Vision board, how to design it correctly and does it really work?

How to make a vision board to achieve your dreams and goals. Let's find out how to make it and activate it correctly.

This most powerful tool for self-development and self-programming is also, in fact, a collage of photos . But it is magical, as it helps many people achieve their goals and make their dreams come true. A vision board is also called a dream map, a school board, or even a treasure map (after all, it is on it that you store all your most secret dreams and desires).

Why do you need visualization of desires?

Probably, there is no need to explain to anyone what a vision vision board is. The process of compiling it is fascinating: you take a stack of magazines, leaf through them and find pictures with your desires. These are not necessarily material things, such as a car or a house by the sea.

Often these are desires of this kind, such as family, happy couples, a smiling child and getting rid of loneliness. At the beginning of composition, the board is a piece of blank Whatman paper. In the middle of the vision board, which is also called a card, you must paste your photo, around which the desired pictures will be located.

Don’t rush to add a lot of small desires, but focus on what you really need. The map can be roughly divided into sectors in which desires will be arranged thematically. These are the basic human needs that are needed for happiness: good health, a beautiful figure, happiness in the family, career success. All your cherished dreams can fit on a vision board. How to make your dreams come true? First of all, you need to activate your wish card.

Own design

You will have to tinker with the board noticeably more if you do not use ready-made solutions, but come up with everything completely on your own. But the board will be unique, and you can:

• adjust the size and shape of images to highlight more significant targets,
• choose custom fonts and background for the board,
• add stickers, emoticons, decorations if you want.

This is where graphics programs come into play. And this will require special skills. But don't worry, there is a way to make a unique board even if you are not a designer at all. For example, Canva. This is a resource that contains various templates. You can take any of them and remake them for yourself, adding your own photos, but maintaining the style. And it will turn out to be a very interesting board. Here is an example of templates for the wish board request.

Cute, huh? Try it and you will see that making your own unique board is not so difficult.

Now let’s look at how to make a real board, not an electronic one.

Vision Board of Desires

It has long been proven that if a person really sincerely wants something, then his wish will always come true. When it comes to making a dream come true, concepts such as “luck” and “magic” do not count and even the location of the stars is not taken into account.

The most cherished desires are fulfilled only because we constantly think about it, visualize them, concentrating all our attention on specific goals. This contributes to the development of strong motivation, and then we make every effort to realize our dreams.

But our thoughts constantly wander, so we need specific tools that can keep them in the right direction. One of the most popular and effective is the Wish Board (Vision Board, Dream Collage, Wish Card, Treasure Map, etc.).

How to set goals? Preparation

Each speaker talks about his own method of preparation:

✔ Take a meditation

✔ Deal with feelings

✔ Get enough sleep, etc.

The main thing is to enter a calm, resourceful state.

Personally, I have always found silence and being alone for a few hours for a couple of days to be productively introspective. But, if this is not enough for you, try first to find your resource state.

So, preparation.

1. Be in a resourceful state.

2. Prepare a list of areas and a schedule of results from the previous year.

3. Assess your level of workload and free time (preferably in hours).

I. Everyone has their own resource, below are several options that may suit you:

1. Stay alone for a day.

2. Go out of town.

3. Take an aroma bath, go to the SPA.

4. Recharge after meeting with friends/family/children/colleagues, etc.

5. Sit down for Goals after a vacation or trip.

6. Go to your favorite cafe.

7. Visit places you haven’t been before.

8. Leave the children with their grandmother for a day.

9. Delegate everyday life to your spouse.

10. Satisfy basic physiological needs.

11. Make a list of all the feelings you want to experience in 2021.

12. Turn off the phone, etc.

If you feel like you can’t create and plan today, don’t overstep yourself. Try later. Perhaps today is not that day.

II. List of spheres.

Usually, when working with the Wish Board, it is customary to describe 9 spheres. Somehow it turned out that I like to split some spheres into components and usually end up with more. Below I have written my list of areas, and you choose the option that is closer to you.

