Some Ideas For Your #Inspo
Here are 10 suggestions for your vision board to consider during the brainstorming phase, if you find yourself in need of inspiration. Naturally, you should aim for a wholly personalized vision board that reflects your unique goals and life plans. So, only use these ideas for #inspo!
1. Think about all the categories within your life.
Start with these ten sections: relationships, personal development, family and friends, giving and contributing, health and fitness, finances, career/business, recreation/fun, physical environment, and faith/spirituality. During the brainstorming phase, briefly explore these facets for a comprehensive view of your life in 2024. Alternatively, you can concentrate on a specific area or goal that resonates with you.
2. Identify THE quote that matches your 2024 vibe.
Sprinkle your board with quotes that make your heart do the cha-cha. These can be motivational quotes from influential figures, be it renowned personalities, cherished celebrities, or personal inspirations, to refine your mindset and bolster positive vibes on your vision board. Print these quotes in an appealing font, ensuring a daily reminder of their wisdom. Opt for optimism and realism, steering clear of negativity.
3. Think about the skills you’d like to learn in 2024.
Secretly dreaming of a life as a guitarist or an inline skater? Consider making 2024 the year to pursue those interests! Alternatively, acquiring a new skill to elevate your professional journey is a compelling option. Embracing fresh competencies not only unlocks opportunities but also ushers in new connections and financial avenues into your life. Get that dough, girlie!
4. Think about your big and small goals.
Don’t be scared to think big! Write that novel, earn that PhD, conquer the world. Now is the time to delve into the core of your ambitions. There is beauty in incremental progress, so even if your ultimate goal isn’t fully realized in 2024, taking small steps propels you significantly closer. Perhaps conquering a challenge at the gym or tackling procrastinated tasks like fixing your car door. Celebrating achievements in all endeavors generates a profound sense of success and makes your vision more achievable.
5. Think about your dream home. Visualize your dream holiday.
If you had a big cheque burning a hole in your pocket, where would you go? Consider your dream destinations as you visualize your future travels – it’s your dream board, so think expansively and avoid limitations!
As for envisioning your living space, whether or not you’re actively house-hunting, go visualize your dreams. Contemplate the color palette for your prospective bedroom or kitchen, and dream up the perfect appliances. Even if a job opportunity unexpectedly leads to a move, manifesting your dream home in 2024 becomes part of the journey.
6. Capture your new year’s resolutions.
If you’re into New Year’s resolutions, a New Year vision board is the ideal canvas. Focus on personal growth and life enhancement. For example, instead of fixating on weight loss, envision the type of body you desire: strong, fit. Envision the activities you’d love with your fit self. If your resolution involves finances, boldly place those dollar signs on your board – no shame in manifesting abundance!
7. Identify the color that represents the mood of the year.
Simplify your decision with color psychology:
– Green: Money, abundance, purity, health, freshness
– Red: Passion, energy, strength, power
– Blue: Calm, water, serenity
– Yellow: Bright, alert, analytical, happiness, joy
– Brown: Wisdom, stability
– Orange: Creativity, success, sunshine
– Pink: Gentle, love, childhood, femininity
– Purple: Spirituality, luxury, wisdom, creativity, magic
8. Hunt down the best photos.

9. Identify a word for the year.
This single word encapsulates the essence of the upcoming year, whether empowering or soothing, deeply personal or broadly resonant. While there are no strict rules, choose wisely and opt for something powerful, positive, and in the present tense!
10. Host a Vision Board Party.
Vision board parties offer a solid support system and a chance to amplify the positive vibes surrounding your individual vision board. Before the year concludes, plan a get-together with your best friends or significant other to create your vision boards collectively.
While each board should uniquely represent your upcoming year, your friends might provide valuable insights on design, colors, or goals. Someone might excel at design, while another crafts beautiful inspirational quotes. Regardless, vision boarding together is bound to be a blast. So, gather your squad, add some wine and brownies, and party on.
