My Vision Board:
I have wanted to make a vision board ever since my hairdresser told me about it a couple years ago. If you read my recent blog post, I wrote about how I wanted to create a vision board. Well, I did it. A photo of the final product is shown above. The process was really easy; I found photographs and quotes in magazines that inspired me and I cut them out. Then I made a collage of them on a frame. As I have a crafty side, I thought this was a really cool way to display my goals for the next ten years.

Let me explain my goals to you (or as I say on board dreams):
-
Most of all, since I just graduated I want to keep dreaming and pursue my passion. I want my life to be one big adventure.
-
I want to be a leader through empowering students, athletes, and indivduals to go after their dreams, know that they have a community there to support them and to not give up despite all the unfortunate circumstances that will likely arise in their lives.
-
I want to start my career that combines education and sport.
-
I need to live near the ocean/lake/river. The water is my source of strength.
-
I want to learn how to play the guitar, be a better photographer, become a surfer, and write for a magazine.
-
I want to go travel more with my friends: as seeing new places and faces makes me happy.
Most importantly, I need to remember to never stop smiling or to stop being myself. So that is what vision board consists of.
In addition to having a vision board, I also created a Life List.
My Life List:
The process of writing out my specific goals gave me order, less clutter, and regained focus in my life. They are all things that I have been saying I would like to do for a long time and will help me achieve my goal of empowering others through being my authentic self. Here is my list.

If you were to create a lifelist, what would you write on there? Have you created one already, I’d love to see it.

Beautiful board. You’ve inspired me to finish my own
Wonderful. Sometimes we need reminders of our dreams. A vision board seems like a great way to do that!
I have a bucket list on my blog.
They are good to have! It is great to have goals. I will check it out
Such a cool idea. I thought I’d commented on this before but guess my thoughts never made it to…paper? Hmm…screen? We’ll go with that. I especially liked how “spa vacation” can be found right next to “marriage.”
Deanne, you should try making one, its fun! Yeah, haha it is funny how that ended up
Your vision board is beautiful!!
Thanks! It was so much fun to make. Have you ever made one?
No, but I do have my tumblr account. http://www.alwayssparkle.tumblr.com That’s pretty much my vision board. All the things that inspire me, quotes I love, etc.
