I've been really fascinated with mission and vision statements lately. Because I've seen their true power. They keep you going when things go wrong. They take your EGO out and make whatever you're doing about OTHERS instead of you. They become a north star that keeps you focused on important things. But they are SUPER hard to actually implement. Very few people take the time to make the statements at all. Some take the time, and then quickly forget about them. Some speak the words into the world and quickly forget them after a lack luster response. And I know why, because at first, mission and vision statements have little meaning. If you do share your mission and vision with others, don't expect a big applause. In fact, the opposite. They are nothing but WORDS. Of course they have ZERO impact on the world. Most people won't connect with a few simple words that don't really directly apply to them. It's too abstract. People connect with true movements and a sense of momentum. That only comes from real proof, people moving in a direction, and lives being changed by those words. So yes you should share your mission and vision, but don't expect anything much in terms of feedback until those words CHANGE LIVES. As the leader you'll need to move mountains and gain that momentum all by yourself. It doesn't have to be you forever, but someone needs to be that flame 🔥 (that fire starter). Keep your eye on that north star and PROVE to people that those WORDS mean something. Then people will care.
