  • Business Question

    Create your own personal Mission. And Vision. Identify why

    This Mission and Vision fit who you are. (Individual). Your

    mission is your reason for being. Who are you, and what are

    your expectations? Your vision is where do you see yourself

    in the future? What would you like your end result to be and

    how do you plan to get there? Stephen Covey, author of The

    Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, is a very good source

    of information on this topic. One of the seven habits was how

    to create your own personal mission statement. When you write

    your mission and vision statement, make sure you write your

    mission statement first because you cannot effectively know

    where you will be going until you have a better understanding

    of who you are and what you want to do. (Individual)
