Visions and Goals

#1- I would like to be a leader in multiple aspects of my life, both in my home and in my career.The type of leader I would like to be is a selfless one, and one that truly loves those she serves. To be a leader in my home my goals have to begin with being married and having children. But I can start now preparing by practicing patience, organization and trying to learn the leadership qualities my own mother possesses. I want to be a mother who is a leader of her home, most people view the father of the family as the leader, and there is much truth to that, but in my home nothing got done without my mother. In my career I would like to not only be successful but to love what I do. I would like to be a lawyer, so the achieve the vision on being a leader in that field, I have a lot of work ahead, such as graduating both undergraduate and grad school and passing the bar. Those are necessary steps to be a lawyer. Once those steps are completed my goal is to find a cause I am passionate about and be a leader for good, fighting for the cause. So many lawyers hate their jobs, that is because they are in it for the money not for the love of those they serve. I want to be a leader by loving what I do. That is the way to be both successful and happy.
#2-A good leader, like Brother Bond explained is one that helps other people achieve their goals. As a leader, you cannot help others achieve their goals without first knowing what their goals are. Knowing the people you lead is a crucial aspect to being a good leader. You cannot get them where they want to go without knowing where they want to get. After you know where they would like to end up it is your responsibility to help them get there. As a leader you are in a position where you can train and teach people. Teach them the skills necessary to progress and reach their goals. Do all that is in your power to facilitate the achieving of goals of those you lead.
#3-Having goals and a plan for how you are going to achieve them is a crucial aspect into getting anywhere in life. Whether you set goals for a day, a year or a lifetime you must set them and then make a plan. Then you must get going on your plan. You should have a general plan of how you are going to achieve your long term goals, and then break that plan into steps and complete things one step at a time. It is important to have a vision of what your future should be like, and then a plan on how you are going to get there. Even the largest task can be doable when broken up into smaller steps. All visions are achievable when worked at a little each day.
