Do You Have a Mission Statement?

I first learned about mission statements when I took a class from Stephen R. Covey in college at BYU back in the late 80’s.

Several people have asked about my personal mission statement recently and I have three; personal, family and business.

Our family mission statement is the broadest of the three, so I’ll share it below. It is specific to our family, but I hope it can help you as you look for ideas in developing your own mission statements.

Hasson Family Mission Statement

The mission of our family is to achieve happiness in this life and prepare for Exaltation as an Eternal family.

We will accomplish this with unconditional love and gratitude for each other. We respect one another with our words and actions allowing us to live in peace and harmony.

Our home provides a place of order, kindness, trust, understanding, safety and individual responsibility.

We have an appreciation for diversity among family members and others – for their thoughts, experiences, and individual talents.

We value time together where we comfort one another, pray, build self worth and work together, in an environment filled with encouragement, patience, honesty and fun.

We are committed to lifelong learning and continuous improvement. We strive for optimal physical and mental health. We enjoy serving others.

We will be guided by principles of the restored gospel, including faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, love of our Heavenly Father and family and obedience to the commandments.
