What is it that makes an individual, a visionary? Certainly
its imagination, the ability to see, to envision what others cannot.
But besides being people of great imagination, visionaries tend to see
the world from a unique perspective. A broader more encompassing perspective.
Visionaries see not only the part; they see the whole. Visionaries can
look beyond the trees and see the forest. And in deed this visionary perspective
has powered one of the most dramatic successful stories of the 20th century.
It is the story of a company called Nikken and the story begins with the
companys visionary founder, Mr Isamu Masuda.
"I have been a life long student of good health. This interest began
as a result of a series of health problems I had in my childhood. In earlier
days I didnt understand the keys to good health and healthy living.
I was an eager student. I learned a great deal from teachers and gradually
over time I came to a greater understanding of health and wellness. Over
time I developed a vision, a vision for total wellness. I saw that total
wellness rested on 5 pillars; a healthy body, healthy mind, healthy family,
healthy society and healthy finances."
