Making a Realistic and Practical Vision Board

     I recently saw the question about making a vision board “Can a vision board be 3D?” The simple answer to that is yes but the implications for the whole system go far deeper. In making a vision board you have the options to engage the laws of attraction and make it as realistic as you can or as symbolic as you like. It’s really up to you and it depends on how your own neuro linguistic programing (NLP) system responds best. To find out more about your NLP preferences try reading some of the popular literature published by Tony Robbins such as Unlimited Power or Awaken the Giant Within.

     Going back to the original question, when making a vision board you want it to be as wild and way out as possible. This is your time to play. There are no rules and there are no boundaries. In short, if the fancy takes you then make your vision board as 3D as possible. Multi-dimensional vision boards, in my opinion, are the best. Imagine looking at a photo of Martin Luther King and recalling his speech. Now imagine seeing the photo and reading his words alongside. Next think how it would be to see him and actually hear a recording of his inspiring words as you look at his image. Which do you think has the greatest impact?

     Why not turn the vision board on it’s head, or side, or back or however you’d like to think of it and just build it up. There’s a reason why virtual reality is so popular and architects make models. The mind responds so much more favorably to vivid images because, in fact, it can’t tell the difference between what’s real and what’s imagined. This is why to achieve success it’s so important to visualize it first.

     
     So, yeah, go on, make your vision board two dimensional, three dimensional or four dimensional if you can think of a way. Anything goes but most of all, enjoy the process!
