VISION BOARD
Vision Board
Evaluating our Values and Goals in Life
What do you want in life? And how are you going to make it happen? A vision board is a
collage of images, pictures and affirmations that represent your dreams and desires (aka
values and goals). Other names for a vision board include a dream board, treasure map or
vision map. Vision boards are a great way to make you feel positive, and are helpful if you
are using the law of attraction by keeping your goals and values in mind.
Step 1
Go through your magazines and tear the images from
them. Or go online and print out pictures you like that
help paint a picture of your values and goals.
Step 2
Go through the images and begin to lay your favorites on the board. This step
is where your intuition comes in. As you lay the pictures on the board, you’ll
get a sense how the board should be laid out. You might assign a theme to
each corner of the board. Physical Health, Personal Development, Emotional
Health, Career/Financial/Income, Experiences and Relationships, or it may
just be that the images want to go all over the place. Or you might want to
fold the board into a book that tells a story. Be wildly creative as you present
your vision board.
Step 3
Glue everything onto the
board. Add writing if you
want. You can paint on it, or
write words with markers.
Get creative!
Step 4
Hang your vision board in a
place where you will see it
often. Focus on it when you
see it. Visualize those goals
and values happening to you.
Rubric
As you complete this assignment, make sure to keep in
mind your values and goals.
