Many people don’t take out the time to envision their 2018 and having a focus is important. Ask yourself key questions about where you want to be and what will make you happy in 2018. There is a long list of things that can be envisioned in your life, which can include your career, your relationships, skills that you want to gain or places that you want to go in life. One key benefit of vision boards is that creating a space and a visual representation of where you see yourself can help bring it to life.

Visualization is a powerful exercise and the power of a person’s thoughts and mind can take you farther than you can possibly imagine. According to a popular book The Secret,

One major rule about vision boards is that essentially there are no rules. Vision boards can reflect a way that you want to feel throughout 2018, they can be goal oriented and filled with images of things you want to accomplish or they could just be filled with positive notes and images that inspire you on a daily basis. It doesn’t matter as long as you are creating a positive impact on your life by inserting direction and positivity in you thoughts on a daily basis.

Here is how I would create a goal-oriented vision board:

Step 1: Create a list of areas in your life that important to you to fulfill in 2018

Take out time, set the mood, and let your stream of consciousness reflect your deepest desire unto paper

Step 2: Collect magazines that you love or images from Pinterest that are a visual representation of your goals.

Step 3: Map out your images on your poster before taping or gluing it down.

Step 4: Find a place on your wall that you see everyday.