III. Assess your load level

1. Count how many hours a week you sleep.

2. How many hours does it take to work and perform your duties?

3. And answer the question - How much time per week are you willing to devote to your New Goals? It is naive and stupid to set 100 Goals a year when there is not enough strength and energy for it.

How does the Vision Board work?

For the Visualization Board of Desires, a wooden board, whatman paper, or ordinary cardboard is most often chosen. A person who wants something attaches various photographs and pictures to it, under which he writes a description.

All images should visualize the dream, constantly reminding you of it. Scientists and psychologists have studied this issue and have long proven that writing goals on paper contributes to their rapid implementation.

The Wish Board operates in the same way, helping the owner not to forget his goals and concentrate his energy on their implementation. Before you start making it, it is important to understand how it works.

If you think that after staring at the Board around the clock, a miracle will suddenly come to you, then you are greatly mistaken. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. No magic, magical genie or Golden Fish will appear in front of you.

Just don't give up right away. Vision boards truly make dreams come true!

Here's how it happens:

• First of all, creating a Vision Board helps organize your wandering thoughts into specific goals. For example, you dream of big income. But “big” is how much in monetary terms? After all, a tidy sum is a rather loose concept. For some, 200 dollars is enough, but for others, even a million is not enough. When goals mature, abstraction fades into the background and everything becomes concrete.
• You will finally get the concrete visual image of your dreams. Very few people are capable of visually transforming their blurred dreams into vivid images.

But we receive a significant part of information from the outside world through our eyes in the form of pictures. In this case, the images seem to program our brain.

Now, with the help of the Wish Board, you will understand not only what you want to get, but also what exactly it looks like. Your result will depend on how accurately the pictures reflect your desires.

For example, you dream of a car. Then you should know exactly what brand it is, what color it is, engine size, price, interior, etc. You can even imagine the noise from a roaring engine.

• The Vision Board will begin to bear fruit for you if you treat it not as ordinary contemplation or meditation, but as a clear plan of action.

Psychologists have statistics that confirm that people who write their goals on paper achieve them within 1-2 years. For others, it sometimes takes entire decades.

• It is important to understand that the Vision Board is just a way to remind yourself of what you are striving for. But you will have to find a way to achieve it yourself. A miracle will not knock on your door while you are warming up on the sofa.

All skeptics can move on, because the Board helps only those who believe that desires can be visualized. The Vision Board helps bring dreams into reality. During the period of eye contact, the owner of the Board increases his energy significantly and directs it towards the desired goals.

Why does it work

A vision board is not a magical tool, it’s all about visualization. When a person carefully thinks through the pictures, pastes them and puts them together on a board, he concentrates on the values ​​that are important to him. And attention visually responds with signals to the brain, which perceives the picture as reality.

The effectiveness of this method is ensured by the following factors:

✔ Simplicity of technology;

✔ Analysis and reflection;

✔ Mental dialogue with yourself;

✔ Neurophysiological basis;

How to make a Vision Board correctly

First, you need to prepare a base for the Board (that is, cardboard, whatman paper, etc.), glue (adhesive tape), any images, scissors and time. In principle, even a wooden board will be suitable for the base.

You can now buy a special cork board in stores. Thanks to it you can create a real work of art. You choose the size of your board yourself based on the number of desires, although many believe that the larger, the more effective it is.

Before you begin, remember that your photo should be placed in the very center of the card. It's best if you smile and radiate happiness in the photo. And you should definitely like it. This image will become the important core around which the rest of the pictures will accumulate, reflecting all the desires.

Such images can be taken from various sources: magazines, newspapers, you can also search for them on the Internet and print them.

The Board works best if your central photo is of you standing next to your dream. For example, if you are dreaming of a luxurious home, then take a walk in a wealthy area and take your photo on the house you like. The same image can be drawn or, if you have the skill, made in Photoshop.

Many people immediately make the mistake of covering the board with as many pictures as possible. The abundance of photographs contributes to the dispersion of your energy on insignificant things.

