Why You Should Create a Digital Vision Board This Year

Have you made time to check-in on your goals lately? What about looking at your vision board?

Last year I decided to do a digital vision board, thinking it would make me check-in more. Spoiler alert, it didn’t work. But I was able to find something that did. I scheduled quarterly check-ins with myself. A simple but a gentle reminder to make sure I am taking the necessary steps to be the best me 🙂

Each quarter I look over my board and if I don’t feel like I am progressing, I make smaller actionable goals. Ones that I can check-off weekly until I find a comfortable way to incorporate them into my life. Setting small, specific goals has helped me focus and have a theme for the year! I journal and reflect on where I am or am not and figure out what my true barriers are. For the first time, I was pleased with my progress at check-in time! This was the first time I had a few specific goals, not abstract themes, and I think it made a big difference. Making me a priority is the best thing I’ve done all year! I feel lighter, clearer and I am getting a ton of work done in every capacity.

How To Create a Digital Vision Board:

Creating a digital vision board is super simple with the help of Canva!

• Select a template – They have vision board templates or you can create your own.
• Find photos that align with your vision and goals for the year
• Upload them to Canva and you are done

P.S. I have found a digital board to be more accessible and easier to revisit than the traditional one I kept under the bed. Once I found the pictures, it took me 5 minutes to make in Canva and save it to my phone! Going forward, I may still make vision boards with my girls, but also smaller more specific ones in digital form! Find what works for you and share it with your loved ones. We can all stand to have a few more resources to aid in becoming our best selves.
