SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTION What do you feel
most passionate about?
11
Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they
are the children of your soul, the blueprints of
your ultimate achievements. Napoleon Hill
12
The Target of Life is a very helpful way to
understand our individual and collective
well-being.
13

• When youre centered in the heart of the Target
  of Life, youre at your best and life seems
  brighter.
• You see clearly and therefore make optimal
  decisions.
• You feel peaceful, loving, energetic, and happy.
• Youre in a good position to handle just about
  anything.
• However, when things happen that go against our
  desires and expectations, its easy to get pulled
  off center.

14

• We experience more fear and negativity.
• We say and do things we regret.
• The immune system weakens and our productivity
  declines.
• We lose touch with whats really important to us.
  
• Unhealthy stress increases and our sensitivity
  toward others decreases.
• And the further away from the center we move, the
  worse it gets!

15

• Thats why its so important to catch early signs
  of stress, and to use all of our creativity to
  stay as centered as possible.
• When we are centered in the heart of the Target
  of Life, difficulties still crop up, but we can
  handle them much more smoothly and effectively.
• The more centered we are, the greater our
  well-being, the wiser our choices, and the more
  effective we are in everything we do.

ability to make the wisest decisions, and the

SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTION
What does it cost to bring a vision to life? Can
you give an example of such a cost?
20
Your Vision Map is a way of tapping into one of
your important longings and then creating a
tangible picture of what you want to accomplish,
with key steps for getting there.
21
Dare to explore courageously the dreams dancing
in your heart and soul and make a commitment to
the one that calls to you most clearly at this
point in your life.
22
Craft and keep in front of you a clear picture of
your vision so that you are inspired by it and
stay on course without being sidetracked
needlessly.
23
Be prepared for both obstacles and opportunities
by remaining imaginatively flexible and
optimistically open to fresh and unexpected ways
of achieving the essence of your vision.
24
Enthusiastically share your dream with those who
are receptive, and seek support from the sources
that feel most right to you special friends,
sympathetic organizations, or, perhaps, your
relationship with God or a higher power.
25
Using all your senses, make a habit of
creating full-color mental movies in which you
see your emerging vision in its full glory and
can observe its many benefits.
26
In bringing your dream to life, be sure to enjoy
each step along the way so that you find abundant
satisfaction and pleasure through the entire
journey as well as in the final unfolding of your
vision.
27
Group Activity
SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTION Think of a
person who, in your opinion, has done a great job
of bringing a vision to life. What can you learn
from his or her success that you might apply in
your life?
28
What would you love to do? What brings you joy?
In your heart of hearts, what do you long for?
29
When you have a deep desire to accomplish
something positive and you can say, I would LOVE
to do that, you probably are tapping into a true
vision.
30
Commit to your dream, stay focused, and work
diligently to attain your objectives,
but relinquish the tendency to control all the
details. Make friends with uncertainty and the
array of possibilities it brings.
31
Dont immediately talk yourself out of something
you really want to do simply because it might not
seem practical, or youre worried about what
others might think, or you feel its too late.
32
In pursuing your dream, you will almost certainly
run into obstacles. Remember, where theres a
will, theres a way. With almost every major
challenge, the key to success lies in persistence.
33
President Lincoln said it well You can have
anything you want if you want it badly
enough. You can be anything you want to be, do
anything you set out to accomplish if you hold to
that desire with singleness of purpose.
34
Trust in your heart of hearts! Believe in your
vision! And go for it!
35
A New Possibility
Think about what you have been learning, and then
pick out one small goal you want to accomplish in
the next few days. Choose a new possibility
thats important to you. Write your action plan
now, briefly stating exactly what you will do and
by when.
36
You are never given a dream without also
being given the power to make it true. Richard
Bach
37
POSITIVE SELF-TALK
I love inviting others to share their noble hopes
and dreams as I, in turn, offer my abundant
encouragement and humble insight.
38
Remember, the more centered you are on the Target
of Life, the more accepting and loving you will
be, and the easier it will be for you to sense
and follow your heartfelt dreams and visions.
39
Together, lets envision and build a world
where all people enjoy optimal well-being. Lets
strive to awaken fresh thinking, new enthusiasm,
and abundant love. Lets create a world of
undreamed-of possibilities. It can be
done!
