Creating a Vision Board
For the past few months, I have been flipping through my stash of old magazines, collecting words, phrases, quotes, and pictures that inspire and make me smile.
Looking back on the process, I learned a lot about myself from what I both chose to include and chose not to include.
Here are some things I learned about myself:
- I value creativity and discovery in myself and my family.
- If you gave me $100, I’d probably spend it on organizational tools for my home, plants for my garden, or All-Clad pots (Umm . . . only $100? Maybe a ladle).
- If I could only do one thing today, I’d have family tickle time. It’s raw fun and laughter at its best.
- While I live in an area that’s fast-paced, I’d rather take the slow road.
- I’m a work in progress. Someday I’ll be organized (See organizational tools above).
- If I knew that I couldn’t fail, I would write a book or plant fields of lilacs.
- I daydream about having my own creative sanctuary (aka home office) with sunlight streaming through the windows.
- I believe that we all have the power to make a positive impact on our world, no matter how great or small.
- I’m attracted to “B” words like breathe, being, believe, bloom.
Okay, enough analyzing.
If someone asked you to create a poster that shows who you are and what you want for your life, could you do it? What words, phrases, or quotes would you include? What pictures?
