Casting a Spiritual Vision: 3 Steps to Release the Vision of a Lifetime

This year is going to be the best year of your life. You are about to turn the biggest corner of your life. Do you know why? All of your life has been leading you up to this point in time. You were born for such a time as this. Imagine yourself casting a spiritual vision for this year that is miraculous in nature.

What is a spiritual vision? It is something you manifest by faith and it may seem just outside the realm of possibility to you naturally. It is outside of your access within your own abilities. 

How can you cast the freshest vision possible for your life? This year you can create something new under the sun, never done before. Your vision can be something not limited by the constraints of the past nor those imposed upon the present moment. Step outside the box and create the largest vision you have ever written for your life.

Jack London who was one of the first writers that ever earned a large fortune from writing along with worldwide celebrity status wrote the following. “I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in a magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live and not just exist.”

Do not let anything stop you just because it has never been done before. You could be the only one in your family, in your neighborhood, or in your generation to ever accomplish it. Anything is possible. 

“Spiritual vision requires that what we see with our eyes of our hearts will be more real to us than what we see with our natural eyes. We must see what is invisible to others.” – Rick Joyner

Ask yourself 3 questions about your vision

What is my perfect 20/20 vision for my life? How can I see with greater clarity the highest vision possible for my passion, my purpose and my destiny? How can I position myself to manifest greatness?

You were born to be a leader in your industry and take the world by storm. You were born to be a champion surrounded by others who have a unique thumbprint and will make a divine imprint on the world.

Step One: Cast Your Vision

A spiritual vision is laid out with a huge dream that you may not know how to complete. You begin it in faith that the end will manifest. It is a dream that accomplishes a purpose driven way greater than yourself. 

It may even seem impossible to fulfill. The energy behind such a vision will invite others in alongside you to help you manifest what you do not know how to do on your own. It is the largest vision possible that gives back to others in the greatest way.

The more defined and clear your vision is the more you can run with it. An example is Blake Mycoskie who wrote the book “Start Something that Matters.” He decided to start a business with a give back principle. He started TOMS Shoes and for every pair of shoes you buy, he gives away a pair to a child in a third world country. People were telling him that it should not be done as a business principle. You can’t give it all away. But, he did!

Step Two: Write the Vision Down

Write the dream out in vivid detail. Vision boards, pictures, words and vision statements. How will you know what it looks like if you cannot see it clearly? Begin with the end in mind. One of my favorite exercises I do at the beginning of a New Year is to write myself a letter for the end of that year as if my vision has already been accomplished.

So write a letter and date it for December 31st of that same year. Write yourself a letter thanking yourself for all it took you to overcome that year to see your vision fulfilled. Write it in the present tense as you are sitting at the end of the year seeing it complete.

You are practicing being in the mindset of completion. The letter goes in your goal journal, calendar or on your vision board to remind you throughout the year you have an end goal in mind. Imagine the joy you experience at the end of the year as you meet the person you have become along the way.

“Your thoughts shape your vision. You see what you choose to see.” 

Step Three: Position Yourself for Your Vision and Release it

Where are you seated right now? You can change your position anytime in life, and step into a new space. How do you position yourself for the highest manifestation of your dreams? I believe it has a lot to do with whom you sit under. Do you have a powerful mentor that challenges you and calls you out on ways you limit yourself?

You need to share your vision with someone in your inner circle to hold you accountable. The inner circle in life defines us. It is our core just like the mitochondria of a cell that gives its very life force to draw strength from. Ask those in your inner circle to invest in your vision by cheering you on during the year to make your end goal on time.

The largest of visions have to be declared aloud in front of others to hold them accountable. Release what is in your hand and let it come out of you this year. There is nothing stopping you! Ask yourself this question: Why did God put me on this Earth and isn’t it about time, I committed to manifest it?

What do you want to accomplish in 2020? Share it with us below so we can keep you accountable!

How Learning the Skill of Hope Can Change Everything

Hope isn’t wishful thinking. It’s a state of being and a skill that has profound evidence of helping people achieve success in life.

