Achieving Your Dreams Through Positive Vision Board.
We all have dreams in our heads but we don't always manage to turn these dreams into reality. If you feel like you're not achieving your goals and not succeeding in carrying out the projects that are important to you, the personal development tool called a vision board can help you. We will explain why and how to create a positive vision board.
What is a positive visualization board?
A positive visualization board, also known as a vision board in English, is a personal development tool that will help you achieve your goals and realize your dreams.
As the name suggests, this support for reflection and motivation is primarily a visual reminder of what you really want to accomplish.
It takes the form of a frame, collage or wall of images that allows you to express your dreams and keep them in front of you to bring them to life.
Why make a vision board?
When it comes to expressing one's goals and dreams, there are several methods of personal development such as:
• creating wish lists
• writing
• keeping a bullet journal
• mentally visualizing the goal as if it has already been achieved...
What sets the creation of a positive vision board apart from these other methods is the tangible aspect of this project.
Making a vision board is for you if you prefer to create things with your hands rather than write or practice visualization during sophrology or self-hypnosis sessions.
The other advantage of this creative project is that you can keep the result in front of you until your goal is achieved and your dream realized.
For example, if you dream of discovering a distant destination like Japan or Costa Rica, you can use a vision board to maintain your motivation (through images and quotes related to that country), until you have raised the necessary budget to finance such a trip.
How to make a positive vision board?
To create a positive vision board, you have several options for materials:
• a large frame to hang above your desk
• a cork board to place on your desk or in another strategic area of your home
• a memo board with clips to hang photos and pieces of paper
• a large rigid cardboard on which you can draw, paint and/or create a collage of photos, with images cut out from magazines for example...
Whatever your preferred method and the material you choose, start by defining your objective well. This first step of introspection is essential for the success of your vision board.
Indeed, in order to select specific images to keep in front of your eyes, you must first clarify what you really desire. Take stock of your aspirations and goals for the coming months, then go ahead without fear!
The second step is to search for images in magazines or on the Internet to represent the dreams you want to achieve. On this board, you can put all the drawings, photos, and words that inspire you without any limits or censorship.
There is no wrong way to create this type of board. The most important thing is that the result pleases you and resembles you, so that you enjoy keeping it and especially looking at it often.
Does this method really work?
If you are skeptical about the effectiveness of a positive vision board, know that many self-help books report testimonials from people who have achieved their dreams this way.
Whether you believe in it or not, creating a vision board at least encourages you to reflect on your deepest aspirations and materialize them through images and words.
Once your board is ready, all you have to do is hang it in a place where you will see it every day, for example above your desk or bed! To make the magic work, it is said that you should look at it for a few minutes every day and absorb it.
If you already know what dream you would like to achieve, you have nothing to lose by trying this method that some claim works miracles...
