Vision Board Success Secrets

LOOK BACK AND SEE THE FUTURE

“Looking ahead does not always lead to success. Sometimes it pays

to look in the other direction as well.

That, in fact, is one of the first survival lessons the early settlers learned

from the American Indian. An Indian, when he traveled, knew his position

on Earth from two directions, not just one. The Indian regularly stopped,

turned around - and looked back where he had been.

He saw again the landmarks he had just passed. But now he saw them the

way they’d appear on his way home. By looking backward, he saw

his future path.” - Except by Gaylord Briley

Looking back to see how far you have traveled is an essential step in achieving Success. It helps you by; keeping your energy high, staying motivated and working with the Law of Attraction.

When we “set sail for distant shores” - Set a goal and take action towards achieving that goal, we focus on and move toward the end result, always keeping our focus on what we want. This focus combined with constant and repetitive attention creates the neural pathways in the brain that help us notice the opportunities present in the environment and it also gives us inspired thoughts and intuitive hunches.

And so we journey and grow into the goal. Some goals take longer than others to manifest into reality and to help you keep “on track” and enthusiastic it helps to look back every so often.

Occasionally looking back to acknowledge what you have achieved, where you have come from and how far you have travelled really supports your self esteem and energy levels.

Success Breeds Success… Like Attracts Like!

On a “long haul” - long term goal, if we only focus on where we are going we are likely to feel burn out, tired and then the negative chatter begins in the mind. Doubts, fears and worries could set in, simply because the goal may still be a distant dream.

This is where “taking stock” acknowledging success and looking back to see how far you have come is not only a useful tool but essential to your Success.

A practical way to do this is to write a list of your achievements - Your Success List.

Every day or as often as possible list what you have done, how you have developed and how much you have experienced since you began your journey towards your goals. This will not only raise your self esteem, give you reason to feel proud but it also sends out a strong signal a resonance into the Universe that

You Achieve Your Intentions

and this will not only bring you faster results, but it will give you new, fresh ideas, more efficient action steps and you will feel energized and inspired to keep moving forward.

List 3 of Your Successes in each of these Areas:

• Over the last 6 Months

• Over the last 12 - 36 Months

• Over Your Whole Lifetime

Acknowledge and Celebrate all Wins and see how quickly you will achieve even more …

Remember What you focus on expands!

Enjoy

Love Barbara

Vision Boards and Feng Shui

Announcing the Life Balance -Vision Board.

Coming soon… Designed according to the principles of Feng Shui of placement and flow.

If you are interested in flow and energy … you will have a choice to create your Vision Board according to this principle or not. You will have a guide and advise, where to place your images according to the bagua. The bagua is based on the 8 trigrams of the I Ching, the Book of Transformations and according to the Western School of Fung Shui - " the bagua may mimic a thought pattern or even the way that information is processed through our brains."

The 9 areas of the bagua consist of :

Wealth - Represents all types of prosperity and abundance,

Fame - Your reputation. How do you want to be known, what are your gifts?

Love - How would you like love, in all its forms to be in your life?

Family - Happy healthy fun filled moments with family and friends

Health - What does health mean to you?

Creativity - Curiosity, wonderment. What do you do in your free time? Find joy, unconditional happiness, laughter.

Self Improvement - Knowledge, education and self cultivation.

Career - Professional path, skills, fulfillment.

Travel - Being in the right place at the right time.

The Vision Board Creation Kit will consist of the Life Balance - Vision Board template, which you can use as a guide or to directly paste your pictures on, a brief explanation about what each of these areas signify and their relevance and some support words.

Some of my clients who have followed this principle have seen fast results.

"Barbara's Visionboards coaching and the Feng Shui Bagua was a powerful combination to jump start my life in 2009. I created a clear vision in 9 different areas of my life and thanks to the work I did with Barbara, I was able to accomplish most of my goals very quickly." Jonathan Sugai, Shiatsu Therapists Hawaii, - USA.

