I, indeed, feel pleased and enjoy myself very much.