All pictures must be signed as if these things or places already belong to you. Sentences must be written in the present tense. For example: “my car”, “my mansion”, “I’m in the Maldives”, etc.

Very important! Your dreams should be yours, and not the beliefs and desires of your relatives, parents, friends, acquaintances, or imposed by advertising in the media. To do this, you should first check your desire for truth.

If you follow absolutely all the rules for creating a Wish Board, then you should know that for greater effectiveness it should be done on the waxing moon, or during the new moon.

The first days of the new year or your birthday are also perfect. The main thing is, do not sit down to create a Wish Board in a bad or depressed mood. Also, the days of solar and lunar eclipses will not bring happiness.

If you don’t want to create a Board using traditional methods or don’t have the materials, then use online services. With their help, you can not only make a bright collage, but also save your Vision Board on the website.

Where to place it?

Many people are interested in the question - what is the best place to store the card so that it works?

The map works best in the place where you are most often, that is, in your constant field of vision. It is important to remember that it is better to store the card away from prying eyes. The ideal place for it is the bedroom, where there is no one except you, your spouse who supports you in this and the children. You can place it opposite the bed or in any other part of the room.

If you need to hide the punishment from prying eyes, you can hang it in the dressing room, in the wardrobe on the inside. Every time you look at her and the images associated with small and large dreams, you need to sincerely admire her and thank her for her work.

Feng Shui Wish Board

This Vision Board combines both your desires and Chinese technology. The ancient sages understood perfectly well that the thoughts we came up with and supported by energy always come true. If in the usual version you arrange the pictures in random order, then it is important to know about the existence of sectors responsible for each spectrum of life. They all have their specific places.

To create a Board, take a base. When you choose a material, think about its size, considering that a total of 9 identical sectors should fit. The best ratio is considered to be a square surface with a side length of 68 cm.

It is best to create a Feng Shui Wish Board with your own hands, without using computer programs. The fact is that in this case you transfer your energy to the object and increase the results.

Visualization can be supported by special rituals (to attract money and fulfill desires), which are best performed on the first day of the lunar calendar or on special favorable dates according to the Feng Shui calendar.

If possible, take advantage of the ideal date - the first day of the Chinese New Year. In 2015, for example, it was February 19.

How to set goals? Progress

1. We dream.

Usually I take blank A4 sheets and write down in a row everything that I would like to implement in each area. A continuous stream of thought, without looking back, to the maximum and “without brakes.” The task is to pour everything onto paper so that the imagination begins to work.

AT THIS MOMENT I RECOMMEND BEING ALONE.

Don't limit yourself in time - write everything that comes out!

2. Select the most important from the list and sort by area.

Now try to sort everything that you have written into 9 main areas and highlight the MOST IMPORTANT POINTS.

What are you going for this year? Everyone has their own number of Goals:

• 10 most important
• Another 20 pieces parallel
• Maybe several small ones (100 is a lot)

There is no specific number. Everyone has their own balance. The main thing is how you place the accents.

3. We specify and sort everything into areas.

Your dream is what fills you, inspires and inspires you. We need a Goal. The goal is a digital step towards the Dream.

3 main rules for building a Goal:

1. The whole secret is in the most specific formulation.

2. The goal is always digitized.

3. The goal is set on your own behalf, for yourself and contains only your true intentions.

The board is information only about you and your plans. There should be no foreign names, violent actions or restrictions on the Universe.

When you reveal all your desires to the world, the world itself decides how to fulfill them!

All Goals in perfect form!

Examples of incorrect and correct formulations of the Goal

Important! How to check that the Goal is correct?

1. A real goal gives adrenaline and excitement! Yes, she can be a little worried. But it feels like a game - you want to hold on and win!

2. The goal is always to go beyond your comfort zone.

3. Does not have clear steps, but only clear intermediate stages. If your Goal is absolutely clear, then it is not a Goal, but a plan. Be more ambitious, take risks!

