Dare
to start anything in life: school, career, relationship or marriage without
having a clear picture or understanding about it? Then, you are in for doom.
Vision is the ability to see possibilities before executing. It is the
invisible plan of action of an individual, programmed to be made visible in the
course of time. It precedes great achievement. This is because success is not
achieved without a vision. Without vision the youths perish in the sea of
complacency, ambiguity and ambivalence. Why, because vision is the lens that
interprets the event of our life. Let me explain! If you have scratches on your
eye lens, it may seem everybody around you has scratches too. In the same way,
if your vision of life is impaired, your life direction will totally be void;
without defined shape-Just like an amoeba.
Many
youths today are waxing in the shadow of themselves because they couldn’t see
their real self. Pause and think! What
have you seen about yourself? Seriously, what do you see? Imagine walking on a dark
pathway without a light. No doubt, you may stumble over stones and hills, get
severely injured or even lose your life and never reach your destination.
Vision gives a clear meaning and understanding of your purpose in life. It
gives light and direction to your destiny. Without vision it is very possible
that a young person will walk and work aimlessly, live carelessly and die shamefully.
You know why? Vision defines the picture of your future. If you can see it, you
can have it. If you have not seen it, don’t act it.
Vision
is a mission in action to achieve. One
without a vision is like a scalar quantity, which has no direction. You
can’t enter a public transport system without knowing where to alight, that
will really be embarrassing. When you don’t even know the right bus- stop to alight,
the right thing to do is to ask question and get answer which will eventually
guide you. To have vision is to have foresight, with insight base on hindsight.
It is beginning a thing with the end in mind.
Vision says; “I am
an adventurer seeking for treasure”. What a youth needs
is the right vision not capital.
Without qualification or formal education,
he started with one hundred and fifty dollar ($150). He was much determined to
cloth the naked after seeing mammoth crowd without good clothings and
foot-wears. Though born in Elimina in 1952) the second of nine children, he
moved to New York City at age twenty-seven with the vision to become a
full-time fashion designer. Nothing could stop him because, he saw the vision. Failure,
pains, money and enemies bow, because he was a vision carrier. He became the
world most renowned fashion-designer. Today, the world celebrates his victory.
You and I wear products from his vision; boxers, chinos, singlet, undies,
stylish bags and foot-wears with his label name, Tommy Hilfiger. This is a
concise story of the man, Thomas James Hilfiger popularly known by his label
name Tommy Hilfiger.
There are millions of people with sound
records of excellence who translate their vision into useful products like the
sachet water we drink, the pen we use, the computer system, microphone,
speakers, tooth-brush and paste, cream, down to the simple tooth-pick you use,
after eating certain food. These are all products from young men and women like
you. Do I need to remind you that any man without a vision is a man without a
future and that no man ever saw glory without seeing the vision?. One thing is certain; every vision that is
not backed up by quality decision will only end in delusion. What did you see?
IT'S IN YOUR MIND! BE YOUTHFUL,FRUITFUL AND USEFUL!!
