Project Mary 2.0
As I mentioned in the Jupiter Retrograde blog, a Digital Vision Board can help you visualize and structure a plan for your goals. I had done a bunch of research on how to do a Digital Vision Board on Pinterest and I am inspired. You don’t necessarily have to use Pinterest - you can create it on free apps like Canva, a Google Doc or even Pixabay. Whatever you use, make sure it’s easy and fun for you.
Listen, I like the magazine, scissors and glue on cardboard idea from back in the day. But no matter where I am, when using Pinterest I can save a photo, quote or idea to my board with a few clicks on the screen.
Here’s the positives - you can grow your board to as large as you want for motivation, inspiration and tips to reach those goals. By looking at motivation often - daily, in fact, signals to your brain what you’re doing and then you will see the ways to get there even more.
You won’t have the instant board to hang in your hands, though. You’ll have to download it to your computer screen or print it out, but, a few extra steps to create the life you want? Not so bad, right?
I recently created a fitness board that has motivation quotes, recipes and looks that I want to obtain. It was a lot of fun to create - “oooo...I like those arms!” and “what about that bootie? I can obtain that!” I shared it with my friend/trainer and now it’s grown with things she finds too. It’s a project that focuses on my goals and isn’t hard to create because visualizing the future is exciting. The visuals expand my thoughts on what I could accomplish and what it can look like - why not use it to think bigger?
This is also a tool I use with my coaching clients. We build the board together into what the goal is and how to obtain it. It creates the framework for the future and can be updates as the mini-goals are reached. It’s better than a traditional list!
Try out the Digital Vision Board and let me know how it goes!
