If Love Songs Were About Your Mission and Vision

I have always wondered what would happen if you interpreted some love songs as referring to your life’s mission and vision instead of romantic love. A particular song comes to mind. “Do I Have to Say the Words” by Bryan Adams.

I don’t wanna let you go

So I’m standing in your way

I never needed anyone like I’m needing you today

Your mission and vision, which are bigger than you, need you. Who else can bring them to life but you? No one else has your particular set of talents, abilities, points of view and life experiences.

Do I have to say the words?

Do I have to tell the truth?

Do I have to shout it out?

Do I have to say a prayer?

Must I prove to you — how good we are together?

Do I have to say the words?

What do your mission and vision need to do to get your attention? What do they need to do for you to finally realize that they need you to work on realizing them?

Are you waiting for them to prove to you that you and them are linked together for a reason? Do you want guarantees that everything will work out?

You have to act on faith and things will start happening. You need to act before even knowing whether you will see the results you seek. It is when you take action and work towards your mission and vision that the next steps will appear and you will get closer and closer to success.

Rescue me from despair

Tell me you will be there

Help me please — darling rescue me

Your mission and vision have been patiently waiting for you all this time. What are you waiting for? Don’t you see that each day that goes by without you working on them you are condemning them, and yourself, to despair?

No one else can rescue them but you. And no one else can rescue you but them. Once you start working on them they will transform you and rescue you from a life of quiet desperation.

Every dream that we share

Every cross that we bear

Can’t you see, darling rescue me

Your mission and vision are ready to be with you and start the journey towards making your dreams a reality. It does not matter which cross you might have to bear, it will all be worth it in the end.

So, what do you say? Will you rescue your mission and vision and start working on them today?
