My mother has told me since I was a child, “Thoughts are things.” So, I guess you could say I was fortunate enough to know “The Secret” before I knew it was a secret.
Now, at 31, I’m at a point in my life where I am on the edge of greatness. You might not know that, considering all that I am enduring right now. A sometimes-debilitating illness, job loss due to economic woes and the death of the newspaper business (I was the food and home editor at a major metro daily), etc…
But my blessings are here. My fingertips are on them. I can feel the sweet breath of greatness on my cheek… And knowing this can be maddening, frustrating, exciting and frightening, all at once. It is imperative that I channel my thoughts and my energy, leading myself to live the life I envision for myself.
And, to that end, I have created two new vision boards.
This collage technique is, quite simply, the Law of Attraction. It is a visual representation of whatever you want to be, have or do. I recommend this exercise to everyone because it is just that powerful. Thoughts are real, and creating these boards makes a tangible reminder of that and literally keeps your eyes on the prize. The result? Those things will be manifested in your life.
Here is my personal board, outlining the goals I have for my life with regard to my home, love, travel:
And here is my professional board, with the goals I have for my career:
Do you have a vision board? I’d love to know and celebrate the greatness you see in your future!