Wishful thinking, on the other hand, is like having dreams in the sky without a ladder to climb, having a destination without a map, or trying to operate a jet-engine airplane without instructions. It sounds nice but is impossible to realize. You don’t have what you need to make it happen!

What Real Hope Is

Real hope is actionable, practical, and realistic. Better yet, it’s feasible and can be learned.

One popular approach is Hope Theory. This concept is used by colleges to study how hope impacts students’ academic performance. Researchers found that students with high levels of hope achieve better grades and are more likely to graduate compared to those with less hope.

Hope can be broken down into two components:

  1. Pathways – The “how to” of hope. This is where people think of and establish plans for achieving their goals.
  2. Agency – The “I can” of hope. This is the belief that the person can accomplish their goals.

Does Hope Really Work?

According to Webster’s Dictionary, hope as a noun is defined as: “desire accompanied by expectation of or belief in fulfillment.”

As humans, we are wired to crave fulfillment. We have the ability to envision it and, through hope, make it a reality.

My Experience with Hope

For 13 years, I was a hopeless human. During my time working at a luxury hotel as a front desk agent earning $11.42 per hour, I felt the sting of hopelessness the most.

The regret of feeling my time was being stolen from me lingered every time I clocked in. Eventually, I decided to do something about it.

I gave myself permission to hope for something better. I began establishing pathways to success and regained agency by learning from self-help books and seeking mentorship.

Because I took action toward something I desired, I now feel more hope and joy than I ever felt hopelessness. Hope changed me.

Hope Actually Improves Your Life

Wishful thinking doesn’t work, and false hope is equally ineffective. Real hope, however, is directly tied to success in all areas of life.

Studies show that hopeful people tend to:

  • Demonstrate better problem-solving skills
  • Cultivate healthier relationships
  • Maintain stronger motivation to achieve goals
  • Exhibit better work ethic
  • Have a positive outlook on life

These benefits can impact work life, family life, habit-building, mental health, physical health, and spiritual practice. Imagine how much better your life could be by applying real hope to all these areas.

How to Develop the Skill to Hope

As acclaimed French writer Jean Giono wrote in The Man Who Planted Trees:
“There are also times in life when a person has to rush off in pursuit of hopefulness.”

If you are at one of those times, here are ways to develop the skill to hope:

1. Dream Again

To cultivate hope, you need to believe in its possibility. Start by:

  • Reflecting on what you’re passionate about, your values, and what you want to achieve.
  • Writing your dreams down, sharing them with someone encouraging, or saying them out loud.
  • Creating a vision board to make your dreams feel more tangible.

Dreams are the foundation of hope—they give you something meaningful to aspire toward.

2. Create an Environment of Hope

  • Set Goals: Write down your goals and create a plan to achieve them.
  • Visualize Success: Use inspirational quotes, photos, or tools like dumbbells or canvases to remind yourself of your goals.
  • Build a Resource Library: Collect books, eBooks, or audiobooks about hope and success to inspire you.

An environment that fosters hope will keep you motivated, resilient, and focused.

3. Face the Challenges

Don’t avoid challenges—overcoming them builds confidence. Participating in challenging activities, like strategic games, can enhance your problem-solving skills and reinforce hope.

4. Commit to Wisdom

Seek wisdom from those who have achieved what you aspire to. Whether through books, blogs, or social media platforms, learn from their journeys. Wisdom provides the foundation for real, actionable hope.

5. Take Note of Small Wins

Reflecting on past victories can fuel your hope for the future. Ask yourself:

  • What challenges have I already overcome?
  • How did I feel when I succeeded?

By remembering those feelings of happiness, relief, or satisfaction, your brain will naturally adopt a more hopeful mindset.

Conclusion

Hope is more than wishful thinking—it’s a powerful skill that can transform your life. By dreaming again, creating a hopeful environment, facing challenges, seeking wisdom, and celebrating small wins, you can develop the real hope necessary for success in all aspects of life.

Let hope guide you toward a brighter, more fulfilling future.
