Another weekend has passed, the end of the 1st week of the school holidays, 3 more weeks and school starts, did all my packing, have 6 boxes, will send out tomorrow, years of collected items now in the bin, im finally seated to do some reading and prepare for the next 3 days of strategic planning!
Principal gave the heads some homework for the weekend, to read "The Lemming Dilemma" by David Hutchens,ive completed mine,it helps that im taking the public transport nowadays,cos I do my readings while travelling. This book is simple yet thought provoking. Its about living with a purpose and leading with a vision. This book explores the principles of personal mastery at an individual level. The story is about Emmy who wakes up to her own purpose and vision and also inspires other lemmings to wake up to their purpose. The answers to lives meaning can only be found within, it is impossible for someone else to tell you your purpose. Every organisation has their vision and mission statement. This is later cascaded down to every employee so that their own vision and mission is in line with the company's and everyone is working towards a common purpose. Its definitely easier to follow the herd than to stop, think, know what you want, get out of your comfort zone and make that change. What is the difference between purpose and vision? Purpose I would say is more general and address on the whys of existance, whereas vision is more specific and addresses on the whats of creation.
