Episode 59: Do You Have A Vision For What You Want?

On today's episode, hosts Jerry and Jacobe talk about vision. Without a proper vision, people perish. If you don't have a vision, you don't know where you are going, you will be riding on somebody else's chariot to their destination. When Jerry continuously got rejected in interviews with different organizations, he thought that his spot was always to be second in life. It wasn't until Jerry started hanging out with some different folks and they got into a coaching program, and somebody told him, life is there for you to go get and there are things in your life that you need to work towards getting; For him, that's been a huge shift. Tune in and be inspired, strengthen your vision, and plan your next right step to success.

Episode Highlights: 

• We all have a vision, it is  just that we don't necessarily think about it, says Jacobe.
• There are people out there that don't have a vision, they have a worldview, and they have an idea of life, but they don't have a vision of what their life is supposed to look like, says Jerry.  
• Jacobe suggests that a  lack of vision is a vision, the fact that you don't think you can be number one, that is your destination. 
• Jacobe always wanted to play football when he was growing up and that was his vision.
• Growing up, the only vision that Jerry had was to avoid being in his house. Outside of not having a vision, he became really good at avoidance. 
• For Jacobe the main part is just figuring out what he really wants and what he desires. 
• On Jerry's vision Board is a house with a big, long porch overlooking a little field with a dock and a pontoon boat and a couple of the Cracker Barrel rocking chairs on the porch.
• Money is going to be the magnifying glass to all the things in your life. Because to do all the things in your life, to do anything in your life you need, there has to be a money component, says Jerry.
• Jacobe talked about the NFL as his vision, that was his dream. He shares what it felt like when he had to decide that it was no longer going to happen or was no longer his dream.
