How to make a Vision Board
Firstly, what is a vision board and why do you need one?
Well to put it simply, it is a creative process that helps you set clear intentions and goals for what you want from your life, so you can focus on growing, transforming, and living authentically. Nearly anything can serve as fodder for your vision board - career goals, financial aspirations, emotional states, education levels… you name it! When you are working on your vision board, I always recommend keeping it small enough so that it is portable to carry with you anywhere and everywhere.

Here are the steps on how to create a vision board that works for you:
Decide what you want. What are your goals? What do you dream of? What excites you? Take some time to think about what you want to achieve in your life.
Find images that represent your goals. A picture is worth a thousand words, so find images that really capture your dreams. You can find images in magazines, online, or even in your own photos.
Choose words that represent your goals. Words can be just as powerful as images, so choose words that resonate with you and your goals. For example, if you want to be more fit, you might choose words like "healthy," "strong," and "energized."
Arrange your images and words. Once you have your images and words, it's time to arrange them on your vision board. There's no right or wrong way to do this, so just arrange them in a way that feels good to you.
Put your vision board in a place where you'll see it often. The more you see your vision board, the more likely you are to stay motivated and take action toward your goals. So please put it where you'll see it every day, like your bedroom or bathroom mirror.
Here are some additional tips for creating a vision board:
Be specific. The more specific you are with your goals, the easier it will be to visualize and achieve them.
Use positive language. Your vision board should be a source of inspiration, so use positive language when creating it.
Keep your vision board up-to-date. Add new images and words to your vision board as you achieve your goals. This will help you stay motivated and on track.
Creating a vision board is a fun and easy way to visualize and achieve your goals. So what are you waiting for? Start creating your vision board today!
How to utilize your vision board: How to use your vision board effectively
Your vision board is a powerful tool to help you achieve your goals. But in order for it to be effective, you need to use it correctly. Here are a few tips:
Place your vision board where you'll see it twice a day. The nightstand is a great option, as you'll see it in the morning and at night. You could also mount it on the bathroom mirror or somewhere else in your home where you'll see it often.
Spend a few minutes each morning using your vision board. This will help you set the tone for the rest of your day. Take time to look at each word and picture on your board, and visualize those things in your life.
Use your vision board before bed. Your brain is highly active while you sleep, so this is a great time to program your subconscious mind with your goals. Look at the items on your vision board and imagine possessing them—experience how that feels.
“Create the highest grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe.”
