My Vision and Values

My vision is not really clear to me yet. I always thought I should study business but I'm not exactly sure what I intend to do with it. I hope to see myself as a successful person one day and I would like my evolvement in becoming successful happen as quickly as possible. I see myself working for an international company but no idea what it will be involved in. Writing a vision statement is greatly beneficial for planning your future. It helps you to see where your at dealing with your dreams and ambitions. Without a clear vision of where you are heading it would be difficult to plan your success. My main challenge in writing my vision statement is not knowing the future for sure. Also by me saying I want to become this or that I feel in some small way I am limiting my capabilities or dreams. I do believe it is a good way to enhance your development as a business student but I just don't know what will happen.

I believe values are very essential to working or operating your own business. I was labeled as the humanitarian set because of my desire to be successful and to make others around me successful and happy. I am not a selfish person but I do enjoy things for myself. As much as its great to be having fun, its much more fun when people are having fun with you. My two favorite values are strength and people. It is necessary to have strength to overcome any obstacle. Also I believe in people, people are what we are and we must respect them and understand them to reach our full potentials. I try to show my strength in the things I do every day by having patience with the obstacles and trying to do the best I can do. I am courteous to everyone I meet, I love to know people's stories and this exemplifies my value in people. 

I found that hospitals generally have the same idea as me when it comes to values. One hospital in particular is Sibley Memorial Hospital in D.C. Its vision is " to provide quality health services and facilities for the community, to promote wellness, to relieve suffering, and to restore health as swiftly, safely, and humanely as it can be done, consistent with the best service we can give at the highest value for all concerned". This statement exemplifies my values in strength and people. To work in an environment such as this would be demanding but comfortable and enjoyable.
