Great people are the people with visions. They have grown, they have seen, and they have conquered. It is the „seeing‟ part that we recognise as visions. These are the components that are useful to us. Envisioning has various aspects to it. One of the chief points is that it has to be within the realms of possible reality. But what is „achievable reality‟? Do you only develop visions within your possible means? Then how do people achieve the impossible?
