8 Questions to Create Your Life Vision

Yes, 2020 has been an unprecedented year, and sometimes I think if I hear “the new normal” or “pivot” one more time, my head might explode. Although, when someone says “pivot,” I do hear it in Ross Geller’s voice which makes me laugh. Every. Single. Time.

While 2020 has gifted us a lot of unwelcome shit to deal with, it also is giving us the opportunity to slow down and really reflect on our lives. Now is a great time to create a life vision if you don’t have one or reevaluate your vision.

Sooooo, what exactly is a life vision? It’s the big picture of who you want to be, how you want to live your days, and what you want to be known or remembered for. Once you have this big picture, you can then work backwards to create goals to get there. Check out my blog from last week for help with getting on track with your goals.

I am giving you two possible approaches for you to take to create your vision. One of these sets of questions will probably speak to you over the other, but feel free to try both!

Take a few deep cleansing breaths, and let’s get started! Close your eyes and envision your dream life.

Option 1 – write out your answers to the following questions

• Where are you?

• Who is around you?

• How do you want to feel on a daily basis?

• What does your day to day look like?

• How do you spend your time?

• What activities or experiences are important to you?

• What do you ultimately want to accomplish in life?

• What stories do you want to be able to tell?

Option 2 (for my gals that love lists!) – write down what you want from each category

• Mental and Physical Health

• Skills and Abilities

• Relationships

• Time

• Wealth

• Experiences

• Accomplishments

• Joy

Bring your new vision to life!

• Summarize your vision into one statement or sentence

• Create goals to align with your vision

• Create a vision board and place it somewhere you will see it every day
