Care to share your Personal Mission Statement? [How to be an Original]
A couple of months ago, I shared the process of writing my personal mission statement on the blog. I started by defining my personal core values, translated that into my personal mission statement and followed through by making guidelines and goals.
At the time I used a Dutch website that guides that process and gives examples of the values and mission statements of other people. Although it’s important to really connect to your own values and define your own mission statement, examples are a great way to get inspired. They also can open your eyes to areas of your life that you may have unwillingly left out.
My blogging friend Stephen of Productivity in Context came up with the idea of building a list of personal mission statements, and asked several fellow bloggers to participate. So this post is an attempt to build a list of examples of mission statements of the readers of How to be an Original. But I’m also very interested to know how you use them, or why you’re not making one.
Have it or hate it? … personal core values, mission statements?
Do you have … (or hate)
- Personal core values?
- A personal mission statement?
- A guiding principle?
How do you use them …
- All the time in everyday life?
- Only when the going gets really tough?
- Only on new years eve?
I’ll kick off with mine in the comments…
