Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Peter Voogd talks about pursuing clarity during a time when he was broke and very unsure about himself. He found it most helpful to begin by creating an ideal vision. From there, he continued to self-evaluate. Establishing who you are, not who you want to change yourself to be, can be a helpful first step to determining your path to success.
