Why Having A Vision Board is Critical For Your Success

Vision boards allow their creators to bring prosperity and success into their lives through a visualization technique that has worked for countless people all over the world. The concept behind a vision board can be found in a very wide range of different religions, and scientists have given this same concept merit in the way it works.

Success can be defined as receiving something you truly desire. Within yourself and with this desire you can, with the help of a vision board, bring it to life and make it happen. By creating a vision board you are able to see, at all times, exactly where you are going and how you are going to get there. By doing this you, are opening up the realm of possibilities and sending out a powerful positive message to yourself and others that you are going to be what you desire and that success will be yours.

Creating a vision board is actually very simple and can be done in a traditional way via paper and clippings, or in the modern way which uses computer software to create the board. A digital copy of this vision board can then be carried with you at all times, making the process much more successful as you are able to view it more often. Copies can be carried on your cell phone, PDA, IPod, used as your screen saver, etc.

Depending on your own personal comfort, you should choose the method that makes you feel most at ease. A traditional vision board is created by the user from a blank canvas. It is then covered in images, colors and even smells that represent your ideal goals, dreams or wishes. Making a vision board by hand can be very personal, which the user then feels a deep connection to, making the outcome even stronger. Most people start with a traditional vision board before moving onto a digital version. This way you are able to experience this exciting and powerful tool that is critical for your success first hand. You can then move on to a digital version when you are ready.

The powerful imagery that you create through a complex series of pictures allows you to positively reinforce the goal that you wish to succeed. Using positive thought to attract positive things is, and has been proven to be possible. In fact, most of the most successful people you could ever wish to meet can all tell you that a vision board is how they got to where they are. By informing your subconscious about your intensions and how devoted you are to them, your subconscious will then look for opportunities that it previously would have dismissed. These opportunities will be made known to you and you will find in no time that by using a vision board, doors will open for you in the most likely and unlikely of places. So to ensure that your future success becomes a reality use a vision board because they are critical to your success.

The Power Of Having A Vision Board

Vision boards are not a new concept, although you may only just be beginning to hear them mentioned by some. The ancestry of vision boards can be traced back into the ages from the new-age terminology of positive affirmations. This tool is a prominent part of the visualization technique, right back into the dark ages when people took things from the Earth and drew pictures that represented what they wanted for themselves. This long history may have changed and shifted from religion to religion, and then encompassed into the more recent New Age theories, but the aim and design behind them has never changed.

A vision board is based on the law of attraction, which is something that various modern-day self help book authors have included into their writings. This proves the power behind them is something of a fact. The principle is based on visualizing what you want your life to become by sending out positive thoughts into the Universe. Positive thoughts attract positive rewards, whereas negative thinking only attracts more negativity and sadness into your life. Have you ever noticed that when things are going well in your life you find yourself becoming more “lucky”, finding out good news, getting that promotion at work, or even finding money left on the street? When you feel good and are positive with your life, you find that further good things happen. When things aren’t going so well, and we feel negative inside, we seem to attract even more sadness and “bad luck”. We may lose out on things that are important, miss an opportunity, etc. Thinking bad thoughts, feeling low, and even depression seems to bring more of the same, which, in turn, makes thing worse – a vicious cycle. So how do we change it all? How to we get off the roller coaster for good?

Answer: By making a vision board.

We are not powerless to be stuck in a rut, although it may feel like that sometimes. We can make a conscious change by changing the way we think. By changing the way we think, we are able to access the power that each of us has to change our lives and the lives of others. A vision board is a tool that is used in this process. Everyone, no matter who you are, can benefit from creating a vision board. You begin by selecting images and text that you feel empowered by and that reflects what you want to bring to your life. Put all of these things together on a poster board or other similar surface, and place it in a prominent part of your home. Place it on a wall or a location that can be seen by you frequently. You may even decide to put it on your computer. No matter where your vision board is displayed, it allows you to see the overall combined image that you want for your life – a powerful positive image. The human mind is very powerful in its own right. Many people do not understand this and therefore do not exercise or access this power. By using a vision board you are able to access this powerful side of yourself that may have been unintentionally working against you in your negative thoughts.