4. Your Goal does not lead you into a stupor or panic, it only spurs and motivates you. If the fear of your Goal paralyzes you, make it a little smaller. Perhaps you have set yourself goals that are currently unattainable.

5. The goal is always a reflection of the Dream. A step towards your Dream.

WHEN YOUR LIST OF GOALS IS READY AND YOU READ IT, A WARM FEELING ALWAYS DEVELOPES INSIDE. DANGEROUS, BOLD, BUT ACHIEVABLE.

Important! Yes, your Goal does need to be eco-friendly to be achievable. Goals that are not environmentally friendly or that go against the values ​​of your family will not lead to good or simply will not be realized. For the most stubborn, such Goals destroyed marriages. So be careful.

Important! Each final goal must be felt, it must resonate with you and your inner state.

4. Select visualization.

Real pictures should appear here for each area of ​​life (except for the real person in the “Love” column, if you are not together yet). Pictures can be found on the Internet, but I use the Pinterest application.

Each picture you choose for your vision board should be “charged” - after looking at it, you should experience an unbridled desire to achieve/receive/have/possess/want/enjoy it with every fiber of your soul!

Since this stage and design can be the most difficult and is delayed for a long time, as a sample at the end of the article you can download a selection of photographs and pictures for each area. You can be inspired by them and even use them. But, I assure you, the effect will be much greater when you find them yourself. That's the point.

Important! The photographs should not contain the faces of other people (except children, husband, if you have them). Use Photoshop or cut and paste your face on top of the pictures.

Important! Do not leave any free space on the Board field. If there is any left, fill it with pieces of paper with text, affirmations, banknotes, or better yet, add visualization to one Goal.

Important! Pictures for the vision board should be colorful, high-quality, not wrinkled, and fresh.

5. Arm yourself with scissors and glue.

The board is filled in strictly clockwise. First we fill the center (yellow sector). It must contain your photo.

Important! Use a recent photo that is less than six months old.

Next, we begin to glue selected pictures, photos, or draw in each sector what we are striving for this year.

6. Magic spell.

And the last step. On the back of the Board, write the phrase - “Let all of this or more come into my life in the most harmonious, comfortable and safe way, bringing only good things to me and everyone concerned.”

7. Your finished vision board needs to be hung.

Preferably in the Southeast or East of your home. If you want to delve deeper into Feng Shui, then your Gua number will help you hang it correctly (the Internet will help you calculate it).

Important! If you are not sure that your loved ones or people who will see this Board will support you, if you are afraid of discussion or negativity in its direction, hang it in some secluded place. But you have to see it, come across it throughout the day/week and be constantly charged.

8. If there is last year's Vision Board.

It is believed that the old needs to be gotten rid of. New Year - New plans.

You definitely need to thank the Universe for the past year. And then you can burn, tear, or simply throw away last year’s version in a black bag.

Creating a Feng Shui Wish Board

As written above, divide your base into 9 equal parts-sectors. Although, if your material is rectangular in shape, then there is nothing to worry about. Place your favorite photo again in the very center.

Here you have to be even more responsible. The image should radiate positive energy. Also exclude photos from times when you had problems or were sick.

Next, taking into account the cardinal directions, you need to arrange the 8 life aspirations of Ba Gua. Remember that this map is different from a geographic map. You just need to turn everything upside down. Where there was north is now south, etc.

Each sector has its own color and characteristics:

1. Center – health (yellow).

It is in this section of the map that your photo will appear. If you dream of changing external data (for example, weight), then you can use Photoshop and simply reduce your volume. This will create an additional incentive.

2.South - above the photo (red sector) - Glory.

Here all dreams of recognition, popularity, fame come true. If you want your work to be appreciated, then stop at this site. You can become anyone: a writer, a musician, a boxer, a dancer, even an astronaut. Here you need to place photographs of awards or group photographs of famous personalities from the sphere of your dreams.

3.South left (purple) – Wealth.

