Visionary Construction: The Three-Stage Journey from Mind to Monument

THE ARCHITECTS VISION

Conceptualizing Your Idea

As a person with an idea, your idea inevitably begins in your mind. It is this thought or vision that begins to take shape and develop over time.

During this initial phase, it can be a good idea to be fully deliberate on the eventual development of your idea. To make it as clear as possible, to make it easier for you to 'see', create and have, once created.

Knowing as much details and attributes as possible during this stage can be important. This increases the believability of actually attaining your idea.

Then to begin the process of communicating it and to bring it from your mind, into reality.

STRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT

Creating A Vision Statement

This is the medium (middle ground) of bringing the vision into life. Into reality.

What is happening here is that you are transferring your invisible, intangible idea, or vision, into something a little more concrete.

The act of writing your vision into a statement is to provide a kind of commitment that you are in the process of building your vision into reality.

The statement crystallizes your idea, gives it its parameters and gives you an end goal, a foundation, a blueprint for you to create the plans, the actions or the strategies required to start to manifest your idea into life.

This is the 'in-between' of your vision being a figment of your imagination, into a figment of your reality.

BREAKING GROUND

Materializing Your Vision

After you have written your vision into a statement, the actual construction can begin. This is where you start to take the necessary actions along with the resources needed to build your vision into your reality.

It has gone through the process of being intangible, to semi -tangible, to the tangible. From the invisible, to the seen and maybe to the touch, in some cases.

This is the final phase of the process of bringing your ideas and vision into life.

Constructing your vision is where it all begins. This is the journey of building and if planned right, will lead to its completion in the appropriate time.

FROM THOUGHT TO REALITY

Understanding The Journey Of Creation

This is a simplified telling of the creation process, one can take. The creation process can differ slightly from one person to the next due to complexity and industry. This is designed to showcase the overall process of bringing an idea to life.

However, it can also be viewed in another way. This is a process a person can follow if they choose to.

Many times, we each have ideas or visions and we do nothing with them. We either forget about them or we just do nothing with them.

What could happen if we next get an idea, we simply choose to write it down? Giving more life to it, might allow us to see what could be done with the idea.

It could be enough to pursue the idea in some way, thus giving more life to it.

If you do have a vision in your mind and you believe it to be important to you in some way, rather than just 'acting' on it straight away. Putting actions behind it and aiming to create it in a haphazard or trial and error style.

Writing it down could further allow you to remember and develop it further. Allowing you to illustrate and expand upon the idea more.

Once it gets to a point you are happy with, this allows you to communicate it more clearly to others, so they can better understand what you are aiming to do.

On top of that, your actions are better directed and more focused as you will have a more clear vision of what you are going for.
