Vision

This is what I got when I searched on google.

1.the faculty or state of being able to see.
Syn. Eyesight

2.the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom.
Syn: Inspiration, innovation

When I heard the ' vision' word suddenly I remind it means looking something. SeeingLooking at something in an artistic way their perspective, their talk in the type of work they do, the colours they use, the images and story they wish to convey. , or a goal or future achievement.
