A Vision Board is a tool that refers to any sort of visualization of your greatest goals and dreams that you wish to achieve.
By creating a Vision Board, you can understand your goals and start implementing plans to reach for the stars.
“Your brain will work tirelessly to achieve the statements you give your subconscious mind. And when those statements are the affirmations and images of your goals, you are destined to achieve them!” (Jack Canfield)
Representing your goals with the images that you desire, stimulates your motivation to continue to drive your efforts and actions towards reaching your goal.
Interestingly, the Law of Attraction comes into effect when you put this out into the universe and success rates move from visualization into reality.
How Do I Use a Vision Board?
Looking at the board daily keeps your vision fresh in your mind and eliminates the likelihood of forgetting to keep your goals in the headlights.
Either by keeping your Vision Board in your office, your bedroom, or even in the bathroom; keep it somewhere that will spark your inspiration daily to continue to grind for the aspirations.
The key to using your Vision Board is to always maintain a focused mindset and to never sway out of it. Consistence in your ambition will lead to success in the areas of life when you apply your drive to it.
You might want to have a few different vision boards for separate areas of your life such as personal, career, and financial boards.
By breaking up the boards into different areas you can separate the diverse areas of your life and begin to focus on multiple goals at once.
How do I start?
Step One: Create a list of goals
Before jumping straight into creating your board, you must first understand the goals you have in place for yourself.
By taking some time to reflect on your personal goals, write them down and categorize them into what you can do within the next year.
The list of goals will help you recognize what you value the most in your life and you can begin to think about the steps it will take to achieve them.
Step Two: Gather pictures that align with your goals and inspire you
After understanding your goals, you can find pictures that represent the same goals and ideas you have in your mind.
Either online or by looking through some old magazines you have gathered in your home, find pictures that represent your ambitions.
Don’t worry if the pictures are not perfectly aligned with what you want. If you desire to find true love one day, it does not have to be a picture of your dream man/woman: it can be as simple as two people holding hands. This board is for you and if you understand what the pictures represent, that is all that matters.
Step Three: Place your photos into different Categories
Using a Cork board or a large sheet of paper, you can glue or tape the pictures on the board and decorate it in a visually pleasing manner.
Make sure to make it visually appealing to you so that you feel pride in looking at your project and want to look at it daily
Now that you have pictures and ideas of your goals, break them up into the categories listed below.
Prosperity
Aspiration
Time Management
Family
Motivators
Goals
Skills/Knowledge
Career/Life Path

Step Four: Place Affirmation words and motivational phrases on your Vision Board
Affirmation words are positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-doubt and negative thoughts. When you repeat them often, and believe in them, you can start to make positive changes.
Motivational phrases will inspire you to go into each day hungry to succeed on your journey to reaching the goals you have set.
Together, these will begin your days with positivity and determination, all the while keeping your mind set on the path to success.
Some examples of Affirmation words:
I know, accept and am true to myself.
I believe in, trust, and have confidence in myself.
I eat well, exercise regularly and get plenty of rest to enjoy good health.
I learn from my mistakes.
I know I can accomplish anything I set my mind to.
I forgive myself for not being perfect because I know I’m human.
I never give up.
I accept what I cannot change.
Some examples of motivational phrases:
“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop” (Confucius)
“Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me” (Carol Burnett)
“Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough” (Og Mandino)
Step Five: Take moments out of your day to reflect on your Vision and goals
We all have the same amount of time in our days, so you must make time to step outside of the daily routine and reflect on what you are working towards.
Whether it is first thing in the morning, over breaks at work, or at night before bed, take a moment or moments to look over your Vision Board and keep your head leveled.
Self-reflection pays dividends to those who truly understand themselves and their mission in life. You are just a few steps away from heading on the path to success.

Use Canva to create a digital Vision Board
We used a tool called Canva. This costs roughly $12.95 per month, but there are so many uses for this easy to use graphics tool. In fact, our LoveJoy Hormone Clinic 2020 Vision Board was created in less than 15 minutes using Canva. Keep in mind, none of us at LoveJoy Clinic are trained graphic artists, yet most of the graphics that you see in our e-mails, paperwork, and logos were created with Canva.
