"Focusing life is like focusing your camera. Everyone has a camera lens in their heart.”
Chuck Chan, a professional leadership trainer and a corporate executive, virtually gave a speech on "Career Planning and Life Vision".
On September 26, Chan shared that vision was our unseen wealth in the workplace and life at "Gospel Talkshow," an online Christian broadcasting show.
With more than 20 years of experience as the chief executive and a professional financial manager in the US television and entertainment industry, the Chinese American Christian owns cross-cultural experiences across the United States, Canada, Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.
"We will wander or perish without a vision, no matter whether we are people or enterprises. We should understand what God wants us to do rather than what we ourselves want," he said. "Vision will determine how we spend our time and the direction of our lives."
Chan provided an experience when a professor asked him to write a statement giving his life vision. Ten years later, he found it had greatly influenced his life. After 20 years, he realized that his vision had been completely eighty percent, while so far, he has completed almost 90%." He suggested that everyone should write down their life vision statement.
"For many Christians and non-Christians, a house, a car, and a wife are the most important things in a successful life. But we can’t just only pursue them." Chan said that the most important things were master, mission, and mate.
“What is your mission in life? Who is your partner in life? Who is your master? Is it material, money, success, wealth, occupation, parents, or God?" He added that master and mission would affect who your future partner would be.
"Our unseen wealth on earth will one day become our reward in heaven. There are three unseen things of value on the earth. The first is the word of God—in heaven, we can also hear God’s words and know his wishes. The second is family members. The third is the believers in the church. The church which we could also see in heaven is the kingdom of heaven on earth. "
He stressed that all Christians should understand and meditate on God's word, share the gospel with their family, serve more people in the church, and be a good witness to God.
Chan concluded by saying that direction was more important than hard work, confidence more important than success, the ability more important than knowledge, health more important than work, EQ more important than IQ, and character more important than money.

“你的人生方向必须要对焦...如果你想一次追捕两只兔子，那么两只都将逃脱。”
在9月26日举行的“谈天社”第9期中，曾有担任企业高管20多年经验的专业领导力培训师陈顺贤就“如何发现真我——你的职业生涯规划和人生使命？”话题进行分享，强调说，“使命”是我们职场和人生中的无形财富
陈顺贤曾是一位专业的财务经理，在美国电影、电视和娱乐产业及担任行政长官有20多年的经验。他的跨文化经验包括：美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、泰国、马来西亚、新加坡，中国大陆和台湾、香港地区。
无论我们人也好，企业也好，没有使命都会彷徨甚至灭亡。 要明白上帝要我做的是什么,不是自己想做什么。
“使命是有后果的，它能决定、 改变我使用时间的方法，改变我们生命的方向。”陈老师说。
他举出自己的例子说，“之前一个教授让他们写人生使命宣言，结果10年之后发现这个人生使命宣言对他有很大的影响；再过20年，我发现已经这个使命宣言成功了80%，到现在差不多完成了90%。” 陈老师建议大家要清晰写下来自己的人生使命和职业使命宣言。
你人生最重要的3M——Master,Mission,Mate主权、使命与伴侣
“提起成功人生，第一个就是房子，第二个就是车子，第三个就是妻子——这三个好像是当下许多基督徒和非基督徒都追求的成功目标。但我们的人生不是仅仅追求这些。”陈老师说到，自己认为的一个“富裕人生”应该要首先清晰知道三个“M”：
Master：你人生的主权是谁？Mission：你的人生有什么使命？Mate：你人生的伴侣是谁？
“主权跟使命，会影响你将来的那个伴侣是什么人。
“第一个问题：谁是你的主人？到底是物质、金钱、成功、财富、职业、父母、还是上帝？”
“我们地上的无形财富，有一天会变成天上的无形财富。”
“第一个就是神的话语在地上，天上也会听到会摸到神的话语和心声；第二个是家人；第三个是信了耶稣的家人（教会），我在地上的教会在天上也会看到。
所有基督徒应该有的使命：是明白默想神的话语，跟我们家人传福音，在教会服侍带领更多的人，做好见证。
“最后，我做一个结论：方向比努力重要。信心比成功重要。能力比知识重要，健康比工作重要，EQ比IQ重要。品格比金钱重要。”