If you dream of material wealth, big income, your own business, financial success, then this is the place for you. Add photos of expensive cars, luxurious mansions, money. Don’t forget to indicate the specific amount you want to receive. Inscriptions such as “my car”, “my million” will also enhance the effect.

4.South on the right (pink) – Love, Relationships.

Here you need to attach all the pictures that meet your love desires: photographs of lovers, as well as symbolic images (hearts, kisses, bouquets, etc.). But, if you dream of getting married, then do not leave images of real people. After all, your desires may not coincide with others.

5.East (green) – Family.

Needed to find peace and good relationships in the family circle. You can put photos of all family members here.

6.West (white) – Children, Creativity and Self-realization.

Here you need to place photos of your children or your hobbies.

7. North - below (black) - Career.

Here you place photos of your career growth, write the specific amount of your desired salary, a photo of your personal account, money, etc.

8. North - left (blue) - Wisdom.

These are your aspirations to learn everything new, to discover the unknown. Attach photographs of diplomas, various certificates of completion of courses, as well as other symbols of knowledge.

9. North - on the right (gray) - Travel and Helpers.

First of all, find beautiful photos of those picturesque places, cities and countries where you with all your heart want to visit. In this regard, you can also post photos of those people who can contribute to your travels.

Download pictures for the wish card

For you, I have collected the best and most beautiful pictures for a wish card, which you can download or print for free:

1

This is just a small part of the pictures for the wish card that I have collected for you. I have posted even more beautiful images on different pages. To go to the desired section, click on the pictures below.

1. You should choose only those images and photographs that you really like and evoke only positive emotions. If some part of the image is not to your taste, it is better to abandon the picture and choose another one. For example, if you dream of a house, you don’t need to choose an image with an apartment; if you dream of a certain brand of car, find a picture with this particular brand of car and the color that you like best.
2. On the vision board you should only place beautiful landscapes, photographs of happy people, images of your desires associated with happy moments. You cannot post pictures with dull landscapes, sad faces and other pessimistic views.
3. Photos for the wish card must be selected very carefully. In the main (central sector) there should be a photograph of you, where you are standing at full height and in a pleasant mood. Choose the photo where you like yourself. This also applies to photographs of your partner, children and other people important to you.
4. There is no need to fill all sectors at once. The process must be approached thoroughly, paying each sector the required amount of attention. You can first divide pictures and photographs into parts, this will facilitate the process of creating a visualization map. Only after the complete completion of one sector, it is necessary to move on to another sector. I usually start filling out the map from left to right. Also try to make approximately the same number of wishes in each sector, maintaining harmony.
5. You should only fill out your vision board with specific desires, especially when they are additionally written down in a notebook. In the case when a person writes about one desire, places a completely different one on the map, and thinks about a third, he gets nothing as a result. If you wish, you can indicate above certain pictures the exact date when you receive it.
6. Each sector should have its own pictures with those images that are very important to you. If you know how to use Photoshop, you can place yourself next to your desires.
7. If you find it difficult to choose suitable pictures of your desires, then you can draw everything yourself. This way you will put more energy into the card.

Let's start filling the sectors

Before you begin, it should be noted that there should be no empty sectors, so think through your desires for each sector.

• to the central sector .
• Sector "Wealth". Filling out the map begins from the southeastern part of the Whatman paper (wealth zone). It can be painted green or purple. This sector is responsible for a person’s financial situation, well-being and finances. In this sector you can place everything material: a car, household appliances, wardrobe, jewelry, yacht, etc. Your photo with a wad of money works great in the Wealth sector. To enhance the result, you can place a red pyramid in this part, which will attract money to you. Then you should write down affirmations related to money and only after the sector is completely ready, move on to the next one. When captioning pictures, do not use the particle “not”. We make signatures at the top or bottom of the images, without going into the picture. Here you need to write your desire as specifically as possible, for example: “My monthly income is 200 thousand rubles”, “I live in my two-room apartment in Moscow”, “I drive my own Porsche 911”.

