How can a vision increase your business? To answer this question we must define vision and the power behind it. It was August 28, 1963 when Martin Luther King Jr. gave his powerful “I have a dream speech” on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. It was there that the power of a vision and the possibility of dreams can be truly be seen. What is inspiring about Dr. Martin Luther is that he understood people must be able to see or have a VISION of something before it is ever possible for it to become a reality. He boldly spoke, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today.”
This speech is one of the greatest speeches in all of history because it painted a picture of what is possible. It allowed people to focus and to move toward what they could only dream of. As a result today we live in the time where that dream is now more of a reality than it ever was.
But, you ask, “How does that apply to my business?” The principles of visions and dreams will always remain steadfast no matter what domain they are applied to. What is important is that we have a VISION. We must see first what is possible before we will ever have the chance to obtain it. Tom Watson, Founder and Former Chair of IBM said, “I knew what IBM was going to look like before I ever created it.”
