What is a Vision Board? 

A vision board or dream board is a collection of images that represent your goals, hopes and dreams. Dream boards are usually set up like a collage and are put somewhere where you can see them everyday. These boards are meant to help you stay on track and focused on your goals.

Seeing the things you want and the things you’re working towards will help you stay focused and remember why you’re doing what you’re doing.

It’s been said that seeing your goals everyday does change your mindset and help you stay motivated to reach your goals. It’s also said that creating a vision board is a way to manifest your dreams. 

Creating a board with all your visions and dreams helps you stay positive. Creating an online version of a dream board lets you see it every day when you turn on your computer or look at your phone. 

Make your dreams come true with your very own online dream board.

Different Types of Vision Boards

There are two main types of vision boards, you can create a physical one with a bristol board or corkboard and cut out images from a magazine, print some from your computer, or you can make a virtual one. A virtual one is done online and you can print off and put up anywhere when you’re done or keep it on your phone and laptop to see every day. More details on that soon. 

How Do I Make an Online Vision Board?

You can make a vision board online in many ways. You can use google docs, Canva, Pic Monkey, or Photoshop to name a few. Any app that you use to create digital products will do. Just change your project size to allow for you to start creating and you’re all set.

The best size for an online vision board is 8x 10.5” this is a universal size that should work when you print it out on regular-sized paper, once you have your site set up you’re going to find images that represent your goals and you’re going to paste them all on your vision board. Frame your creation and that’s it! See more detailed steps below if you are using the Canva program.

This is my favorite part. I love vision boards and dream boards, I have several, not just one. Usually I create a monthly one that I add to my desktop on my phone and laptop, then I have a big goals vision board that I print and add to a frame for my night stand, desk, and refrigerator.  The idea here is to keep your dream board or dream board in a place where you will see it everyday.
