Develop a vibrant vision for your future. Having a powerful vision helps you put the rest of your life into perspective and can make any challenges or setbacks seem manageable. A useful way to clarify your vision is to create a destiny map, a visual representation of what you would like in your life. Once you have created the destiny map, put it somewhere you will see it regularly as a reminder of how you would like your life to be.
