Vision Board

I would like to talk to you about how i am going to try and stay motivated with my new life goals.  I am a visual person, if i don't see it i forget about it, if it's not in my planner it doesn't get done.

In order to help me keep my goals in the front of my mind I am going to use a vision board.   What is a vision board??  A vision board is somewhere to visually display your goals, The theory is if you constantly see it you will want it and achieve it (in a nut shell) it all has to do with the power of attraction.  For me its all about reminding myself why I am doing this.

This is how I made my vision board.

Things you will need:
An old pin-up board, White spray paint, Drop Sheet, Mini craft pegs, Clear push pins, Vision Bard Kit (Kikki-K), Hemp Twine and Photo's/ Internet Images/Magazine Headings & Images


First thing we need to do is to give our pin-up board a face lift. I spray painted mine white, this took 1 & 1/2 cans as there were lots of holes that needed fulling. It shouldn't take long to dry, I left it out in the sun for about an hour.

While your board is drying outside, take the time to sort out what you would like on your board, this is a completely individual thing, there is no right or wrong way to go about this. Work out what is more important to you, work out if these are your goals, if you no longer feel anything about that image to put it aside. You may also want to sort these images into category's like long term, sort term goals or maybe into Home, Work, Health and Family.
I have chosen to use Quotes and Images of short term and long term goals.



Now to arrange them on the board.

I have chosen to use the push pins, hemp twine and mini pegs to attached the images to the board, this way i can change my images as my goals change.

If you don't have any of these thing around the house you could also use card stock and glue. Here is another vision board that i made using Scrapbooking card and images from the Internet.


There are also online options like VisionBoard.Me and DreamItAlive.

The last thing you need to do is decide where to put your vision board, I have chosen to put mine on the back of my bedroom door where I will see it every morning and very night. Where will you out yours??
Let me know how you use your vision board.

Talk to you soon