• Self-realization and fame . This sector is located in the southern part of the central upper zone of whatman paper. The color of this zone is red. He is responsible for the glory and recognition of the card owner. The development of abilities can be carried out in absolutely any direction: in the family, at work, among relatives and friends. In this sector you can place images of certificates, awards, cups and certificates of merit. Each wish must be signed. For example: “I have many fans who give me gifts.”

• Relationships and love. The southwestern sector is the top right corner and is responsible for strong love, so you can paint it pink and even draw hearts. This sector is responsible not only for love for a partner, but also for friendship. If you have a spouse, then post a general photo with your husband. If the card is made by a person who has not yet met his soulmate, you can find a beautiful wedding photo from the Internet. But you should not paste a photo of a certain person without his consent. The Universe can perceive this fact as a love spell, and this violates its laws. In this case, not a single sector of the map will work. You can enhance the work of the sector with images of wedding rings, wedding processions and other attributes.

Affirmations for this sector may be as follows. “My husband carries me in his arms, he is caring and loving,” “I love and am loved, I radiate happiness,” “I have a happy marriage and the best husband.” If you want to strengthen your friendship or are in search of reliable and loyal friends, place in this zone a photo with images of people who are in nature, walking together and having fun. After posting all the photos and pictures, sign them.

• Family. The sector on the left in the central part is responsible for home and family, its color is green. Photos of close relatives, including pets, should be placed in this sector. Photos should radiate warmth. If at the moment you just want to start a family, then you should paste pictures of the kind of family you dream of. In particular, about households. Don't forget to find your dream home here. If this is a house, then the number of floors, interior. This area is enhanced by the image of a peach in any form; it can be glued or drawn.

• Health. At the very beginning, we already posted here our photo or drawing of a happy self. It remains to supplement this section with wishes about the state of health. For example, write down the desired blood sugar level if you suffer from diabetes or cholesterol levels and other important nuances. My friend painted herself pregnant, and the following year she became a mother for the first time. We sign all the wishes: “I am healthy and energetic,” “I have excellent posture,” “I am perfection itself.”

• Children, hobbies, creativity. In this sector we place everything related to children and creativity. The color of this part is white, silver or gold. If you don’t have children yet, but you dream of them, feel free to post a photo with children, a pregnant girl, a photo of a child in a stroller. If children are not in your immediate plans, you should not post such photos. If you already have a child, for example a girl, and you want to give birth to a boy, paste a photo of the boy; you do not need to include your daughter in this sector. As for creativity, you need to enter images of those activities that you dream of mastering or developing in this. For example, if you are a singer, post a photo of yourself singing; if you want to learn a musical instrument, then find pictures of this instrument. You can enhance this area with an image or pattern of balloons.

• Knowledge and wisdom. The left corner in the bottom row is responsible for this zone. They paint it in warm beige or brown shades. This sector helps in training and development. Here you can place diplomas, images of universities where you dream of studying, a driver’s license or photos of mentors and coaches from whom you would like to study. This also includes learning new languages. Select images that represent your development and inspiration. If at the moment you do not have any wishes for this section, you can use it for your loved ones, for example a child. Be sure to sign everything you think about when posting pictures. For example: “I am happy that my child graduated from university.”

Career. In the bottom row in the center there is an area responsible for business or work. The color of this sector is blue and light blue. Most often, images of the places where people dream of working and photos of the career ladder are posted here. If you dream of your own business, feel free to post pictures that represent your field of activity. If you already have a business and want to develop it, then post a photo with a whole line of clients. You can strengthen this zone with images of money in any form.

Travel and assistants. The lower right corner is responsible for this sphere and is painted gold, silver or white. Here you can safely post all the pictures with the countries and places you dream of visiting.

You can paste photos of specific places, your photo on the beach, in the forest or in a hot air balloon. Here you can also place an image of the higher powers in which you believe: an angel, God, saints. Helpers in this zone are people you know who often travel and can help you achieve these goals. Are you dreaming of a train ride with a friend to Spain? Post your photos and don’t forget to caption them: “Nastya and I are enjoying our trip to sunny Spain. Thank you".

