A Dream Board is a visual picture of the dreams you have for your life that you want to come true. The concept is that we attract to us what we think. And if we put good things in front of us, those things we’ve always wanted, those things we’ve always thought about having in our lives, then we will attract what we think.
I’ve watched clients want something but not write it down and not visualize or affirm it. One said that his business wasn’t what he envisioned and he wanted that vision to become his reality. In other words if your vision is in your head, that’s not where it needs to be. It needs to be out in the world for all to see.
Some of my clients also use this concept to visualize their businesses, too! It’s their first business plan. One thing though…don’t “get stuck” on your dream boards. We all have plans for our future, however it’s important to watch the universe for signs of it’s plans for us. Otherwise we might miss out on some great opportunities!
Purchase a large piece of paper such as “oak tag” or “poster board” in whatever color you like!
You now have the beginnings of your Dream Board.
In the center of your board put a picture of you that you really enjoy viewing.
Whatever your dreams, goals, etc., start cutting out pictures that symbolize your dreams and paste them on your board.
Or draw the pictures. Can’t draw perfectly? Draw it anyway! (If I can, you can.)
Put captions under the pictures.
What are some of your dreams? Remember to include all areas of your life on your board… Career/Business, Relationships (self-others), Money, Recreation/Play, Health/Well Being.. Get specific…. real specific and descriptive!
Go for it!! Enjoy it!! Have fun with it!!
Tack it on the wall.
As your dreams continue to grow (or change), keep adding to it.
Make it the first thing you view in the morning and last thing you view at the end of your working day.