Are you just satisfied or empowered?

Let me start by saying if you are comfortable being “satisfied” this blog post is not for you…

Consider this: it is possible to be fulfilled in your career, have control over the amount of money you bring in each month, to love what you do and to make the world a better place while you are doing it. If you have always believed deep down that this is true, and you are motivated to do whatever it takes to create that in your life (yet until now did not know exactly how), then this article is for you.

With the direct sales industry experiencing explosive growth over the last two years, the need in the marketplace for more business opportunities and the necessity for people to learn skills to better their lives, better their circumstances and empower themselves, John Assaraf and Bonnie Bruderer saw a definite need, and more importantly, a definite opportunity in creating a different type of direct sales opportunity.

Now, just hearing the words “direct sales’ may have conjured a systemic response from within. Either you have had a terrific experience in the past and know the true benefits that direct sales offers, or perhaps you have a different opinion and like some, fear the lotions, potions and pills that may have been peddled to you from friends and family members. Direct sales can offer tremendous opportunities, such as more freedom, more financial rewards and the ability to create the lifestyle you truly desire and deserve. I am thrilled that there is a new opportunity and I jumped on board with both feet.

No matter how you’re feeling about direct sales, let me explain how V.I.S.S. is different, and how by joining V.I.S.S. you actually can experience what it means to be in business for yourself. John and Bonnie have spent tens of thousands of dollars on personal development for themselves, they’ve authored six books between them, and they have combined experience of three and a half decades in the personal development industry. They realized that they have knowledge, experience and access to training, support and information that can not be found anywhere else. They also realize that what people need most at this point is a business opportunity, thus V.I.S.S. was born. V.I.S.S. stands for Vision. Inspiration. Strategy & Support; all of which you will experience in each and every aspect of the company.

The opportunity centers around joining the team as a distributor and learning how to teach the Vision Board Experience (VBE) to others through tele-seminars and webinars, in-home settings and corporate settings. It is the perfect opportunity for empowered individuals that are looking to supplement what they are already doing or to add to a coaching or training practice, but also for those individuals who are simply looking to make a big impact in the world.

If this sounds like you and you are wondering how to get involved, I encourage you to join one of our business opportunity calls on Wednesday’s at 5 P.M. to learn more. Only join us if you are serious about making a big difference in the world and your life and business. We are looking only for those who are empowered! We are looking for the first 100 Visionaries to join us at the ground level and are quickly approaching that goal, just three weeks after launch.

Visit V.I.S.S. and register for the call today, if you know you are ready to finally experience a different type of business opportunity.

You keep hearing that meditation is extremely important to well-being, stress relief and reaching your highest goals and dreams, right? Years ago, the concept of meditation was considered by many to be some kooky, new-age nonsense that was practiced by people very different from ourselves. No longer is this the case. The HUGE benefits of meditation are being discovered, discussed, practiced and realized by many, many people, including people just like you.

But it can sometimes be difficult to get the hang of meditation.

When you first decide to hop onto this meditation bandwagon and see what the fuss is all about, you’re probably going to wonder if you’ll ever understand exactly what meditation ‘feels’ like. As you sit and attempt to become ‘quiet’ your thoughts get louder than they’ve ever been before and you begin to realize just how powerful your mind might be. And how on earth will you ever get control of it?

Here are 5 tips to improve your experience with meditation and get better and more effective results. Discover the power that meditation can bring into your life.

1. Practice, practice, practice…

Everyone says it. This analogy has been used a million times. It’s like riding a bike. In order to master the art of meditation and discover the extremely powerful benefits that this practice can bring to your life, mind, body and spirit, you absolutely have to practice. Not many of us got on a bike and just rode off into the sunset. Meditation is the same way. The first couple of time, 5 times, 20 times that you sit and attempt to quiet your mind, you’ll probably want to give up. But just know that if you keep at it, there will be a lightbulb at some point. Make the commitment.

