Title: The Vision
Board Is Your Internal GPS System to Realizing Your Dreams
We all dream of the things
that would make us happy.
A gratifying career,
vigorous health and a life filled with exhilarating experiences shared
with family and friends.
But sometimes, no matter
how hard we work, our dreams may seem elusive, leaving us burned-out and
disillusioned.
Defining your purpose,
hopes and dreams can be a murky space for many people to be in.
You may know what you
want, but have no idea how to get there.
Visualizing your goals
provides clarity to your desired outcomes.
Vision, combined with a
purposeful commitment to worthy goals, is a healthy prescription for a
fulfilling life.
As the late self-help guru
Wayne Dyer said: “Thoughts are mental energy. They’re the currency that you
have to attract what you desire. You must learn to stop spending that currency
on thoughts you don’t want, even though you may feel compelled to continue your
habitual behaviour.”
As Dyer points out, your
thoughts are continually weaving your story and forming your beliefs and behaviors.
In terms of achieving
success, personal and external factors such as upbringing, education and
geographic location certainly come into play, but it’s also what’s inside that
counts.
Perspective is everything.
If you examine the beliefs
and habits of many successful people, you’ll find a common denominator:
They possess an unwavering
vision that a high level of success is possible.
Limiting thoughts will
yield limiting results. For that reason, it’s important to remember that
your thoughts have enormous power and can influence your experiences.
Author Tina Naughton
Powers once said: “Vision boards can provide us with a blueprint that
aligns our desires with reality.
Through the images and
words we choose, we become inspired to move forward with ideas for the future
we might never have considered before."
There are
many ways to support your goals by tapping into your imagination and
visualizing the outcome.
One way
to do this is to create a vision board or vision journal. Naysayers may argue
that mind exercises or visualizations are a load of metaphysical bunk.
However,
visualization has long been touted as a useful tool to help attain objectives.
Olympic athletes use it consistently, and there is a
growing body of neuroplasticity
research dedicated
to visualization for dealing with pain and treating illnesses.
Here are four steps you
can take to get closer to your own personal visualization:
1. Create Without Judgment.
There is no right or wrong
way to create your vision board.
Start with a canvas or
design board.
You may choose to draw or
paint on your board, add photos or pictures from magazines -- anything that has
particular meaning to you and reflects your vision for the future.
2. Look At Your Vision Board Daily.
Use a decorative picture
frame to house your vision board statements, allowing you to change them
frequently -- and be sure to place them where you can see them each day.
3. Alternatively, Create A Vision Journal.
Use it as a daily reminder
of gratitude, quotes, or just one word that resonates with you. Incorporate
sketches and allow your thoughts to flow onto the paper, without judgment.
4. Set The Ego Aside And Go Within.
Notice how you feel when
creating it. Apply your conscious, creative energy toward the possibilities of
what could be, rather than dwelling on what you may deem impossible.
Once you complete the
board, try to take small steps each day to fortify your vision.
Make choices that align
with your ideas for the future and be open to possibilities of how you can
create it.
Essentially, creating a
vision board or using a vision journal means you are projecting your own
productive endgame.
But it would be foolish to
believe that just because you consistently visualize something, it will
magically appear on your front doorstep.
Your vision must incorporate
steps to bring your dreams to fruition.
The vision board or
journal simply acts as a catalyst for change.
It is always a balance
between vision and action.
If you don’t have a vision
it’s easy to get sidetracked.
Think of it this way: If
you are in a boat on the ocean being bumped around by every wave without any
navigation system or set course, you’ll never get anywhere.
Once you’ve identified
your personal vision, it is like having your own internal GPS on at all times.
You’ll have a set of
navigational tools that will help you move in the right direction with focus,
intention, and conviction.
