I was at the eye doctor recently and an interesting parallel about vision suddenly crossed my mind and I’m confident that it can be of some value to you today.
Those who have perfect eyesight are said to have 20/20 vision, meaning they can see things both near and far with relatively the same amount of clarity. And those who have less than 20/20 vision are encouraged to wear corrective lenses or have corrective surgery so that they too can see and experience the same. Hmmm…
Well, I invite you to consider the following. Knowing who we are and being crystal clear about our purpose for being here gives us a 20/20 vision type of clarity as it relates to life. And those who are unclear about these two things may be in need of a little corrective assistance.
To that end, I have found that simplification and clarification makes way for amplification. Yes that’s right friends, if you simplify your life and seek to become clear about who you are and your real and true purpose for being here, this makes room for your growth in all areas of life, spiritually, emotionally, physically and financially.
The old 1972 hit song by the legendary Johnny Nash says, “I can see clearly now the rain is gone…” But I submit to you that if we know who we are and our distinct purpose for being here, we should then be able to see clearly even in the heaviest of rains.
So how’s your vision today? Are you experiencing the comfort and clarity 20/20 vision can bring? Or, are you in need of some corrective lenses? Hmmm… No need to raise your hand, just hear and understand and make your plan and don’t forget to Make it GREAT!
