This episode is all about vision—how to identify and present it. When it comes to articulating a clear vision, it’s all about the what, where, and why. I explain why daydreaming is a key component of establishing your vision, quote a little Mark Twain, and point out the power of imagination sessions. 

Stumped on your vision? Articulate what you don’t want. This helps you crystalize your goals. Dealing with naysayers? Find out how to turn the biggest skeptic on your team into your greatest asset!

Fieldwork for the week: Give yourself a reasonable goal in the near future. Imagine all the possibilities and desires for that event. Then apply the prospective hindsight (or pre-mortem) technique by identifying all the risks and addressing them.
