Personal Vision/ Mission Statement Much like a business, we, as human beings have a purpose or mission in life. What if we spent as much time getting to know who we are and what we want for ourselves, as we do working at our job? A personal vision/mission statement is the framework for creating a powerful life. Unlike a goal, a vision or mission rarely changes. It is a reason for our existence. It guides us in the decisions we make and the directions we take. Outline a personal vision/mission statement for your life. Your Personal Mission Statement should answer three conceptual questions: 1. What is my life about? (Purpose) 2 What do I stand for? (Values) 3. What do I do to manifest my Purpose and my Values? (Action)
