In this book you will find helpful steps to enable you to write your own mission and vision statements and develop a plan to fulfill your mission. Every person is unique and has a call of God upon their life. Every person has a mission. LB Jones describes a mission as a clearly defined territory of responsibility assigned by a higher headquarters and is part of a higher plan. If you are not clear about your mission, you will find yourself ruled by the tyranny of the 'to do' list.
Effective leaders give priority to focusing on what is essential to their mission.
Your mission is not your job, but your job should be congruent with your personal mission. You may change jobs or roles, but your mission remains the same. If you are feeling uneasy or frustrated with your current work, perhaps it is not helping you to fulfill your mission. Once you are clear about your mission and vision, develop some goals monthly, quarterly, and yearly to help you fulfill your mission. A good mission statement will be inspiring, exciting, clear, concise, and engage others.
