“We are hard-wired as human beings to stay the course towards the vision that consumes us.” – Matthew C. Horne (The Universe is Inviting You In)

Over the years, I’ve seen many people’s visions come and go, as they create goals with no intended end, leading to an aimless pursuit. As the New Year approaches, it is my intention to help you create a vision that surpasses your current standing, and to help you define the route to actualizing that vision.

It’s one thing to have a vision, and it’s another for your vision to have you. When a vision takes a hold of you, your entire being is consumed by it and nothing will stop you until your vision manifests.

Having a vision is just one key ingredient for success, but measures must always be taken in order to actualize that vision. It is within the scope of who you are to create your vision. This occurs when you take your creative resources that you’ve been endowed with; your faith, energy, and intention, and match it with the vision that’s inside of you.

Until you make your vision your intention, it will remain in the realm of want, as opposed to the realm of actualization. Although your Creator is the composer of events within your life, you still play an intricate role in creating those pictures that appear so vividly in your minds eye.

Never settle when it comes to your vision. Accept nothing but what rings true on the tablets of your heart. The universe responds to precedents. Every vision is accompanied by a level, and when your intention is to manifest on the level of your vision, you’ve established a precedent that must be honored, because this is the object of your intention.

Maybe you’ve heard it in more familiar terms, “According to your faith be it unto you.” The results in your life will never exceed the object of your intention. It is the inescapable essence of who you are as a creator, to create the object of your intention. We all emanate from the Creator, and possess His image and likeness. To view yourself in any other light is to veil the unchanging essence of whom you are.

To possess your Creator’s image and likeness, and not operate in it, is to nullify the reason for your existence. Your Creator would never endow you with His likeness if the purpose was not to operate in it and create just as He does, with an intended end that your intention will create.

In order to create like your Creator, you must first understand how He creates. This can be observed by understanding His thought processes behind us, His most precious creation. Every human being has an intended end and an eternal purpose. Our intended end was established before our physical beginning came to be.

To maximize the creative genius that’s inside of us, our vision, which we’ve been endowed with to carry out our eternal purpose, must be the parameters of the natural steps that we take towards our vision. Your goals should never create your vision; your vision should always create your goals.

As you create in this manner, you’ll create just as your Creator does, and suppress the fallible you, and awaken the eternal you, which is the perfect you.

This day, this week, this year, this lifetime, know that your success begins with a vision, and ends with the wherewithal to see the vision to completion.
