How does Mission pair with Vision?

Why is a Mission important?

Vision answers the question of “Why” your business exists and the significance pursing this Vision. Mission answers the question “How” you’ll make progress towards your Vision.

Here’s a brief excerpt from my most recent section of the Productivity Guide for Bootstrapped Christian Entrepreneurs. https://sites.google.com/anchorcoaching.co/productivityguide/Home/Mission

Mission: Making progress towards your vision.
While your Vision motivates and inspires you and your team for the long journey ahead, your Mission provides a tangible roadmap for how you’ll get there. It helps identify your highest priorities and clarifies the action steps needed to move forward. With a clear Mission, setting milestones and goals becomes easier, as it directs your efforts towards real progress.

Your Mission allows you to be specific about the actions your organization needs to take. Paired with your Vision, the "why" behind your business, your Mission becomes the path that drives progress. From here, everything flows. It organizes your efforts and brings clarity to you and your team.

As Yoda scolded Luke Skywalker, “All his life has he looked away, to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was, hmm? What he was doing.”

Vision without Mission keeps you dreaming about the future at the expense of acting in the present. However, Mission without Vision keeps you working hard today but without direction for tomorrow. This is why both are essential.
