Vision Statement

“I aim to be a world-class event organizer who provides audiences and clients with long-lasting and happy memories.” –Matthew 2016.

^ The vision above was my initial statement when I started this class at the beginning of the semester. But now, after really giving my future a good thinking, I came to realise that I really do not know what I would want to do in the future as my career pathway. But there is one thing that I do know what I want to become. I want to be someone respectable in today’s society.

So here is my new Vision Statement: “To become the next Bill Gates in self-development and love God.”- Matthew 2016.  

Mission Statement

With my new Vision Statement, I wish to become the next Bill Gates. Be it self-development or success or businessman-wise, I would like to be someone as respectable as Bill Gates. Also, I did mention about loving God too for I’m a Christian. I will read the Bible daily and pray daily and seek him and do God’s work.

I definitely want to complete my degrees: Bachelor of Business (International Business) and Bachelor of International Studies, which will likely be completed by the end of 2018 and get myself a job to sustain myself. I’m believe myself to be a determined person, only when I set my mind on something that I want to achieve or complete like an achievement or goals. No matter how tough the goal is, I will see it done.

I’m a family-oriented, creative, analytical, and positive person. I’m family-oriented because I think that relationships in general are the best things in life. I prefer having a deep relationship with someone, be it friends or spouse or family, rather than being superficial.

I’m creative because ever since I was young, I always tend to use my imaginative ideas to create something from Lego blocks or doodle it out on a piece of paper. I also like to get other people ideas and mash them up and create something out from it. Even till this day, I still tend to come up with some pretty crazy ideas.

You can say that I’m quite up in the air type of person since I was young, but ever since I gained more knowledge and information throughout the years of growing up, I can say that I have now become quite analytical to situations that are presented to me. The current me, tend to analyse every possible situation outcomes. This somehow led me to overthink sometimes which really stop me from doing things that I think is risky or not beneficial which in fact they are not after thinking back of that particular situation.

I’m also a positive individual, although I do often tend to analyse my situations, I will try my very best to get best possible positive outcomes rather than the negatives outcomes, I’m believe I’m positive because when my friends are in the slumps, I would always encourage them and try my best to help them get out from the dark times as much as I could.

I still have about 2 years before I graduate from Flinders University. So during that time, I think I would be able to know what I want to really do as my future career during my time in Flinders. But for now, I would use every opportunity that is given to me and let it not go to waste and use it to the fullest.

Personal Mission Statement:

Defining your personal mission statement should be very much like a large corporation; you have values, goals, stakeholders, and objectives that require both appropriate means to achieve positive ends. Here is a guide to writing your mission statement, all of these bold items should be in your statement, however they do not have to be in this order.

Your Core Values First use one or two sentences to define your values.

This is your ethical base for making decisions and taking actions

They can be rooted in your spiritual belief but be weary of religious dogma- soul search first

​These will be 'boundaries' that will come into play especially during hard times

Set Goals and Objectives 

Write three to five sentence about the most important things in your life

At the end of your life what are the most important things you must have accomplished?

Consider the 6 Fs: friends, family, fun, financial, feeling, and faith.

Friends and family are the people whom you have the greatest influence on

Fun is the adventures and events you experience

Financial is your material legacy

Feeling and faith are your emotional, spiritual or otherwise intangible legacy

Consider Your Stakeholders ​People are a huge part of our lives. Write at least one sentence considering friends, family and community.

Make a target graph with 5 layers to chart your stakeholders

The bullseye should be the most important influences in your life. Usually family.

The second circle should include the closest friends and other important folks.

The third circle should be people of medium influence. Possibly religious affiliates, close workmates, or social circles.

​The forth and fifth should include those who are important but have less influence like local or regional community members-possibly encompassing the globe.

Write a Slogan This may be a little more challenging, however consider the idea of personal slogan. It is great on business cards and can be a mantra when you feel stuck. Ask yourself these questions to brainstorm a slogan:

What defines you? (I am an independent and driven woman)

What makes you different than others who are similar you? (An accountant who loves art)
