So many times when I’m on the phone with my clients, talking with friends or making new ones, the concept of desire comes up. It’s so easy to know what you want from an analytical standpoint. That is really valuable.
But more than that, I want to know how do you want to feel and will you be ready for it when it shows up?
The perfect way I’ve found, especially if you’re a visual person like me, is to use photos to capture the feeling of what you want to create. It gives you a visual to focus on and helps you tap into those feelings that anchor you to take action.
I know we’ve all heard about vision boards and manifesting, this is slightly different. I think movies like The Secret only got it half right. Vision boards are only half of the process, the other piece is connecting with the reason you want to have or experience ‘the thing’ and then look at what action you’ll need to take to move you closer to it.
The real purpose of the vision board is to allow you to tap into these desires and give you a jumpstart on what you’re ‘calling in’. Make sense?
You can’t possibly know where you’re headed without a bigger why - a passion, a gut feeling, a deeper purpose, a dream – and that all happens when you tap into the deeper facets of creating a lifestyle that fits your unique dreams. You’re not a one-size-fits-all barbie and your dreams shouldn’t feel fake like that either.
To get you started, one of my absolute favorite tools to begin feeling into your vision is using Pinterest. Photos enhance our feelings so the more aligned they are with what you want to create the better you’ll feel and the more you’ll attract. But don’t forget to take that aligned action to ensure you are headed in the right direction!
Remember, like anything this is a process so take it one step at a time and be gentle with yourself. Explore and create so you can expand in the ways you are meant to. And above all else have fun with the process! Once your boards are created make sure to print them out, add them as your desktop background or showcase them somewhere you’ll get to see them and feel the benefits often and feel inspired to take those baby steps toward your dreams.
Your dreams are there for a reason. Listen to them. Cultivate them. Shine love and positivity on them and watch ‘em grow.
