vision

**Vision** 

Great leaders, like St. Josemaria, Mother Teresa, start with a simple vision they can evangelize internally and externally. Simplicity and strength of message are essential. 

 Mother Teresa had the vision of serving the poorest of the poor before she founded the Missionaries of Charity. Her personal vision became the vision for the organization.

How do we get such strong convictions in our vision? Your vision comes from your lived experiences and beliefs. 

No one else have the same lived experience as you that you can strongly advocate for. 

Twenty years of exposure to poverty taught Mother Teresa the importance of serving the underserved in particular ways. Can you imagine the young Bill Gates setting up an organization like the one Mother Teresa did? It would have been terribly difficult because Bill Gates did not have her direct understanding of poverty.
