Vision is always a future-oriented program. It is an image that what you want to create. It is not about an individual’s image, it is about what they want to become. Vision should be greater than goal and to have a vision, one has to visualize and imagine a lot of things.

Establishing a personal vision begins by asking yourself some simple, but profound question:

• Every year how would I spend my 365 days?
• If I could have it any way I wanted it, what would my life look like?
• What kind of engineering or dentistry or any work would I being doing?
• What efforts it would take to relieve my stresses and make my life fulfilled?
• What would my economic freedom plan require?

Once you have answers for these questions, you’ll have a clear vision.

Goal is what one is determined to do so whatever he wants to achieve in his life. They are dreams with deadlines. One should clearly know if they can hit that or not. There should be a correct planning and management to reach their goals.

They are not dependent on each other, but they do have a relation to reach some where what one has planned. For a vision to be meaningful and motivating it should come by looking deep into the ideal future and according to that perspective you can set goals. When we need to set a goal, a person has to leave their past and think about the reality. However, in order to create an effective vision, one has to free himself with the current reality and think in terms of possibilities.
