I used to use a process; I’m sure you’ve heard it before. It was called a Dream Board.
I’m changing the name.
My Dream Board is now a Vision Board.
Why am I changing the name? Why am I changing my process that’s been working?
Because it is my belief, it is my INTENTION that this process work better--work faster.
I was watching The Secret. (Have you watched it yet?)
My son was watching it with me for just a moment. He heard about making lists. He wanted me to help him write his list. He’s 5.
So he could be a more active part of making his lists, he’s starting his Vision Board. I’ve started a new Vision Board too.
For those of you who are not sure what I’m talking about, here are detailed instructions for you.
1. Get some poster board or a cork board. If using the poster board, you can get your favorite color. You can get a color that represents something for you. My favorite color is purple. A very rich color. ;-) Green is the color of money. You get the idea.
2. Fill up this board with pictures or thoughts of things you desire. I have a Million Dollar Bill I got from a workshop. That’s going on it first. Then a picture of the beach on Maui.
3. Put up your Vision Board in a place where you’ll see it every single day. I’m putting mine in my room. That way I see it every morning when I wake up. I see it every night.
4. Spent 5-10 minutes every day seeing and feeling you having those things on your vision board. What is it like? How do you feel? What’s fun about it?
5. Stop. Once you’re done visioning, move about your day. 2 hours of visioning is NOT more powerful than 5-10 minutes of visioning. This is much like homeopathy. Less is more. (Not none is more, or more is more, but less is more.) There is more power in 5-10 minutes of intense, pure vision.
So why am I changing the name of this process from Dream Board to Vision Board? Dreams are just that--Dreams. Vision is real. I want my intentions to be real, not dreams.
If you want your intentions to be real, you may want to create your Vision Board today. And when you do, make sure you include all 5 steps. They are each important. It’s like your car operating on one less cylinder. It looses power.
Are you ready to move from Dreaming to Visioning?
Create your Vision Board. You are what you think. You are what you see.

I've found the coolest and most effective tool to help with the visualization process - a great vision board software called Mind Movies Creator.
It was created by Ryan Higgins to help others visualize and manifest the life of their dreams. See a video and find out why here http://www.squidoo.com/vision-board-software
A Mind Movie allows you to create a vision of what you want, together with your Favorite song… the one that makes you feel good, the one that makes you want to dance, the one that makes you smile and sing along.
It’s like a 3 minute slide show/movie of your perfect life.
I’m trying it out now.
I’m having fun making my own vision board/mind movie.
And because it’s a software, no need to cut up magazines!
Thanks.
Eric
