Vision board 101
Vision boards are solely focused on creating a positive future. They're
practical effective tools for helping you get clear on how you want your life to
be, look and feel. When you're clear, you can focus your mind and energy on
the work, people and opportunities that will bring you closer to that goal.
Vision boards are for every part of your life - day-to-day, and the big future.
That's why some people call them dream boards, future boards, or
inspiration boards.
This journal steps you through the process of making your own vision board,
from why you might feel you need to create one, through to what to do after
you've made it.
Enter your dream life
Most people's dreams are well and truly erased from their lives by the time
they leave their teens. The demands of living in the 21st century leave little
room for much else beside work, family and friends. If you're lucky you have
some headspace to add in your own wellbeing, eating reasonably well and
taking a holiday when you can fit it in.
The idea that you have created everything in your life can be downright
scary. It's like it's all just happened while you were paying attention
elsewhere: like the default summary of everything you didn't consciously
think about.
So a vision board is a chance to draw a line in the sand, to get clear on what
you really want, give yourself a powerful belief makeover and allow those
forgotten dreams to bubble to the surface.
If you see something, create something
Humans are highly visual. Our brains like pictures. Chances are that you're
reading this journal right now because you have a call to build the life you
want, in pictures - to get it out of your head and into the real world. The
vision board is an exciting and fun first step.
Types of vision board
It’s your vision board so it’s your choice whether you have one vision board, or
many. Whether it’s themed or focussed, plain or filled with glitter and feathers.
Detailed
This can be words and pictures. A student who wants to graduate well might
include a few pictures of gowns, graduate caps, someone giving a speech in a
gown, and also a sentence about what it will feel like to graduate, or some words
like success, complete, joy.
Journal
If you like to write, you can write a story of the vision. This journal contains a
page for each of the life wheel’s areas.
Theme
This type is included in this journal. It follows the themes of the life wheel. You
can create a vision board for each of the life wheel’s wedges.
It’s as easy as you want it to be.
This journal breaks the process down into easy building blocks:
1. Start where you are - look at the important areas of your life you'd like to
change
2. Know what your goals are - get clear so you can focus
3. Build your vision board or boards - who said you only need one?
4. Affirm what you want, every day - especially when you have a 'bad' day.
Your vision board will be finished for ‘now’. You can revisit it
as often you want to, to refresh your life’s picture.
Start where you are
The aim of a life wheel is to create a picture of the balance in your life.
For each category, rate how satisfied you are and color in that row. 10 means
"complete", 1 means "great place to start".
Would your wheel turn evenly? If not, that could be an area for you to focus your
vision board.

Build your vision board/s
You don't need anything fancy to build a vision board. But, if you love art materials
and craft supplies, use them. Make the board as basic or as bright as you want. You
can even create it using your computer and images you find online (for your personal
use only, of course).
Types of boards
a poster - post it where you'll see it often
digital - a digital photo collage in Word or similar program. Make it your computer
wallpaper!
a journal - like this one
What you need
a board - this can be a corkboard, poster board, a cut open packing box, or the
pages below. Don’t let needing the 'perfect' board stop you from starting.
scissors
tape or glue - stick, liquid, dots - whatever you have
markers, colouring pencils, paint if you like
stickers, if you like them
craft supplies to embellish, if you like them
magazines you can cut pictures and quotes from
photos, quotes, sayings - some are included in this journal
cards or postcards from friends, if that's an area you want to work
on
time - give yourself an hour or two so you can relax into the process and let all
your dreams surface
friends - why not include friends in a vision board

Affirm your vision
Your vision board is a picture of how you want your life to be. Put it where you’ll see
if often, to remind yourself of the new vision you are creating in your life. The key
word is ‘often’.
Where will you place your vision boards?
When will you look at your vision boards?
When will you review your vision boards?
Can you summarise your vision into a few sentences? Write them on
a post-it note and stick them in a few places.
