My husband Sean and I both have vision boards up in the house, we have pictures of things we want, goals we want to achieve, powerful words and ideas we want to make happen. It was just the other day when Sean discovered he has already reached 2 of the goals on his board! He wasn't focusing on them or actively trying to achieve them really and yet he looked over at his board and said, "Wow, I did that before the date I set to it and didn't even realize it!" Now that was cool! I looked at my board and realized I had achieved one of my goals too and that I am well on my way to another as well! Neato!
When we put things in writing and we see visuals through photos or meditation it can make our goals and dreams clearer. It can remind us everyday consciously or otherwise what we are aiming for and actually help us get there! I have read about it, heard about it and even know people with testimonials swearing it works but I must admit, even though I created my vision board, and have hung photos of things I'm aiming for all over the house, (seriously) until it happened here, at home and in my life, I was skeptical. I write this to share with all of you and to encourage you to give it a try. What do you have to lose?
Sit somewhere quiet, undisturbed with a notebook and pen and begin to write out the things that you want. You can write out big goals like a new home, car and vacation, children, and or your dream guy. Get specific, what does the house look like? What kind of view? How many bedrooms, bathrooms, is there a pool? What's in the driveway? A car, truck, motorcycle? What year, make and model? Colour? Next write out some smaller goals like maybe a pair of shoes you want, or a fancy new restaurant you'd like to try, a ballet you really want to see. You can ask the universe for confidence or money too!
Once you have written down your dreams and goals both long term and short term get out the computer or some old magazines and start flipping through websites and pages to find photos that match your personal description of what you desire. Once you have found all your photos, print them or cut them out and tape or glue them onto a great big piece of posterboard. Next to each photo I'd like you to write a date that you would like to achieve your goal by. On the back you can even write down how you will feel once you've reached each one of your goals. That's it, hang it up! You're done!
Have fun with it, dare to dream and let the dreams scare and excite you! Do it with a friend or a partner. Help and encourage each other. Make sure your vision board is up and in your plain view to see everyday. Respect your vision board. Take a moment each day to look at it and smile.
