Have you ever felt that you were trying to build your business from the tasks up to the strategy and then the vision, instead of the other way around?

I need a little time to step into the larger vision for my work. I know that what I am doing today is not likely to be the work I intend to do tomorrow.

The tension between doing what is in front of us because we are on a deadline, vs. advancing the larger picture, is one that many of us struggle with.
I don’t know what the key is to letting vision drive, but here are some thoughts:
· Shift from managing work to managing outcomes;
· Make sure your systems don’t reinforce the giant to-do list;
· How do your systems organize your outcomes instead?
· Be willing to let go of things in favor of focusing on a few;
· You can do anything, but you can’t do everything;
· Your daily habits add up and become a practice;
· A practice done regularly leads to outcomes;
· Be willing to make mistakes, go down the wrong path;
· Adjust on the fly, agility is key.

Now You: How do you hold your vision within your work?
