Technical search, using technology to find trapped victims - with some help from man’s best friend
By Wayne Bailey, USA
Have you ever heard the inner voice speak out to you? That’s the birthplace of vision. The inner voice that starts within and is asking, “What is your mission in life”? Whatever you put your sights on, it will not come to pass unless you have a “Why that makes your cry.” What is your why? What is the very thing you can’t live with or without.
What makes you work day and night and reminds you of your vision? You work a couple of extra shifts a week or month? Perhaps sending your kids to private school? Having a second home on the beach? I’m not talking about becoming a slave to your job but to what keeps you focused? Unless there is a strong enough reason and it comes from the depths within, you will not accomplish the task or goal.
There is the grumpy voice. You’re the one that can take a lemon and turn it into lemonade with this voice. If you’re discontent with life, the very thing you’re disgusted with can bring you a vision to make life better. If you’re tired of sitting in traffic everyday on the way to work, you just might come up with a vision to work from home, change your work schedule to leave home early and leave work early find a way to work from home or your favourite vacation spot. If you make positives changes in your life because of the stress, you have the catalyst for vision.
The smiley voice knows you’re unable to accomplishment great things alone. John Maxwell said, “If you want to lead others to greatness, find a good mentor, an advisor who can help you sharpen your vision.”
No one man or woman had ever accomplished anything great unless they had help. The CEO of a Fortune 500 company needs their employees. A fire officer knows he or she can’t fight the fire alone. Even the richest men and women in the world need others to help fulfil their vision.
Zig Ziglar said, “You can only get what you want, if you help enough other people get what they want”, so practice giving before you ask a hand.