If you wish to create your Vision Board according to the Feng Shui bagua, visit www.visionboards.net or email barbara@visionboards.net and ask me for a sample board. (conditions apply)

Do you have time for your life?

Do you have time for your life?

… to live, work, play, love and enjoy?

A day is made up of

1440 minutes (24 hours)

Our time is segmented

7 days per week,

365 days per year.

We all have the same amount of time.

What do you do with your time?

Are you in the “rat race” of overwhelm …

with way too much to do, too little time and not enough

resources to support all the things you want to do?

There is a great maxim - “Time equals Money”

But that is not necessarily true,

Time equals life!

The only currency we have is time!

How do you use the time you have… or rather how do you live the life you have?

Depending on your awareness, your level of consciousness, you will perceive the events of your life as either problems or opportunities.

You will either be chasing time and trying to “get it all done” while some people are wondering how to fill the day. There are others who feel truly blessed with every new moment to explore, to live and breathe and see life as timeless and use every minute as an opportunity achieve or experience something wonderful, no matter what their circumstances are.

How do you feel about your time, your life?

Write you answers.....and contemplate is this really how you want to live?

ex:

I feel blessed every waking moment.

I feel sad, overwhelmed and disappointed that I just cant get what I want.

Before we go racing too quickly into 2010 - the best year of your life…

and now that “Blue Monday” is done, how about creating some support structures to ensure you stay on track and achieve exactly what you want this year, including a balanced approach to enjoying all areas of your life.

1. Of course you know I am going to suggest a Vision Board! … because it will give you a clear vision of what you want and what the life you would love to live, actually looks like.

2. Get clear on your passion, there is a deep driving force within you that demands expression. When you are living your passion, your life will be flowing, on purpose, rich and full. There are different stages that may develop when you are living your passion, it could take a while to develop fully, it’s possible that it will evolve from a few different paths over some years. Be patient allow the deep inner passion to reveal itself through your daily experiences and live each day as fully as possible with passion.

3. Discover what your highest values are;

Freedom, family, money, security, contribution, community?

When you are really clear on what you value most and you spend your time in activities that honor your top 3-5 values, you will be amazed at how well life flows. Time seems to slow and the things you desire, manifest with ease and incredible speed.

4. Consider giving some structure or a timetable to your activities.

I always admire people who are structured, organized and plan their lives with methodical, logical application. In fact, I tend to attract these types of people to me as I am always eager to learn time efficient solutions to getting more done in less time.

Group “like activities” together; do all your phone calls at a specific time, take small jobs with you to do while waiting for an appointment, create a list of tasks, allocate a specific time to certain job, or person and stop when time is up. Schedule “play” time, when you let go and “let God”, you allow for those “aha” moments of awakening and inspiration. There are many time saving organizational strategies and tactics that you can implement and tailor to your lifestyle. Hire a coach and create your best plan of action.

5. Lastly, or maybe firstly, be fully present (and grateful if possible) in every moment of your life. Using “Present time consciousness”, you will be amazed how time will stand still. Things will flow, miracles will occur. You will be in the right place at the right time, doing what is right. You will feel an unstoppable force inside you awakening as you connect to your own inner power and life force. Surround yourself with beauty wherever possible, as this helps you stop and take notice and evoke gratitude.

Enjoy your time and the way you choose to live your life, let me know how these energy support tips work for you.

Wishing you peace and joy, beyond reason.

Love,

Barbara.

See what you love … or Love what you see?

Happy 2010!

Do you see what you love?

… or Love what you see?

When you look at your Vision Board/Treasure maps

make sure the pictures that you have pasted there

are true representations of what you really want.

Remove any that no longer "feel" good for you.

Be honest with yourself. If there is a sense of sadness,

resistance or disappointment, remove the picture.

Think about what you really want and then leave a space

for it, write it on the map as a “place holder” till you find

the pictures that match the feeling your desire.

The boards must make you feel good spontaneously,

from the inside out. For some, it is now time to take

the whole map down and begin a new one.

What a great way to start 2010 with a New Board

- a clean slate!

