What is a Vision Board:

A Vision Board is a specific Law of Attraction Success Tool. It can be used as a powerful life transforming blueprint that guides you in achieving your goals and dreams, easily and quickly by reprogramming your powerful subconscious mind.  It is also known as a treasure map, dream board or goal board and provides you with long term sustainable results.  Vision boards became extremely popular after The Secret DVD featured John Assaraf's story about his vision board success.  John's story is about how he was living in his dream home and he didn't realize that he had bought the exact same house, that was on his goal / vision boards because the boards had been packed away in boxes for a few years.

How Do You Achieve Goals:

We all have desires, dreams and wishes, but until they become clearly defined goals, they may remain forever only as dreams and wishes.  Goal setting programs suggest “starting with the end in mind” and by giving you a visual sample of your “end result” your vision board will help you to manifest whatever you want in life.   A well designed vision board enables you to clearly see “your future” and allows your subconscious mind to get you there. Meanwhile your conscious mind has something tangible to focus on as you plan your action steps and forward direction.

How to Make a Vision Board:

Traditionally, a vision board or treasure map is a work of art, a collage of well chosen images, words and phrases arranged in a pleasing manner and glued to a poster board.  Your life is a “work of art” and you are the alchemist of your life!  Find a poster board in a color you like, choose happy photos of yourself and loved ones and lots of inspirational pictures from magazines about what YOU want in your life.  These pictures can be symbolic of your desired outcomes.  Next, arrange and paste these images and words onto the board and prepare to do some inner “mind power” activities and exercises to help you achieve your dreams and goals.  The map can be quite abstract; it just has to make sense to you and your SUB conscious mind.

How Does it Work:

This is where the magic begins because it activates the law of attraction. Have you ever set yourself a goal and got it?  How did you get that goal, was it hard work and frustration, a struggle, fighting with yourself about how to achieve what you wanted?

Did you have to plan every step of the way? Or did the universe just fall into place for you. Some people are lucky aren't they?  No! they just understand how to work the Universal Law of attraction. Once you commit your goals to paper, take action in the real world and apply some of the mind skills that I share, you will see, know and understand how to be in the right place at the right time to have what you want easily and effortlessly. The famous psychiatrist Carl Jung coined this experience as Synchronicity, where unrelated events  synchronize in time to become “meaningful co-incidences.”

How Long Will it take to See Results:

Some people experience the tipping point and see results immediately.  For others it takes a little longer. The time frames depend on how much time and effort and energy have been already invested into the goals and dreams that you are putting on your map. I cover this topic extensively in the Workshop - "Treasure Mapping your Way to Success" and during my private consultations with clients.

Can You Make Mistakes with a Vision Board:

There are quite a few funny stories about how certain images that are put on the boards bring about unexpected events. In one such instance a lady could not find the right color for a car she wanted, but decided to use the blue picture she had as a "stop gap." Yes, you guessed it, she ended up purchasing a blue vehicle because "it was such a great deal, too good to refuse."  the lady had intended to swap the blue picture over when she eventually found the right color, but after time she forgot about replacing the blue picture and then one day she saw and bought a great deal and the car just happened to be blue.  We laughed, after all it was a great purchase for her, just not what she had expected.

Where do I Put my Vision Board:

Once you have made your vision board or treasure map, put it where you can see it daily and enjoy looking at it.  Make sure you share it with only supportive people.

Why Create a Vision Board:

It is more than goal setting tool. I have found it gives and keeps on giving even greater rewards and treasures than could be imagined.  My Students and I have personally experienced fast goal manifestation with additional gifts and treasures much greater than we had imagined even possible! Enjoy creating your boards and the journey you embark on to living a life bigger and better than you may have imagined possible.