Storing and activating a vision board

Opinions often differ about the best place to store such a Vision Board. Some people believe that this is a very private thing and should not be seen by anyone. Opponents insist on openness and that the best place is the bedroom.

But, in the end, you decide the place for the Vision Board yourself. If your loved ones understand and support your wishes, then you can hang the card above your bed. Then the energy of your relatives will work to fulfill their desires. If the reaction is negative, then it is better for them not to know about its existence.

When should you not make a treasure map?

You cannot create a map during eclipses!

A person who has not delved into the teachings of Feng Shui can create a visualization map any day when he has such a desire. The main thing is that you sincerely and strongly wanted to work on it, had several free hours and no one distracted you.

Activation of the Wish Board

Activation is also important. To do this, you need to write on it a very simple desire that is easy to implement, for example, “buy a cupcake.” You fulfill your wish at any time, and the card starts working. As soon as the wish has come true, the image that embodied it must be removed and another one hung up.

Make yourself a firm rule - every night before going to bed, look at your Vision Board and engage in visualization. This practice will help greatly speed up the implementation of your goals and aspirations, since at night while you sleep, the omnipotent Subconscious will come into play, which you will first charge with the necessary energy, concentrating on the final goal. Now your Subconscious will know exactly what to do.

Applications for tablet and smartphone

With tablets and smartphones everything works in much the same way. Go to PlayMarket or AppStore and select one of the applications on this topic.

Well, let's say Vision board. Download, install and create your goals in it, uploading suitable photos and adding a description.

The application will also offer to create a reminder to return to the created goals once a day, which is quite convenient.

Desires that lose value

The card is valid for three years. During this time, most of the wishes that you originally conceived should come true and the wish board with your own hands loses its magical power. If some wishes on your map have not come true, you need to think about them and understand whether you really need their implementation.

It doesn’t hurt to carefully analyze what exactly you are unable to achieve in order to fulfill your desires. For example, if you want to fly abroad, then you should stick your international passport on the card, and not a picture with a beautiful view. That is, first you will receive documents, and then you will be able to select a picture with a view of the country you want to visit.

Or if you want to lose weight, it is better to paste not the figure of a slender girl, but a picture of the gym where you will work out. After three years have passed, it is better to destroy the board with wishes, namely, burn it. Before burning, be sure to thank the card again for allowing many of your dreams to come true.

After that, you can start creating your new vision board! Be sure to make yourself a vision board, even if you don’t really believe that dreams can come true on their own! With its help, you will organize your dreams, and also make sure that if you clearly know your desire, it will come true, even if you do not make an effort.

My experience using the card

I first learned about the wish map at school. I was very inspired by the idea that you can connect your subconscious to making your dreams come true. But unfortunately, due to lack of experience or general immaturity, I was unable to use this tool correctly.

Remembering the wishes that were pasted on my first card, it becomes funny and sad at the same time. There was a photograph of a boy I liked, a scene of “Star Factory” cut out from a magazine, and several more absurd desires that had nothing to do with reality.

As I grew older, I learned from my first bad experience and tried not to repeat the mistakes. The most dear wish to my soul, fulfilled with the help of the card, was a trip to the USA under the student exchange program. It was not easy to implement it - we had to overcome a lot of obstacles. Get a visa, find an employer in America willing to hire me, negotiate with the dean, pass the exam ahead of schedule and defend my course work. In the end, everything worked out in the best way for me.

Another wish I want to tell you about is related to my childhood dream. After watching the movie “Point Break,” I really wanted to learn to surf. I never gave up on this dream, even as I grew older. And when I turned 25, I finally decided to place it on my wish map.

That year I got married. All thoughts were about the wedding. I decided to postpone the rest of my plans until later, when all the fuss had subsided. One day I was browsing the Internet, choosing a place for my honeymoon, and an advertisement for a surf camp in Morocco caught my eye. "Here it is!" – I thought! My search is over.