2. Make the Commitment

Speaking of commitment, you’ll want to try and harness all the self-control you can muster and make meditation a daily part of your life. This is much easier said than done, because we can think of a hundred things to do that we already think are working for us, like cleaning, running after the kids, working, eating, sleeping and watching the tube. If you’ve only read about the benefits that meditation can have, but have never experienced it yourself, you may be more apt to shrug it off. If you make the commitment to work 20 minutes to a half hour of practice into your daily schedule, only then will you reap the rewards.

3. Remove Distractions

In order to effectively meditate, especially for a beginner, you’ll want to create an environment that’s distraction free. Shut off the radio, television and cell phone, wait for the kids to take a nap and find a spot that is quiet, peaceful and serene. If you don’t know of a spot like that, find one or create one. Go sit outside, lie on a park bench, sit in the bathroom or hide under your bed. The best thing to do is to create a ’space’ in your favorite room. Light candles, incense, play soft, rhythmic music or open a window to feel a cool breeze. Get around things that make you feel at ease and make that your place to attempt meditation.

4. Count Your Breaths

When you are first beginning meditation, counting your breaths is said to be the best way to get into your ‘zone.’ I usually start at 10 and work my way backwards. Try to take deep breaths that you can feel in your abdomen. Count these and try to focus only on the number and your breathing. Whenever I begin to meditate, I still find other thoughts getting in and taking me away from my counting. When this happens, I start back and 10 and try to refocus. After a while, you’ll find that you are able to connect to a deeper place within your mind as you count. That’s the beginning of the fun!

5. Look for Images, Listen for Sounds and Enjoy the Peace

Meditation results in many different experiences for many different people. No one outcome is something that should be expected. You’ll find that your own experience with meditation may be quite unique. As you learn to quiet your mind and look beyond your surface thoughts, you may notice images, sounds and memories come to the surface. Meditating is a bit like dreaming. If you can stay with these waking dreams, you may find answers to current problems, healing opportunities and pleasant memories of old friends appearing for your enjoyment. No matter how your personal meditation experience plays out, you should feel less stress, the discovery of inspiration and a calm and present peace of mind when you are finally able to get into the zone.

So if you’ve been following, you’ll already know that I just released the free ebook download version of Hugs and Popsicles a couple days ago. This is a book of children’s poems with full-color illustrations, and the title poem is about how hugs and popsicles can cure just about any ailments you may have. Just today I’ve been further enlightened by a free hugs movement that’s being spread all over the world!

Not only did I hear about this campaign, but someone I know actually got to experience some free love today while he was driving his cab. He was circling the downtown square in Springfield, Missouri, while waiting for his next Taxi call, and he spotted a large group of people with Free Hugs signs! He said he pulled over, jumped out and was swarmed by people wanting to give out free hugs. What an emotional experience, both for him and for me as he recounted the story.

I am simply thrilled to know that people are banding together to change the world with love. What an amazing concept! These are people who truly understand that giving away love doesn’t take anything from a person’s soul. In fact, quite the opposite. Giving love creates more love, which fills the world with warmth and happiness. THIS is where we’re headed.

So drop all your stress, all your woes and get real for a second. Watch this video clip and if it pulls a string in your heart, watch it again. Decide today that you’re going to do your part to spread the love, even if it’s just a simple smile at a passing stranger.

Do you think you or someone you love has an addictive personality? This may be true, but there may be an explanation, at least partially, that you’ve probably never considered before. Read on to find out the possibilities.

**This article is in no way offered to be a replacement for any traditional addiction rehabilitation or treatment that you may be seeking. Please use this information in addition to any programs that you are currently involved in and make choices that will be most helpful for you.

