FORMULATING A VISION
Vision: the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom. A mental image of what the future will or could be like.
A Vision is either Practical, i.e. based in reality and emanating from
an understanding of the status quo, as this one attempts to be, or
Utopian, i.e. an unattainable ideal state based on a dream or fantasy
