Do you know Jason Bourne? He’s the fictional main character in Robert Ludlam’s books and movie sequels including The Bourne Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum.

He is on a mission, and it’s not impossible.

He knows why he gets up each day, he has perspective on his future, and he applies a set of values to his actions. He has a mission, vision and values (MVV) that are unique, ingrained, and lived each day. Bourne’s Why is clear, something we may lack at times.