An addictive personality is now classified as a brain disease and is described as a collection of traits that predispose a person to engage in physical or psychological activity which negatively impacts quality of life. People with an addictive personality are often engaged with several additions, but what about those of us who have just one or two? Maybe we’re addicted to things that aren’t seen as particularly harmful by the general population. Like TV or drama! Whether it’s a daily bowl of ice cream or a daily fix from some kind of illegal drug, addictions are everywhere.

What if I told you that it’s possible that an addictive personality is caused by excess energy and moments of genius that aren’t being channeled properly? Would you laugh, or would you want to know more?

It’s quite possible that an addiction is created as a distraction; a way to distract oneself from something that seems particularly painful, difficult or impossible. Now that seems right on the money, right? But what about if we create these addictions because of emotions and feelings that we don’t even realize are right under the surface of our radar, pushing to be let free and to create and attract our lifelong desires?

I discovered a program that I find to be amazing. As soon as I heard about it bought the book immediately…within seconds. Now, I haven’t been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, nor do I have any addictions that are considered major by the mainstream public, like alcohol, drugs or worse…(and no, I don’t even like drama). But this material did strike a chord when it promised to allow me to let loose my fire and harness my personality to help me become as successful as some of the most famous names we recognize… da Vinci, Einstein, Edison, etc.

Wow…harness my personality? I start projects that I don’t want to finish. I lose concentration when I get bored. I LOVE creating something new, but tend to lose interest when I dream up the next idea. My follow through tends to be non-existent if I’m not getting the satisfaction I’m looking for. Do you have an addictive personality, ADD/ADHD or find any of what I just said to resonate with your life?

Yes? Well, do I have something great for you! It’s called The DaVinci Method. Right on the front page of the website is a little quiz that will determine if you possess a DaVinci type personality. If you do, or if you have ADHD, need help with addiction, or just want to be better at what you do, you absolutely must check out this program. I’ve only read the book and I learned a ton about how to take charge of my gifts and focus them into doing what I love, sharing them with the world and ignoring the crazy distractions and addictions that I have created in my life.  This is a whole new concept, but every word was breathtaking, refreshing and provided me with a great deal of relief. There are other people out there who face the same issues as me (some on a much higher level) and there’s an answer.

It’s in the DaVinci Method. Go check it out and please let me know what you think. Did this help with your addiction? Do you better understand your addictive personality or why you can’t focus? Have you tried the Davinci Method? Tell me about it.

One of my favorite parts of being online is making connections. If you’re in the business of changing the world (like I am) then making connections is a crucial part of getting to know your audience, finding out what they want, and then providing it for them. When you’re on purpose, these connections can be more fulfilling than any material gains would ever be. As I was writing my kids poetry book, Hugs and Popsicles, I had no idea what would happen when I offered it to the world. Within 24 hours I’ve made some amazing connections as people pop out of the ether to thank me for sharing these poems. And many of them see the world much in the same way that I do.

A lovely connection was created when a man named Tony read my book and sent me a message telling me how much he enjoyed it. He sent me his link, expecting that I might enjoy it as well. In fact, his views are much the same as mine, so I wanted to make a post, not only to thank him, but to share with you what he has to offer. His site begins with an adorable anecdote about ‘Why God Created Children‘. This will make you lol…I know I did!

As I began to look around his website, he’s got hundreds of articles offering natural ways to help many health problems and ailments; cancer, acne, everything from A to Z. I encourage you to browse through his database of articles, as you may very well learn about an herbal, natural or homemade remedy that could help you in your daily life.

You can find the article directory here, and I encourage you to browse the left side for links to inspirational, humorous and health topics. When you open yourself up to making connections, you’ll be amazed at what you can learn, how you can grow and what kind of abundance can begin pouring into your life.

Please retweet, FB share and press the ‘like’ button for this article. Let’s help Tony’s website get the traffic it deserves by sharing his wonderful collection of resources.

I also encourage you to enter your email address to the right of this page. By doing this you will receive a free ebook download, access to my own free products as they become available and updates on awesome resources that I find while I’m out on the internet making connections!

Here’s to your success making connections. You can start right here by posting your comments and sharing your own stories with me.
