Building a hotel like the Burj Al Arab would seem an almost impossible task given the fact that the man behind the whole idea wanted a building that would cross all boundaries be it in terms of luxury, size and other factors to become the world’s first 7 star hotel. So what were some of the principles applied when building this magnificent building?
Vision
Definition - Unusual competence in discernment or perception; intelligent foresight: a leader of vision.

3. A mental image produced by the imagination.
4. The mystical experience of seeing as if with the eyes the supernatural or a supernatural being.
5. A person or thing of extraordinary beauty.

In simple words - A 7 STAR HOTEL: Never before seen or done. Main architect – Tom Wills-Wright

Vision is what enables us from time to time to keep working towards achieving both our long-term and short-term goals, be it getting a certain grade, getting a well paying job or even a stable relationship that would eventually lead to a successful marriage. This therefore renders vision very applicable to our day to day lives. Vision can help us achieve that
