Having Fun with Vision Boards

Vision Board

A different approach

At the outset of each year I create a vision board.
.
Vision boards are a wonderful visual and innovative approach to set and manifest your dreams and goals.

.

I start with a vision board of all the general things I desire, need, wish, or want to keep in my life. I put the major themes in my life on the board like family, health, children, love, work, etc.

Searching for Images

I search for pictures which resonate and reflect the visions I have in mind. I find them on sites like pixabay.com. (Magazines are also a great source.)

.

I love this part of the process: exploring ideas and finding images. It should be fun! If you’re not feeling into it, wait for a better day. I believe that positive energy and emotions while creating your board is essential.

.

Next, I find a board (poster or cardboard) to use for my vision board. Either I print out the images, sorting through and placing them into various groups, or I go through the ones I’ve downloaded and group them into folders (on my laptop or iPad.)

Wishing and hoping like you’re a kid again!

Now begins the fun part: cutting the images and sticking them down -or- constructing a digital collage (I use Procreate) of the photographs, illustrations, or words to reflect my vision of the year to come. Using colour to certain areas is a great way to highlight them. Writing headings or keywords on your board is an exciting part of the process.

Here is a portion of my 2020 vision board. I hope it will inspire you to create your own board! These are some of my main goals for this year. Check my website to see what I’m working on now!

.

I keep my vision board as the background to my iPad, and I also print out a copy to affix to the wall at my desk.

.

This year, I will go one step further and make mini vision boards every two months to discover where my focus remains as time advances.

Create your own board!

Has anybody else created their vision board for the year?

Comment here if you have, and I’d love to see it, if you wish to share!

Have fun with your dreams and let’s see what you create!
