As we approach the new year, there’s no better time to set your intentions and visualize the life you want to create in the upcoming year. A vision board is more than a collage of inspiring images—it’s a powerful tool to focus your energy and remind yourself daily of your aspirations. Here is a quick guide to help you create a 2025 Vision Board.
1 - Choose your focus area. Begin by narrowing down the areas of your life you want to improve. For example:
2 - Define the success criteria for each focus area. The more specific your goals, the easier they are to visualize and hold accountable. Example:
Career: Get a new position with a 25% salary hike and work flexibility options.
Health: Lose 10 pounds by May 31, 2025, train for a 5K
Relationships: Apply to join the VEST Peer Network and connect with women professionals who want to help me succeed.
Personal Development: Commit to attending VEST sessions in 2025 with an open mind and eagerness to learn from other women. 🫶🏽
3 - Collect Inspiring Images & Quotes. Find visuals that are relevant to your goals. Use pinterest, magazines, or photographs and choose motivating quotes for each area. Add personal images, pictures of your family, fantasy vaca destination, etc.
4 - Create a Layout. A simple arrangement keeps your goals organized and trackable. Use a strong board (foam, poster board). Separate it into pieces for each focus area. Arrange images and quotes creatively, adding labels as suitable. Don't forget to make space to alter or extend as your vision grows.