As a result, my husband and I spent the entire honeymoon conquering the waves from morning to evening. It was a truly exciting adventure, the memory of which still warms my heart.

Vision board - does it really work: reviews

Let’s take a closer look at several reviews about using the vision board and analyze the events described.

Anna:

After the movie “The Secret” I decided to test the law of attraction. He works! Everything is like on the wish map: I got married successfully, a daughter was born, and over the past three years we have bought a car and an apartment. All we have to do is wait for our vacation, and then we’ll go on vacation wherever we want.

Clear and achievable goals were set, reasonable deadlines were set, and everything was achieved.

Nastya:

I made a wish card and, returning from vacation, found in my room a brand new laptop of the same model that I really wanted to get. My parents unexpectedly decided to please me, although the old computer was fine, and I didn’t tell them what kind of laptop I wanted.

Another example of how a thought, given the proper strength, materializes and even infects others.

Tatiana:

I did it and regretted the time wasted. Nothing came true, no money, no new job. Apparently, he works for those who are already lucky in life.

Of course, you shouldn’t expect that your life will immediately change for the better as soon as you paste the last picture. But focusing on work without leaving room for dreams is not the best strategy. Set realistic goals and deadlines for their implementation, think through your actions, and everything will work out.

Now that you know what a vision board is, how to properly design and use it, all you have to do is not be discouraged and wait for your dreams to come true. The Wish Board is working! Just follow your dreams and be sure to believe in yourself and your strength.

Man made creation

Don't try to rush the process of creating your dream board. It is most likely easier and faster to do this on a computer, but such a collage will not carry the energy that a man-made creation has.

How does a wish card work? When you carefully select pictures, trying to feel each of them, make inscriptions and drawings, you endow your desires and your visualization card with the creative energy that is necessary to fulfill them.

Good mood

Left alone with your dreams and goals, tune in to a positive mood. You should be in a good mood when you start creating your vision board. Turn on your favorite music, light candles or an aroma lamp - do something that will allow you to completely immerse yourself in fantasy.

If you're in a bad mood, don't start creating a vision board. A negative attitude and upset feelings are not the best helpers in this.

Also, you should not draw up a dream map if you are feeling unwell or with your head occupied with thoughts of worries and problems.

Formulation of desires

Label the images you have chosen. This way you won’t forget what you meant when you selected a specific picture: “My beauty salon”, “My painting exhibition”, “My driver’s license”, “My motorcycle”.

When writing your desires, do not use particles “not”, “no” - they always carry a negative connotation. Judge for yourself:

• “I don’t
  want to get sick” - “I’m full of strength and health”;
• “I have no
  debts” - “I always have enough money for my goals and desires”;
• “I have no
  problems passing exams” - “I easily pass exams in all subjects and get the highest scores.”

Formulate your goals in an affirmative form and in the present tense, as if they are being realized in your life right now.

Don't focus on simple desires that can be realized the next day or in a week. This makes no sense. You need to choose those desires for the sake of which you want to improve, grow above yourself, become better than you were before.

Your wording should be specific and unambiguous. The phrase “I want a lot of money” will not attract money to you, no matter how much you want it. “A lot” – how much?

Write a specific amount. This specificity applies to absolutely all areas of life. Do you want children? Write how much exactly. Do you want to become a famous writer? Write down how many bestsellers you will write and publish.

Get detailed about your goals. For example, describe your future home: how many floors and rooms it has, is there a gym there, where is your bedroom located, think over the design and interior of each room. Visualize everything, down to the fireplace mantle and the library chair. Imagine what kind of lawn you have, whether there will be flower beds or a garden with fruit trees. Will your gazebo be round or rectangular?

It is important to believe in your dreams and goals. The dream map should not cause you skepticism and irony, otherwise it simply will not “work”. That’s why it’s so important to know how to make a wish card correctly and stick on it only those photos that evoke bright feelings in you.
