When I moved to southern Italy from Canada with my family, I thought, “Gee my vision board was finally making sense”.
But this was only a taste of what I really wanted.
I enjoyed the Mediterranean climate and fell in love with the Amalfi Coast. This adventure was awesome, but we had to move back to Canada after 3 wonderful years. But my dream of living in a warm tropical climate was now fully installed in my DNA!
Many times you’ve heard me talk about vision boards, and the importance of identifying your dreams so that you can look at them everyday. And my story above is proof that dream boards work!
Research has shown that this type of visual reinforcement helps a person accomplish their dreams and their goals.
It’s always present, in front of you and not hidden away in your mind, a drawer or a cabinet.
I was introduced to vision/dream boards when I started my network marketing business, years ago. I still have my original one in my office on a bulletin board that I look at everyday. Over the years, I have amended and added to it, numerous times.
And ever since, I have been doing vision boards for myself, with my family, my business colleagues and my friends. It was always fun to see what people expressed in their vision.
So, for me, my board was always filled with pictures of having a second home in a sunny tropical location. I knew I loved the ocean and the sun, and wanted that in my life.
By the way, there were no pictures of me shovelling snow on my vision board!
I was determined and started to scope out locations in different countries. Covid set me back a bit in my search, but on a positive note, it helped me to be decisive.
It was now or never!
So today I am sitting in my new place in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, by the ocean, enjoying a lifestyle that is rich in culture, food and people. It is a vibe that I have been searching for all my life and I have finally found it!
And thanks to my vision board that I looked at every day, I never lost sight of it and I kept focused on achieving it.
I found a way and I made it happen… and you can too!
I’d love to talk to you about your vision, your desires, or your dreams and how you can achieve them.
You have the capability, you just have to harness your inner self to accomplish it.
Dreams really do come true if you go after them.
