I was drawing my vision board today, I just feel like my year is just starting, LOL. It had me reflecting on 2023, and how I am living my dreams, how I didn’t meet some of my goals, and ultimately it was a guide for how I want my 2024 to turn out. I am thankful that I’m living some of my dreams like working in Paris and triumphing over some of my fears. This is why vision boards are important, they not only help in visualizing our dreams, but it is a good checklist when that time of the year to take stock finally comes.
Creating vision boards is fun and easy, clarify your visions, get the materials you will need (colorful pens, drawings, etc), get images you need to visualize your vision, get working, and stick it on somewhere you can see. Alternatively, you can make one online, and print it out. The first step is the hardest, it is imperative to have a clear vision, in my case it has taken me a long time to think and decide on what I need to focus on. It is what matters the most otherwise it would be pointless making one.
It is really interesting how our lives can get busy, a vision board will help prioritize what is important and reduce distractions from things that matter. It is also a good way to cultivate gratitude in your daily life, motivate you, and a nudge in the right direction whenever you are in an overwhelming situation.
Wondering what to put in your vision boards? Here are some ideas, how about your career aspirations, where do you want to be? the self-care ideas you’ve been having, be it skin care, hair care, etc, Love and Relationships, what you want to and where you want to be in your relationship? travel plans, get pictures of your next dream destinations, and stick them there, the list is endless, but you gotta do the work, think it through and get working, you got this!
Vision boards will remain just that if you don’t act and work towards it, start saving up for that trip, join that dance class, start that fitness routine, and finally refresh that vision board whenever you no longer feel like it is propelling you to the right direction.
Happy New Year! It is not too late haha. Nothing changes between 31st Dec and 1st Jan, but we need to partition what has already happened and say ‘That’s done, it’s over’, and have a little hope that the future will be better (Copied).
Now get working on that vision board, if I convinced you to make one, or if you already have, leave a comment about what you’re manifesting this 2024.
It's not magic, but it works...
