Watch Your Dreams Unfold

By Lisa Olona

This year I will put it on the wall where my bed faces so I can wake up and have a reminder of where I'm headed in 2010. This helps my motivation.

I have done this for about 7 years now, except I missed one year, 2009. Every year for those first 6 years I felt myself progressing in my career, my finances, my relationships, and even my fitness levels. I have always been a believer in these dream boards, but never as much of a believer as I am after missing a year. Like I said, I didn't do a dream board in 2009, and I have not felt this stagnant in years. I felt like I had no sense of direction, and most of all, I felt like I had less motivation my life. But that's o.k., because that is my lesson learned. Today, I will be working on my dream board!

It has always been extremely important to me to feel like I'm moving forward in my life. In order to feel like I'm living, I must keep my motivation up and keep growing. This is where dream boards have been such a significant tool. For example, in 2007 I put a house on my dream board. By April of that year, I bought my first house. In 2003, I put a dog on my board. That is the year I purchased my first dog.

The list can go on and on. You can dream about taking that big vacation this year, and put it on your board. Whatever your dream is, put it on your board. The sky is the limit! In other words, there are no limits! Let yourself dream. Dream about what you always have wanted for yourself. When those doubting words kick in, "Oh you won't be able to afford that this year," or "you haven't been that fit since high school," just put those words aside. Find those pictures that you want for yourself, and place them on that board. Dream, and dream big!

It is such a powerful way to get motivation to start out the year. Additionally, it's a rewarding way to finish out the year with a sense of accomplishment! You will be amazed how everything on your dream board unfolds. I encourage you to create your dream board and, literally, watch your dreams unfold!
