See your future before you build it. Real success begins with clarity on where you’re heading and the courage to invest time in vision—not just action. In this episode, Donna and Londina go deep on success habit number one: vision.

We all want healthy finances and growing businesses, but truly sustainable success starts with intentional thinking and emotional energy.

Without a vivid vision, entrepreneurs often get stuck in endless “doing” and miss the power of creativity, reflection, and strategic direction. This episode explains why vision is the defining success habit that shapes your business and your life.

What You Need to Know

• Vision is more than setting goals: it’s about traveling to your desired future in your mind, feeling the emotions, and letting that energy drive your daily actions.
• Creativity is fueled by intentional, positive thinking focused on the present and future—not the past.
• Regular thinking time is crucial. The highest-leverage business growth comes from strategic thought, not just operational tasks.
• Small practical habits—like daily reflection, celebration journaling, and vision boards—keep your goals top of mind and your progress visible.
• You have the power to choose your thoughts and direct your energy. This intentional choice is what moves you toward your vision.

What You Need to Do

• Schedule regular thinking sessions. Block off time on your calendar for strategic reflection every week or month. Show up for yourself.
• Develop a vision board. Use images to reinforce your goals, update it as you evolve, and keep it visible in your workspace.
• Practice daily reflection and gratitude. Celebrate small wins to stay positive and focused.
• Use journaling and mind mapping to clarify where you’re going and the next steps to get there.
• Connect with other entrepreneurs. Leverage the IBGR app and join the “Building Success Habits” group for ongoing support, inspiration, and coaching.
