Creating a Vision Board

Vision boards are really cool. They’re a great way to make your ambitions feel tangible, and they allow for creating clear goals and milestones to meet to reach that ambition or dream. Vision boards are a very common way to outline your goals and bring your dreams to life. If you haven’t ever made a vision board, it’s not too late! You can create vision boards for anything! Here’s a quick guide to get you started.


Find the Necessary Supplies 

• Foam or Cork poster boards
• Magazines
• Scissors
• Glue
• Paper

Find What You’re Interested In

• Creating your vision board comes from all sorts of magazine, book and online content that match your goals. Go through magazines and books and rip out pages, headlines, pictures, inspiring texts, etc that you like and that feel important to you. These items should express the things that you want to attract in your life. Create lists of things that you want to achieve throughout your milestones that you can check back to later to mark as accomplished. 

Organize 

• When you’ve found your items that you want to put together, separate them into different categories that will pertain to your check-ins to stay on track with your goals. Certain pictures and headlines you’ve cut out should go on your board to help refocus your goals. You can categorize your items in any sort of section you’d like; the most common board sections and areas usually pertain to personal, professional, health and wellness, and “big picture” dreams and ambitions. 

You Get Out of it What You Put Into It

• It’s YOUR vision board. It’s supposed to resonate with you. Vision boards are not only meant to be a creative way to help you bring your goals to life, but are also meant to be fun and enjoyable to make! 
• Your vision board is supposed to help you visually see what you want to achieve. It’s meant to be placed in a spot where you can be continually reminded of what you’re working towards. Use your boards as a personal nudge to stay on track on focusing on your dreams.
