In this December series, we’re exploring how to envision your best year ever. This five-part journey helps you prepare for 2025 with clarity and purpose. Previous episodes covered reflecting on your past, looking ahead, and envisioning your best self. Today, we’re diving into creating a vision statement—a key step to keep your goals and dreams top of mind.
Why a Vision Statement Matters
Your vision statement provides focus and motivation. It reminds you why your goals matter, aligning your daily habits with your long-term aspirations. By revisiting your vision often, you’ll stay connected to the purpose behind your efforts.
How to Write Your Vision Statement
Use this simple template to create your statement:
- I am a woman who [describe who you are and what you do].
- I want to [describe what you want to achieve or how you want to live].
- Because I am passionate about [describe your purpose or passion].
For example: I am a woman who is strong, happy, and vibrant. I want to foster family connections, improve my energy, and start a nonprofit because I am passionate about living a life of purpose and joy.

Why a Vision Statement Matters
Your vision statement is more than just words on paper; it’s the foundation for your goals and the motivation behind your actions. By keeping your vision top of mind, you’ll:
- Stay focused on what truly matters.
- Align your daily habits with your long-term aspirations.
- Remind yourself why you’re making an effort, even when it’s hard.
How to Create Your Vision Statement
If you’ve never written a vision statement before, don’t worry—I’ve got a simple, fill-in-the-blank template to get you started:
- I am a woman who [describe who you are and what you do].
- I want to [describe what you want to achieve or how you want to live].
- Because I am passionate about [describe your purpose or passion].
Examples
- I am a woman who is strong, happy, and vibrant. I want to foster connection with my family, improve my energy, and start a nonprofit because I am passionate about living a life with purpose and joy.
- I am a woman who loves challenges, solves problems, and helps people. I want to create opportunities to be challenged and open to new possibilities because I am passionate about living a regret-free life.
Tips for Making Your Vision Statement Work for You
- Write it down. Post it where you’ll see it daily—on your car dash, planner, journal, or vision board.
- Record it. Use an app to create an audio version and listen to it regularly.
- Keep it visual. Pair your statement with images or designs that inspire you.
The key is to make your vision statement a living, breathing part of your daily life.
