Erro comum:
Learners sometimes use "envision" without a clear object, saying things like "I envision" and stopping there. In most cases, English needs you to say what you envision (e.g. "I envision a better job" or "I envision working abroad"). Learners may also confuse "envision" with "plan"; "envision" is about imagining a future situation, while "plan" usually includes deciding specific steps.

Erro comum:
Learners sometimes think "envision" is only about the future. In this sense, it can also be used for things in the present or past that you cannot see but can picture in your mind. Another mistake is to say "envision about" (e.g. "I envision about my goals"); in English, you usually say "envision something" without "about".
