Clarity Through Vision Boards



The journey towards manifestation of your hopes and dreams can seem like a long and thankless road. Sometimes we get so caught up trying to make our lives happen that we can't see the forest for the trees. A vision board is a fantastic way to gain clarity on exactly what it is you want in your life. Today 3 friends and I got together and using the information from an amazing book that I've mentioned in past blog post before. This book is called The Passion Test: The Efforless Path to Discovering Your True Life Purpose by Janet and Chris Attwood. The Passion Test is all about aligning yourself with your true purpose in life in a way that feels fulfilling and authentic. Whether that means that your passion is to sail around the world, become a world-famous chef or write the next best-seller.

Today in creating our vision boards we did something more important than mere goal setting, we set our intentions about how we want our lives to look to us in the near future. We put our feet in the direction of living lives that aren't a series of mundane tasks that pass for success. This is living from your heart and soul and being someone who can really make a difference in a career that is truly a calling... well a passion. When we finished our inner selves were bared and we really had a sense of where our lives were going. This is not a road of conventional security, and does take a certain amount of plunging ahead on faith with bravery. But the things that mean the most take courage to bring into existence. Whether it was finding true love, traveling the world, or becoming a singer-songwriter, we laid out all our deepest desires and our futures look very bright indeed!

You'll notice a copy of What's Up With My Life:Finding Your True Life's Purpose by Gail Thackray laying next to our vision boards. Gail Thackray is an author I love to mention mainly because her book 30 Days To Prosperity (which also has amazing information on constructing a vision board) had such an impact on my life. She is one of my mentors who I was blessed to complete my 3rd level Reiki certification with; having gone through levels 1 and 2 with a personal friend and mentor Aisha Shareiff where I work at Aisha's Bodyworks. By completing my vision board, I reinforced the shape that I want my life to take over the next few years. I know that being a crystal healer and learning a deeper knowledge of enlightening people about the potential of their life path by giving them tarot readings is going to play a huge part in my life. In addition to a crystal healing session; I actually ended up giving two more tarot readings this evening, and will give two more tomorrow. I feel that my life is not only taking off, it's beginning to soar!
