Follow your lusting heart

Follow your heart. Follow your heart. If we live as a person who follows the heart over the head, are we then trusting the lust?

Vision Board




It is very easy in this life, to forget what you truly want. We find ourselves maybe unhappy, or not satisfied. It is so easy to lose sight, of the things we have made important to us. Everyday life takes its toll on our goals, and values. It is easy to have a clear desire for something better, then have it turn into a fuzzy picture that cannot be seen clear.
   I have always been a fan of putting my goals in writing. There is something that happens in your mind, when your hand translates thoughts to the page. It can transform a passing thought, into a more concrete plan. This can also help to remind you of your desires, after the thought has long passed. However we are not reminded of our goals every day, by a page in a notebook, or journal.
   A visual of your goals posted somewhere you pass everyday is a fabulous way to keep your mind on the right track. This brings me to the idea of a vision board. Some people believe that if you put something on a vision board it, comes to you. Maybe a cosmic force will bring you something you desire, if you place it on a magical board?? Well, I don't necessarily believe that it has powers of any kind. I think that the power of seeing your goals every day, as a reminder of who you want to be, is the power.
    There are three different types of vision boards. The first one is for the person who clearly knows what they want. You will cut out pictures from a magazine of the items you desire. The desirable items could be beliefs, values, or material possessions you wish to have. This is for the person who is relatively happy, and looking to add a bonus to their life.
The second type of vision board is a bit more detailed. This board is for those who are not sure of the things that they need, but they know they want to change their life. They feel the need to change direction, or purpose. They will cut out items in the magazine that make them happy. This is an item that gives you joy in viewing. The idea is to inspire the individual to start moving in the right direction, to place things in their life that are positive. This person could have been in a period of depression, or grief.  They may know that they want to change, but are not exactly sure how to do this. This vision board is to inspire openness, and the allowing of positive energy in their life.
The third vision board is the event board. This would be for someone who is planning a big event. It is a great way to play with ideas, and build on an idea. It may be planning a wedding, or a birthday party.
     It is so beneficial to be reminded of your hopes, and dreams. It is also great to see as you go, how you have changed, and what you have gained. Keep updating, and adding to your board, as you accomplish, and grow. Above are a few examples of individual’s personal vision boards. They can be very simple, or intricate. It’s all up to you, and how you see your future. What do you envision?
