Do you want to develop super focus and clarity
in your life?
If so, the creation of a simple dream board or vision board
may be the very answer that will help to place you in the league of
the super achiever.
So what exactly is a vision board?
Also known as ‘dream boards’, they are a simple and visual
representation of your goals, aims and objectives in life. Usually they
are no more than and eclectic mixture of pictures and images which accurately
portray something which you wish to own, become or achieve in the near
future.
Most vision boards would be a collection of images cut out from
old magazines, with a few additional photographs all pasted onto a board
which is then hung in a place of prominence so you will be reminded
of your goals every time that you pass.
However, what is of most importance is what they mean to their creator
and the intention behind creating them.
For some people their vision board becomes the big picture of their
life, and a route map to their success. As our mind moves us towards
the achievement of what we think about most a vision board makes perfect
sense. We are in fact creating a giant aide-memoire that is a constantly
reminder of the route we have set for ourselves in life.
At subliminal level the act of creating a dream board becomes a powerful
intention and driving force to take positive action and start achieving
and moving us towards our objective.
Dream boards can specifically focus on just one goal, or a mixture of
all of your goals, the choice is yours. If you are a visual person,
then time spent in developing a creative and exciting vision board will
be a strong motivator for you to take action on a regular basis.
A tried, tested and proven principle…
The marketing and advertising industry have been using the dream board
principle successfully for many years. They well know that a good picture
or image can often do more to fire the desire of potential prospects,
than a thousand well written words. So why shouldn’t it work well
for you also.
You can get started on your vision board today by collecting suitable
photographs and images as and when you see them. As your collection
grows you can start to organise them into more specific goals and objectives.
One person that I know created his vision board digitally in a graphics
program on his computer. He then sent his high definition file to a
local digital printer to reproduce as a large poster size images.
Surprisingly
he managed to get 5 high quality prints for under£20! He then
hung his vision boards around his home and place of work.
He also turned that same vision board into a screen saver for his computer
which means he was constantly exposed to it and what he wanted to achieve.
Remember to hang your vision board in prominent position where
you will see it regularly.
There are many amazing stories about the success of vision boards and
how they help you achieve your goals. The one I like most is about the
person who discovered that he was living in the exact house from one
of his early vision boards.
The
reason he didn’t immediately recognise this fact was that he made
a number of house moves as his career escalated and had left his vision
boards safely packed and in storage.
Only after he had moved into his recently acquired mansion and still
unpacking, his son queried the contents of the unpacked storage box
in his study did he make this remarkable discovery.
Put your life into top gear by developing a vision board today!
