Last Wednesday I talked about sharing a new visual process to explore the question “What do I want?”
Well, it’s a lot harder than I thought.
My vision board is hanging up in my home office and although I’ve added a few things to it, it is still very bare. Plus, the things I’ve added aren’t really calling to me. Yes, they are things I want, but not in a way I imagined things on my vision board would. I put them up mainly because the deadline I had announced was quickly approaching and I had nothing on it.
My vision board has come to not only represent the potential of exploring what I want in a visual way, but also a reflection of what is going on in my life right now.
I have decided, that although I will continue to post and share this visual journey, I need to sit with the emptiness, the not-knowing. I need to let the emptiness and open space reflected back at me from my blank vision board to remind me that I just need to be in this in-between place a little while and not push the process.
Thank you for sharing this journey with me.
Yes! Awesome idea. I made TWO smaller (more mangeable!) vision boards – one for my office and one for home. I found that using more pictures and less words worked the best for me. I’m also going to try to ‘change the landscape’ of the boards from time-to-time to keep them fresh.
For extra inspiration I went for some good-looking corkboards with custom frames on them that I picked out online at http://www.wholesalecustomframe.com/ . I’m sure there are other places as well, but this place was pretty cheapt.
