Are Vision Boards A Waste of Time?

"Vision boards are important"

I can point to a vision board for every business I’ve ever started because there are so many reasons why Vision boards are important. I can also point to all the haterz who told me I was wasting my time, and that I should ‘just start’! how did I respond? Can’t exactly remember but it probably went something like:

“Miss me with your opinions”. But I decided to put together something more eloquent for your response.

Here is exactly what to tell people who think Vision boards are a waste of time

“Imagine where you will be and it will be so”

Fans of The award-winning movie, Gladiator will recognize this one! Visualization is one of the most powerful things we possess as human beings. Not only can it be a propelling force for action but also it allows you insight into what you really want.

Consistency of Purpose is a Major *insert key emoji* :-)

Benjamin Disraeli, one time British Prime Minister said ‘The Secret to success is consistency'. One of the easiest ways to move closer to your goals is to keep it top of mind. Hanging your vision board some where you will see it everyday will achieve exactly that!

The Universe is on your side

“When you want something, all the universe conspires to help you get it”…that one is from writer Paolo Coehlo. And how exactly does this work? Well when something like a goal is at the top of you mind, you are constantly in search of resources (including people) that will help you attain it. You do it without even thinking. It’s kind of magical.

Drake on Cake

“You Know it’s real when you are who you think you are”

That’s from Drake’s new single ‘God’s Plan’. Imagine that written on a cake to celebrate your store opening. I can see it, can you? The immense power of vision boards will become truly apparent when you look at your life and you realized that you have achieved the things you wanted or come pretty darn close. You wanted to achieve organic celebrity patronage you got it. You wanted to be able to stop accepting orders because your production is at capacity, you got it.

I really hope you give vision boards a try. In fact if you’re ready go ahead to try out my super-easy-to-use template here
