What is a vision board?
A vision board is simply a visual representation or collage of the things that you want to have, be, or do in your life. It usually is a poster of cut out pictures, drawings and/or writing of things you want in your life.

The purpose of a vision board is to activate the law of attraction to begin to pull things from your external environment that will enable you to realize your dream. By putting all your desires on paper in the form of pictures and writing, you are charging your emotion and you will begin to manifest these things in your life.
This is the science behind the law of attraction.
The law of attraction states that we attract into our lives anything that we give attention to, regardless whether it be positive or negative. From a psychological view, the law of attraction can be best explained by the information filtering system of the brain known as the reticular activating system (RAS). Vision boards serve the role of programming the RAS to tune into external stimuli that can help us move closer towards our intentions.

Your vision board is only limited by the extent of your creativity. Theres no “right way” to make it.
The general elements that a well-designed vision board should include are:
Emotional. Each picture and or drawing should summon a positive feeling within you. Looking at your vision board should make you happy everytime and fuel your passion to achieve whatever is on it.
Visual. Make your board as visual as possible. Your subconscious mind works in pictures and images.
Strategic Placement. Your vision board should be placed in a location where it is alway seen for maximum exposure. Your subconscious mind needs to always be reminded of what is present on your board in order to manifest the desires quickly then you hope.

What you’ll need to make it

  • Foam core board (recommended) or poster board
  • Old Magazines. (Coloured images)
  • Glue
  • Scissors

    • Compile your pictures by going through the magazine and selecting those that are relevant to your goals.  Then you’ll need to sort through them and cut out the ones that impact you the most emotionally. Cut the extraneous material away from the image. You will then arrange your pictures creatively on your board. Remember, your board should resonate with your emotions. Once you are content with the placement, begin to glue. You can also add writing to it as well.
    Make sure to update your vision board if needed.
    It needs to inspire you always. If at some point something on it doesn’t seem to spark that fire for you anymore, update it with new fresh images that inspire you.

    Always remember.. If you can believe it, you can achieve it!