If you still want what you have on the map, do not destroy it,

put it away or hide it somewhere safe and allow

your subconscious mind to work out the best way

and best time to bring it to you.

p.s. Have Your Vision Board Made for you!

I have discovered an Artist in Australia who creates

the most beautiful custom designed Vision Boards just for you.

This is so new and we are still working to get her website up,

but I had to share this with you because it is such a wonderful idea!

Too many people procrastinate about making a Vision board,

if you know someone like that please pass this email to them.

Linda Upton in Australia will ask you specific questions and create

YOUR board for you, then all you have to do is LOOK at it, enjoy it

and then allow the law of attraction to "do its thing"

IF you are interested in having your board Made specifically FOR YOU!

Please email me barbara@visionboards.net for more information.

Testimonial:

“Dear Linda, Thank you very much for your splendid visionboard!

How did you guess I was interested in yoga!? When I come close to it I can "feel" your enthusiasm, and your beautiful intent. Thank you! Keep creating! I will start adding a few personal things now and then to make it

even more complete. - Mr J, Southampton, United Kingdom.

Count Your Blessings & cut your losses!

As 2009 comes to a close, many people will be breathing a sigh of relief,

saying “Phew - I’m glad I got through 2009!”

There are other people who are celebrating “What a great year I had in 2009!”

Whichever way you are moving into 2010 before the year starts how about dropping some “extra weight?”…

to set yourself free and gain more energy to launch into a Spectacular 2010!

What are you going to LET GO of?

To get more energy, more enthusiasm and more inspiration

release what’s “weighing you down.”

Some “LET GO”suggestions for 2010:

REGRET

FEAR

GUILT

ANGER

OLD GOALS

Another way to gain more energy, get excited and launch into 2010 is to:

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS!

We have heard so much about the power of Gratitude,

being thankful, keeping gratitude journals and writing thank you

lists, so lets go deeper into this by counting your blessings!

Where have you truly been blessed this year?

Create a daily “count your blessings list”

Family?

Health?

Achievements?

Friends?

Living your passion…

For some life itself is a blessing - to be able to wake up each day

and have another 24 hours to live!

If you had a difficult year? Ask yourself

“What did I learn?”

“Did I grow?”

“Is there an opportunity in what happened?”

Take a few moments and consider your blessings and if you want

to really start the year off with high energy and a surge of inspiration

add this daily list to your gratitudes,…

Remember to cut the guilt, worry and fear, by using the techniques

you have in the 30 Day Accelerators or giving yourself the

gift of coaching to help you dissolve the blocks, discover your passion,

move forward and have the best year imaginable!

May 2010 be the year you live your Vision & Your Passion!

Wishing you a Happy, Healthy, Prosperous 2010!

Thank you

Love,

Barbara

Vision Board Hot Tip - # 5 - Cosmic Insurance Policy!

You can get what you want in 3 - 30 Days!

Follow the easy 7 steps and create Your Vision Board (Treasure Map).

If you don’t get your goals in that time:

You may need more “juice” - motivation to get connected to your passion, or

You may need to take your foot OFF the brake.

To manifest your success faster and accurately

you need to understand the “ 7 Principles of Warp Speed Success.”

Warp Speed Principle # 5 - Cosmic Insurance Policy!

You have a Vision Board and you have the visual aspect of what you want.

The proven goal setting strategy is to “start with the end in mind”

and by using a well designed Vision Board, your brain and mind

can work with a holistic visual, verbal and physical “end result.”

Now, how do we ensure success?

Are you sure what you want is accurately represented

in the images on your board?

What if you added one simple concise statement that covers all bases:

“This, or something even better, manifests for me now,

in totally satisfying and harmonious ways,

for the highest good of all concerned”

This is quoted from Shakti Gawain’s book -

“Creative Visualization” where I first discovered the Treasure Map

process in 1990.

Please use this type of statement with your goal setting and action steps,

place it somewhere on your Vision Board and see how quickly

your dreams start to manifest.
