Lifestyle | Why Vision Boards Are Important

February 25, 2015 by Whitney 7 Comments

The wait is FINALLY over – today is the day I reveal my 2015 vision board! In the past I’ve shared some vision board tips, as well as my 2014 board. Last year’s board was extremely helpful in keeping me on track and on task. Thankfully, I was able to accomplish a huge amount of what I’d planned. I even accomplished some goals that I didn’t even include on my board. Literally watching my vision board “come to life” fueled the fire and I was determined to take my time in creating a very specific vision board for 2015.

Why Vision Boards Are Important

2015 Vision Board

I’ve been asked several times why vision boards are important. We’ve all heard that seeing is believing, right? As a visual learner (my) vision boards serve as a daily and tangible check list. Seeing what I want to achieve through images and phrases has become vital for my success. I can talk about what I want to do and the plans I have all day, but without a physical reminder I’d be all over the place.

Vision boards are daily reminders to help keep you on track and on task.

As I mentioned earlier, vision boards keep you on track and on task. These boards bring clarity to your vision. Writing your goals with pen and paper is a great start, but creating vision boards allow you to go deeper. Seeing your favorite quotes and powerful images on a regular basis get and keep you excited for what’s to come!

Vision boards are also important because they reinforce your purpose. If you keep your board in a place where you look every day, you’ll have no problems remembering what you’re working towards. I still hang mine on the wall over my desk. I go in my office everyday so I’m forced to see it. This definitely helps reinforce and reaffirm my purpose daily.

Reinforce and reaffirm your purpose on a daily basis by creating a vision board.

So tell me, what’s on your vision board for 2015? Why do you think vision boards are important? Let me know! 

This year is moving right along and I hope you’ve all taken some time to think about your goals for the upcoming months. I’m very excited about my year and I hope my excitement has rubbed off on you. Stay focused, stay positive and remember that it’s never too late to start a vision board. Start today if you have to you! Until next time, be blessed and stay safe…XO!

    I LOVE Vision Boards… It’s amazing how much you can accomplish by having your vision on a visual board and the feeling you get when you have accomplished something on your vision board is SOUL-SATISFYING! I’ve pretty much been using the same vision board for the past 2 years… this year I did things a tidbit different I did a vision book where I wrote out 15 things instead and already 2 things have been scratched off the list and we’re in month 2 so I’m right on schedule… Even though, I thought I was a little behind but I am just going to PRAISE how far that I’ve come and work on continuing to go FARTHER!!!! ~Wishing you the best with your vision board and look forward to seeing and reading all about your goals!

    I love vision boards, not only because they remind you of your goals, but they’re pretty to look at too 🙂

    Yes, I have copies of my vision “board” at work, in my bedroom, in the car and it’s the first page of my planner! One of my goals…30 mins of exercise is proving to be the most difficult challenge, but I am getting in bed before midnight!!!
