Usually at this time of year, everyone has a vision of how the New Year will turn out. Some create vision boards, others write down resolutions, and some simply adopt a wait and see approach. You might not know it but there is a National Vision for the country, which is, to make “Jamaica, the place of choice to live, work, raise families and do business” by the year 2030. The Planning Institute of Jamaica is the agency responsible for leading the process. Their focus is on four (4) national goals which are:
1. Empowering Jamaicans to achieve their fullest potential;
2. Making the Jamaican society secure, cohesive and just;
3. Ensuring Jamaica’s economy is prosperous; and
4. Guaranteeing Jamaica has a healthy natural environment.
Now, these are all eerily very similar to what I was envisioning as personal resolutions for this new year, that is, to excel and be prosperous while at the same time keeping healthy and safe to enjoy the successes that come my way with my loved ones. So I am thinking I am really going to have to support this Vision. Only problem is we are now at 2011 and these goals will have to be pushed into fast-forward mode in order for me to make it to 2030. Most def!
