A well-thought-out mission statement provides everyone with your core leadership values and priorities. It identifies the general direction of your actions to you and your team.It also can vocalize your priorities to your team when you are not physically present.

The Benefits

A personal mission statement is a written declaration of your core purpose, and what your priorities are.It is different from a 'vision' statement and is a briefing on what you would be doing, not what you would be achieving.

Personal Mission Statements

Distribute your mission statement to those closest to you. A personal mission statement lays bare our thought process and expectations to those we work with. It is advised to ask for feedback and suggestions, or just have a conversation about it.

Disseminate 

Determine your core values, key traits, and beliefs.Ask yourself what you believe to be necessary to succeed, and what traits you wish to see and not see in others. Clarify each aspect with yourself and be concise in creating the mission statement.

Define

The actual execution of what your core values are, a demonstration of your personal mission statement, is crucial. If your daily actions, practices and directives do not match up with what you have envisioned, they are useless.A mission statement provides people with information on who you are as a person, and it should align with your daily decisions.

Demonstrate

It is common in all branches of the U.S. armed services for top-ranking officials to develop and declare their philosophy of leadership, also known as their personal mission statement. But personal mission statements aren't just for top-ranking officials; they are necessary for everyone who desires to become a better version of themselves.
