One way of knowing who I really am was to build a Vision Board. It has been five years since I built my first Vision Board, and as I look at it, I can see how I was able to conquer the goals I set out to conquer. One thing that really stood out is, my brain was not able to visualize my future, and my board had mostly quotes, not a lot of pictures. It took a few months, but it was worth it; I was able to collect a wide arrangement of magazines from friends that ranged from 20 year old Rolling Stones to Newsweek, Oprah, and weekly flyers in the mail. I went through the magazines a few times and saved pictures, quotes, and some of the magazines themselves for final touches when I put it all together. It turned out to be a pretty good pile of cuttings, and it was a challenge to sort out what was going where in every area of my life I was focusing on.
It took all day to sort, organize, and go through the rest of the magazines to figure out what it was going to be when it was finished. When I was finished, I saw my life goals in front of me, waiting to act upon, and I was finally ready to move forward and into the life I visualize. It was very profound, and undeniably my true self. My subconscious was staring back at me; I was amazed at how I was able to see my inner wants and desires on a piece of cardboard. I was able to look at myself from the inside. I had no idea how effected I would feel, but one thing for sure is, I really like what I saw.
