Vision or Dream Boards

Do you know or have you heard about vision boards? Do you know anyone that uses them?

I have completed two of my vision board goals and am working on completing another. 

The purpose of a vision board is to give you a visual picture of what you want in your life. It is like an open scrap book that you can see all the time. Do you want to go on a cruise, see Italy, buy new dishes, new clothes, a new car, want more money, a bigger office, to visit a day spa as often as you wish, to travel and see the world, to learn how to cook like a chef, a new lawn mower, repair your sewing machine…you see it does not matter, because it is your vision, it is about you. 

I had placed three items on my vision board one was a cruise, now completed; one was a home for me, completed; one is getting my sewing machine fixed, in the process. Want a college degree, put a cap & gown on your board, want that new car, find a picture, print it out and glue/tape it to your board.  It is not about the length of time for the action it is about seeing it everyday, believing that you will achieve this goal and turn your life around for the good. 

          A vision board is a place where you can put 
your dreams of achievement.

This is just one of the many tools that I have used to get where I am today. Belief in yourself will take you a very long way.  

Do you have a deep desire to take back control of your life? 

Do your own research on vision boards or dream boards, seek out pictures to print, type of words that have meaning for you, make them big, bold, colorful, creative paste/tape them to a construction board, search through magazines. 

I use words like Achievement, success, happiness, courage, faith, freedom, smile, worthy, healthy, are just a few of the words I have chosen. 

As you conquer one goal take it down and replace it with another. Keep your board, fresh, moving and alive.  

Here are a couple of quotes from leaders:

“Envisioning means quite literally making something up out of thin air-and making it real. By definition, you can't do that within the confines of your skull. It needs to become physical; it needs to involve your senses. In other words, you need to write it down. Making pictures of it, which people sometimes call a “dream board,” is even better. Speaking it out loud is the most powerful of all. But at the very least, write it down. The moment you do, it has started to become real”

- Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge

“Set aside time each and every day to visualize every one of y our goals as already complete. This is one of the most vital things you can do to make your dreams come true. Some psychologists are now claiming that one hour of visualization is worth 7 hours of physical effort. That's a tall claim, but it makes an important point - visualization is one of the strongest tools in your success toolbox. Make sure you use it.”

- Jack Canfield, The Success Principles

By creating your vision board and visualizing your future, you can ultimately create the life of your dreams!  

        

Dream, Believe, Achieve and become…you can do it

New Dimensions

What is your Focus? Does it define you?

Well here it is Tuesday, July 12, 2011 and I am reading yet again another book. 

Now this is not the first time I have heard this and I am very sure you have heard the same. “What you think about you bring about.”

Now what does that mean to you?  Please take some time, and really look at what you think about….

For me as I continue on my new journey, I have been changing my thoughts from deep down negative to a more positive approach. I am surrounding my self with a more positive atmosphere with the people I hang around. I am eliminating the negative in my life, one day at a time, one person at a time. 

And guess what; it is working. 

They say that if you hang out with the people that have what you want you will achieve what your heart desires. But it is so much more then that. 

Have you heard the saying “Let go and Let God”? How about; “When the student is ready the teacher will appear”? 

Yesterday on a training call, my friend Sarah Thompson was talking about being negative. This wonderful lady as gone from total financial devastation, losing her home and pretty much everything she owns, having major heart attacks, bleeding out internally, literally dying all the while staying surrounded with positive people who supported her, came to her aid, helped her to heal and she is the most uplifting, positive, heart felt, intelligent person I know. 

Can you imagine yourself having that kind of inspiration to offer to others? Difficult to imagine isn’t it?

Now how do I know Sarah? Sarah is my direct sponsor; she is the person who I contacted through the Success in 10 Steps e-book.   

                

If you are looking for leadership, training, support, guidance, someone to talk too, friendships to develop, let me know. I can point you in the direction you are seeking. Let me show you how you can learn to inspire others…..

Oh, by the way, what book am I reading now….The Room, by James L. Rubart….purchased through Crossings Book club, I hope you buy and enjoy it. 

Also reading…. Developing a Successful Mindset….written by White Dove Books.

Your friend,

Carol Scheid
