Personal Mission Statement Worksheet
One of the biggest challenges is identifying what meaning
and purpose we have and how this is displayed every day in our lives. My
purpose is slightly different than my mission statement. My purpose is to help
build the kingdom of God through my gifts and skill set. A personal mission
statement is different in that it specifically states how our purposeful
actions will be implemented, hopefully daily and with every interchange you
have. It is a tool to create goals both in a short term and long term sense. My
personal mission statement is simply: I strive to create awareness in
individuals, engage in active listening and healing conversations, and
encourage others in building relationships for the glory of God.
To build a mission statement, basically you need to
understand your purpose first and accept it.
A purpose creates energy in us and is usually bigger than we can
accomplish alone. Many people have a vision created out of their purpose, but
for this exercise we are focusing on the mission statement. As demonstrated
above, the mission statement breaks down the purpose into some clear means of
action and expresses some of the things I value. The action words in my mission
statement are “strive” “create” “awareness”, “engage”, “active”, “listening”,
“healing”, “encourage”, “building”, “relationships”, and “glory”.
These words are all action based and again provides a framework to
accomplish my purpose on a daily basis.
Below are some tasks to complete an initial mission
statement for yourself. You may find yourself changing this somewhat over time
and that is to be expected. A lot of times, you may want to write these out on
sticky notes and then organize them into categories, then complete sentences.
Character and Influences
1. How have
other people influenced your life? Identify 2 to 3 qualities that you admire
and would like to model in your own life.
2. If you
can imagine the best you can possibly be, what values would this say about you?
What roles (husband, wife, child of God, sister, brother, worker, boss, father,
mother, and so on) in your life do these values impact on a daily basis. For example, a statement such as “I am a
caring and empathic” person indicates two values “caring” and “empathic”. They
are values that can be demonstrated in how you engage with others.
Life Legacy
1. How do
you want people to remember you? What are the 3 or 4 words that describe this?
2. How do
you want to express these in every area of your life? (Physical, mental,
emotional, spiritual, financially, family, work, relationships) Write a simple
statement for each area; for example: I am in charge of my physical well-being.
To do this I will engage in eating right, exercising regularly, etc.
Gifts and Skills
1. What are
my spiritual gifts? What are my talents? What are my skills? A spiritual gift
may be compassion for others, a talent may be being creative, a skill may be
being organized and a problem solver, etc. How do these play out in my life?
Goals
1. For each
question, name 2 to 3
a. What are
past goals that you have accomplished in your life? How did those goals
manifest themselves in your life? Did they build upon each other? Were they
specific, measurable, and have a time frame. What are new goals or outcomes you
have for your life?
Draft Mission Statement
1. From the
information above, begin to draft your mission statement. Keep it simple,
clear, and brief. Write one to two sentences from each area above and narrow it
down into action statements that flow together. You can write it in a statement
form or in bullet points. Remember to keep it positive and doable.
2. Play with
this mission statement and once you have it refined, make it into a visual that
you can see every day.
