Where there is no vision, the people perish ….
The Bible (Proverbs 29:18, KJV) |
| |
| Are we Visionary or Visionless? |
Outstanding people are proud to be who they are.
Who they are defines and determines what they do. |
| Do we Kenyans know who we are? Do we really know what we stand for? |
|
 |
| It is not political ideology that will drive Kenya. It is a common vision that the people pursue, a common creed irrespective of differences in age,ethnicity, occupation, education, skill, talent etc. |
| |
Do we know our vision? |
| Are we an outstanding people or are we compromising our heritage by accepting mediocrity as our lot? |
| Life determines structure. Structure should not determine life. Structure should facilitate life within our vision. |
| Are we building structures and systems that support the life we envision for ourselves? |
| Or are we choosing to let the structures and systems already in place to stifle positive progress? |
| Are we gaining skills to simply get jobs or do we seek to address our needs? |
| |
| As long as we are conditioned to think that education is the key to get a job, we will be operating from a very limited worldview. Beyond job hunting, are we deliberately nurturing an entrepreneurial mindset that addresses the needs of our people in our land. |
| |
| Are we taking care of the resources we have to meet our needs today and the needs of yet- to- be-born Kenyans? Or are we being wasteful? |
| |
| |
| As its people are, so is a nation. |
| Effective vision is owned by all – the people and their representatives. Every person is important, none is insignificant. However small or big, each individual’s contribution builds to the whole. |

| Kenya’s Vision |
In the language of our anthem, our vision is to be a blessed nation.
We envision ourselves as a blessed nation filled with thanksgiving.
The journey between being blessed and being thankful is in right living.
Right living is in honouring God in all we do. |
| |
| |
Are we living to fulfil our vision or are we simply paying lip service to God of All Creation? |
