Stephen Covey's Daily Greatness: Vision and Innovation

The article analyzes the foundations of creative agency, pointing to the inseparable link between integrity of character and the ability to create valuable dreams. The author opposes the 'tyranny of the current' with a vision that is not merely a fantasy, but a conscious project of a new order in personal life, business, and law. A key element of the process is the transition from passive regret ('if only') to active future design ('next time'). The text emphasizes that vision alone must be supported by innovativeness—understood as humility toward matter and a readiness to experiment—and anchored in quality and ethics. Only such an approach allows one to avoid the trap of operational pride and build lasting success based on the common good.
