Think About It Thursday: Don’t Let Someone Else’s Guidance Override Your Vision
Yes, it’s helpful for visionaries to invest in mentors, coaches or mastermind groups for support in realizing our ideas.
But it’s also important for us to be mindful of what we’re buying into.

On this minisode of Leading Visionaries, Anjel describes the danger of getting caught up in someone else’s path to success and letting their direction override your vision.

Listen in for insight on practicing an organic approach to visioning and learn how to measure your progress in a way that aligns with your definition of success.
