For girls to claim their voice, share their visions, and join a new generation of confident girl leaders and social innovators.

MY VISION IS…

to be able to influence the decisions that affect the health and wellness of my community.

HOW TO WRITE VISIONS


1. Imagine you wake up in the morning to find out all your dreams have come true.

What do you see?
What have you accomplished?
What has changed?

2. Write your visions down by completing the prompt:

“My vision is _______”

WHAT IS A VISION?


Your vision is what you want to be, do, feel, think, own, associate with, or impact by some date in the future.

Your vision guides your life and provides direction – it illuminates your way.

WHY SHARE YOUR VISIONS?


Your visions can help you set your personal and professional goals – guiding you towards what you want to see, feel, and achieve.

Writing and sharing your visions helps you stay true to the future you want for yourself, regardless of what anyone expects of you.

Why are we doing this?

Because by reading, writing, and sharing your visions, you give other girls the confidence to pursue theirs.

As girls grow older, especially during teenage years, something happens, and they begin to speak their mind less, reporting feelings of inadequacy and fear of rejection. When girls doubt their own judgments they start to lose their assertiveness and optimism. Harvard researchers have coined this phenomena, “losing voice”.

Stating a vision is a powerful way to affirm your values, helping to set your goals, measure your progress, and raise aspirations.
