This document discusses the importance of beginning with the end in mind when setting goals and direction in life. It emphasizes creating a clear mental vision or "personal mission statement" that is aligned with one's principles and values. This first creation then guides the physical creation or execution of goals and plans. The document also discusses identifying one's core or "center" to ensure goals and direction are based on correct principles rather than external factors. Finally, it discusses how developing a personal mission statement can provide internal guidance and a standard to measure oneself against in life.

3. All Things are Created Twice
 1st is the MENTAL Creation, 2nd is the Physical
Creation.
 One must be sure that the 1st creation is perfect and
aligned to the Goals
 We need to understand the principle of both creations
and accept responsibility for both

4. Design or Default
• If we don’t develop our own self awareness and
responsibility for our own creations, we empower other
people and circumstances and shape our lives by default
• We reactively live according to scripts handed to us by
other people and situations

5. • Based on Principles of Personal Leadership
• Management is doing the things right, leadership is
doing the right things
• Proactive leadership monitors the environmental
changes and organises resources accordingly

of control, efficiency and purpose in a leadership role

Developing Personal Mission Statement

8. At the Center
To write a personal mission statement we must begin at the
very center of Influence
Here we can examine whether our direction, paradigms are
based on the correct principles and are accurately within
the territory.
4 FACTORS : Security, Guidance, Power, Wisdom are
independent
Security and clear guidance bring true wisdom becomes the
spark or catalyst to release and direct power

Identifying your Center

11. A Principle Center
Deep, Fundamental truths, classic truths etc
Correct principles
Principles don’t change, our understanding of them does.
These are the things which really are, have been, and will be.
Results- knowledge, proactive individual etc
Correct way of seeing and analyzing things results correct principle

12. Writing and using a personal mission
statement
You could call a personal mission statement a personal constitution: it is changeless
Internal monitor.
Everyone’s task is unique
It should define your values and goals and become a standard to measure yourself against
To begin, define what is at the center of your Circle of your Influence
We create our life.
The computer metaphor. Clear about what we want to be and what to do in life
Self introspection . Say I have a mission and I am excited about it.

13. Using your whole brain
• Imagination and conscience-Primary functions
of the right side of the brain
• Understanding how to tap into the right brain
capacity greatly increases our first-creation
ability.
• Brain Dominance Theory
• Left/Right Hemisphere of the brain
• “Comfort Zone”
• Different Perceptions
• Do we live in a left or right brain dominant
world?
• The 10 percent of the brain myth is a widely
perpetuated urban legend that most or all
humans only use 10 percent (or some other
small percentage) of their brains. It has been
misattributed to many people, including Albert
Einstein.

14. Two ways to tap the right brain
Expand your mind
Visualize in rich detail
Involve emotions and feeling as possible
Involve as many of the senses as you can.
“Assume you only have this one semester to live”
Effect with parents and siblings
Underlying principle is Love
Less time means they will think more
Live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to
live forever said by?

15. Identifying roles and Goals
We each have a number of different roles in our lives different areas or capacities in
which we have responsibility.
I may, for example, have a role as an individual, a husband, a father, a teacher, a church
member, and a businessman. And each of these role is important.
My mission is to live with integrity and to make a difference in the lives of others.
To fulfill this mission: I have charity: I seek out and love the one each one regardless of
his situation.
I sacrifice: I devote my time, talents, and resources to my mission.
I inspire: I teach by example that we are all children of a loving Heavenly Father and
that every Goliath can be overcome.
I am impactful: What I do makes a difference in the lives of others.

16. Family Mission Statements
Many families are managed on the basis of crises, moods, quick fixes, and instant
gratification not on sound principles.
Symptoms surface whenever stress and pressure mount: people become cynical,
critical, or silent or they start yelling and overreacting.
Children who observe these kinds of behavior grow up thinking the only way to solve
problems is flight or fight.
The core of any family is what is changeless, what is always going to be there-shared
vision and values. By writing a family mission statement, you give expression to
its true foundation.

17. Organisational Mission Statements
Mission statements are also vital to successful organizations.
One of the most important thrusts of my work with organizations is to assist
them in developing effective mission statements.
An organizational mission statement one that truly reflects the deep shared vision and
values of everyone within that organization creates a great unity and tremendous
commitment.
It creates in people's hearts and minds a frame of reference, a set of criteria or
guidelines, by which they will govern themselves. They don't need someone
else directing, controlling, criticizing, or taking cheap shots. They have bought into
the changeless core of what the organization is about
