Day 6 of the 12 Days of Joy

Get Ready for a Brilliant and Fabulous New Decade

We are still a few weeks away from 2020, a new year and a new decade. You probably still have Christmas and the 2019 Holiday Season on your mind, but the new year is almost here and what a grand time to set intentions and visualize not only what you want to do in 2020 but you are starting a brand new decade, too. A fresh perspective is energizing.

How to Create a Vision Board

We are visual people. When you make your goals and dreams come alive with images, your mind loves it. When you “see” it, you tend to believe it. When you believe it, you achieve it. Using the time between Christmas and New Year’s Day to create a vision board, will help you start your new year with passion and excitement. You could even host a vision board party for your friends. Consider making a vision board for 2020 and one for the next ten years. Ten-year planning is valuable because it is so far out that you tend to think much bigger and let your imagination run wild.

Steps to creating a vision board.

• Planning. When you set your goals for your life, you will know what you want to include on your vision board. (Use this planning sheet to give you structure). You also will love this article on effective planning.
• Color. Put thought into the color of your poster board. Yellow/Gold, Red, and Green are great prosperity. White is also very clean and open. You can also research the meaning of colors to help you choose.
• Style. Though most people choose a poster board, you could create a digital board using Canva. You could also choose to use a bulletin board, a photo book, or a Pinterest secret board.
• Freedom. Your vision board is deeply personal. Make sure you choose images and words that are meaningful to you and important to you. You are free to dream your biggest dreams when you create your vision board.
• Your one word, What word is the essence of what you want to accomplish in 2020. For example, people have used words like trust, manifest, wealth, expansion, health, love, etc.
• Plan for what you really want
• Plan for all areas of your life
• Plan for the new habits you want.
• Pillars. A pillar is a main area of your life (work, biz, relationships, money, health, wellness, education, spirituality, etc). You will want to include all of the most important pillars on your board.
• Gather supplies. When you are ready, gather your supplies. Your board, images (magazine, digital, photos, etc), glue, tape, scissors, markers, crayons, colored pencils and more?
• Just start. You don’t have to create your board in one sitting. You may want to have a vision board party and create yours with friends or colleagues. This is also a terrific family activity.
• Keep it private. Keep your board in a place where you will see it frequently. Your goals should be held close. However, if you are in a close group like a mastermind or other professional group, feel free to share your board in this environment. Let others see you achieve your goals.

You can increase your success this year with affirmations as well.

Once you create your board, use affirmations for items on your board. Some people like to write them on their board, too.

Tips for successful affirmations:

Use I am…

Write in present tense like you have it now or past tense like you did it already.

Words like I love… I decided…I choose…I am in the process of…

Focus on the positive, for example, if you want to be out of debt. Say instead- paid in full with extra money in the bank.
