Have you ever
realized how important it is to have a vision of where you are going?
Without a vision someone or anyone may lead you where they want you
to go.

Proverbs 29:18
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the
law, happy is he.
1. What Is a Vision
Board?
Believing and
visualizing go hand in hand. A vision board is a board that shows
where you want to be or go in your life. A unique thing about a
vision board is that it will show your dreams. When your dreams,
ideas, and ambitions are on your board, you can then visualize them.
You can see them more clearly.
2. Family
My grandchildren and
I sat down one day and made our own individual Vision Boards. I was
quite amazed at the ideas and goals that they wanted for themselves.
I was so very proud of them and I told them. I bought bulletin
boards, crayons markers, scissors, and magazines and we basically
made the board from that. I emphasized that they need to look at
their vision board daily.
3. Online Vision Board
There are online
vision boards such as secret boards on Pinterest. If you are a
visual person and you prefer doing a board online, Pinterest is
perfect for that, because you can make a secret board that is seen
only by you and not the public. On this board you can pin ideas,
dreams, and goals that you have for your life. I preferred the
physical bulletin board.
I love this video
with Steve Harvey and Oprah Winfrey discussing vision boards. He
emphasizes that failure is not the end all.
4. Creative
Get creative with
your board. There are no limits you might want to use buttons,
safety pins, tape or even more to visualize your dreams. Your
vision board should motivate you and be placed where you can
visualize it often. In my article Do You Know There is Awesome Power in the Word?, I talk about the importance of words. Well being able to visualize
and see what it is you are striving for is equally important. Just
as you revise your goals you can also revise your vision board.
According to Psychology Today a study that was done showed
weightlifters patterns activated in the brain when lifting hundreds
of pounds were similar to those activated when they only imagined
lifting. In other words, they visualized it and both were more
effective than either one alone.
5. Bucket List
Maybe it is not
enough that you made a bucket list of things that you want to do
before you pass away. Maybe you might want to do a vision board to
visualize those things that you want to do. Remember this is your
board. There are no rules. For more information about various types
of vision boards visit the link listed below:

Hi Betty,
I have always been a dreamer and an achiever, so creating a vision board would have been a great way to express my goals and aspirations. Your post has motivated me to explore an online vision board.
