Did you ever make collages when you were younger?
Well, break out your glue sticks and old magazine friends, because today we are talking about creating a vision board for your business!
What exactly is a vision board? I'm glad you asked!
A vision board is sometimes referred to as a dream board. And while it is something beautiful to look at it is less about the pretty images and more about visualizing your goals and giving your mind a tangible representation of your ideal life!
First off begin by asking yourself some questions;
- What do you want your life to look like in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years?
- What does success look like to you? A bigger house, nicer car, more vacations, working fewer hours?
- What words represent how you will feel once you achieve your goals?
- What do you think of when you think of your ideal life?
Feeling stuck? Ask yourself “Why?” Why do you want to own your own business? Knowing your “why” is fundamental when it comes to a business plan, your financials, client base, etc.
Next, choose images that represent those goals to you! Remember, this is your vision board! It doesn't have to make sense to anyone else but you. Find images that inspire you along with words! Cut, glue, and layer! Can’t find a picture that represents what you want? Turn to the internet! You could also grab your iPhone and take your own inspiring image or even draw it!
Finally, hang your work of art where you will see it every day!
Have you created a vision board before?

Rooting for you,
