And welcome back for another deep dive.    Co-Host: Glad to be here    Main Host: today. We’re getting into something. I think we all struggle with a bit.    Co-Host: Oh, yeah. Definitely.    Main Host: Making those big goals a reality.    Co-Host: Turning vision into action, right?    Main Host: Yeah. And we found this great Forbes article called, How do you align your vision with action?   So, I think this will be a good one to really dig into and see what we can learn.    Co-Host: Absolutely. Yeah. I think there’s some really good stuff in here. And for example, like right off the bat, it talks about visualization. Yeah. You know, it’s really picturing yourself.     Main Host: So not just like vision board.    Not just vision board.   Co-Host: Yeah. It’s about going deeper than that. It’s about engaging all your senses. You know, what does success feel like? What does it smell like? What does it even taste like?    Main Host: You know, the more vividly you can imagine it, the more real it becomes in your mind. And that can be so motivating.    Co-Host: Yeah, I can see how that would make it feel more attainable, you know, like something you could actually reach for.   Main Host: Exactly. But daydreaming isn’t enough.    Co-Host: No, definitely not. The article really emphasizes that action is crucial for turning vision into reality. In fact, it uses this example of like tripling sales in six months.     Main Host: Okay. So a pretty ambitious goal.    Co-Host: Yeah. You’re not going to do that by just like, you know, sitting on your couch. Hoping for the best.    Main Host: Yeah. Exactly. So it’s about taking action.    Co-Host: Okay. So what kind of action?     Main Host: It digs deeper and says it’s not just about any action. It’s about action that’s aligned with your core values.    Co-Host: Okay. So now we’re getting to the heart of it.    Main Host: Yes.  Because I think so many of us, you know, we feel pulled in so many directions and we’re trying to achieve all these things.   Co-Host: Yeah.    Main Host: That might not even really be that important to us.    Co-Host: That’s exactly it. And then the article talks about how important it is to know yourself before you even dive into plans and goals.    Main Host: Okay.    Co-Host: It’s about identifying your non-negotiables, those values that are fundamental to you.    Main Host: So before we even start setting these goals, we need to figure out what matters.   Co-Host: What matters to you?    Main Host: Is it spending time with family? Is it, you know, pursuing some creative passion?    Co-Host: Exactly.    Main Host: Is it, you know, having a positive impact on my community?    Co-Host: Maybe it’s about prioritizing your own well-being. And yeah,  like, making sure you have time for exercise or meditation or just relaxing and recharging.   Main Host: Okay.    Co-Host: Whatever it is for you. That’s the first step.    Main Host: So it’s like laying the foundation before you start building the house.    Co-Host: Exactly.    Main Host: But then how do we actually connect those values to our vision?    Co-Host: Well that’s where this key question comes in from the article. It says, does the vision I’m creating align with my values?   Why am I starting this business? What do I hope to achieve?    Main Host: Hmm. Yeah. Yeah.    Co-Host: So it’s about holding your vision up against your values and seeing if there’s a genuine match.    Main Host: So it’s like a gut check.    Co-Host: Yeah.    Main Host: Like, if your vision’s pulling you in one direction and your values are pulling you in another, that’s a sign that something needs to shift.   Co-Host: Exactly. And, you know, I think this is a good point for a listener to maybe pause for a second. Just reflect, like, what are your core values? What matters most
