Just when everyone thought that the world was going to end on December 22, well here we all are again celebrating a new year, making new resolutions, waking up each day thinking how come the days come by so fast and soon Christmas will again be around the corner and of course we start being panicky about it because we still haven't lose that extra calories from all feasting we've done for the holidays then all of a sudden, its that time of the year again!? SIGH!
Either the Earth's rotation pattern have decreased to 20 hours per day and NASA or whatever agency is involved did not inform us about it or .. I am just getting old !? .. Oh! damn those NASA peeps, they should have told us about the changes happening to our universe that affects planet Earth! tsk!
Anyway, since we still have no update on when doom's day will be rescheduled or if NASA will ever make that announcement .. and maybe, the late 2o's bug is affecting me too much, i dunno, but the reality is that, the new year has began. 8 days down, 357 days to go baby but my VISION BOARD is ready!
Uh-huh, you read that right. A Vision board, in ALL CAPS. Why? Well, I'm trying to send a message that it's a big deal. haha! JK!
I made my first vision board in 2008, inspired by a local celebrity's knack for it. At first, I had the idea that a vision board was a collage of your wish list, just that. And I was too gullible at that time and without understanding why, I bought a yellow cartolina, cut pictures and phrases and ideas from my old magazines and collaged them. I posted the whole thing on my wall and stayed there for 2 years until I realized it was collecting too much dust and that, well, while some of them came true the rest .. they were just too unspecific and unrealistic at that time .. so I took it down and remained visionless for 2011 .. maybe that's why I lost myself that year, haha :p
Then 2012. After years of self-awareness and realizations and life lessons, I also became mature enough to understand the real essence of a vision board. It's basically a visual interpretation of your goals, dreams and wishes. You look at it everyday and it should be able to inspire and motivate you to work harder in achieving the things that you want. It is not supposed to be just an ordinary wish-list that you fancy about rather it should give you direction on the way to fulfilling these goals -- so it should be time-specific, achievable and realistic (oooh! lessons from nursing school!) -- the reason why I decided to make a yearly inspiration board and this year I have never been more excited to create one because I have also never been more focused and driven than now.
Here, take a sneak peek at what I have in store for my 2013 ..
They are actually "vision boards" haha. 2 separate scrapbook paper boards put together and to make sure I have a good view of it, I hanged it at the door of my cabinet, that way, whenever I enter my room, go to bed, wake up and do anything in my room, I'd always have a way to take a glimpse of the 2013 I dream of -- some are really serious stuff, some are funny, some are weird -- just to let you know, but then go ahead and laugh coz you think its cute and copy paste some them too if you want to, im willing to share because I want to be a more generous person this year, haha .. and it still has blank spaces on it because I would like to make room for any wishes and goals that I continue to make for the next 357 days. But as early as now, I'm letting the positive vibes roll in and will claim that ..OH YES! It's going to be graaaaaaaaand! :))
