Be More: Baby steps to the life you want– starting now!
One of my favorite tasks to accomplish for the new year is to create a vision board to lay out my hopes and dreams for the upcoming 365 days and beyond.
Here is a peek at the beginnings of my vision board for this year:
This board is a work in progress, but it’s starting to take shape.
I like to use photos and words that remind me of important priorities and goals. Sometimes the photos are symbolic to represent a non-tangible concept that I want more of in my life, like simplicity or creativity. Other photos are representations of actual physical items that I am hoping for or actions that I want to take.
Making a vision board helps to inspire me and encourages me to keep going when challenges arise. The visual reminder keeps my goals in front of me and helps me to maintain my focus.

I just took a pile of magazines to cut up to make my own. I want to frame it and hang it in my bathroom so I can look at it while I brush my teeth (twice a day).
I also wrote statements (goals) that I want to accomplish in MS Word. I put it as my wallpaper on my desktop on my computer so I can see it many times a day:
grow in my marriage
increase my faith
watch my children grow into responsible men
be more healthy
love and inspire my students
relax by camping, reading and writing
have an organized house and routine
Thank you for your inspiration!
I absolutely LOVE the idea of making that your wallpaper – brilliant!
Vision boards really work. I have been doing them for years with a small group of friends. Last year I decided do vision boards with my kids and we hung them up in our kitchen for the entire year. Everything we each glued on our boards came true. We made new ones for this year also.
That is a great idea to do them with your kids Ivy. I had my daughter do one and it really helped her focus on what was important in her life.
