Hi there,
Happy New Year! I
think **this** might be the
most wonderful time of year. I had a very busy holiday
stretch, with lots of celebrating and down time. (Did it
feel to you like it went on forever)? I'm not
complaining, but I am glad to be BACK and I'm
looking forward to reconnecting with all of you!
Over the holidays I had time to update my
facebook page, create my 2009 vision board
and write my
3-year vision! I've wanted to do all these things for
awhile but really needed to feel inspired before I got
going on them. I wanted to infuse all of them with as
much love, soul and belief as I could muster!
Question for you, have you created your 2009 vision
board yet? If not, I'm here to help!
In the spirit of the New Year this week's encore
article is my well received LifeOnTrack.com's
WORLD FAMOUS, Action-Focusing, Dream-Attracting,
Power-Boosting, Success-Building Vision Board
Process. My vision board process has become
such a hit I'm being interviewed about it next week! If
you want to listen in and get a little personal
instruction you can reserve your seat here. During the
teleclass I'm going to walk listeners through my vision
board process and answer any questions that come
up. I hope you can join us!
Yes, this year is going to be amazing! Seriously, I love
this time of year and I know so many of you are ready
to get going! I am too so stay tuned...I'll be making
lots of announcements over the next several weeks!
In the meantime, why don't we
start the year by
becoming facebook friends! All you need to
do is click on my image to the right and add me as
your friend and I'll be sure to say yes! It's a great way
to stay connected. I just updated my page with some
of my favorite photos of 2008! I invite you to take a
peek. :)
This weekend I'll be
celebrating my daughter Kasie's 13th birthday! I can't
believe my baby is going to officially enter her teenage
years! I have to say, she's doing so with gusto and
grace and I'm so proud of her. I'll have a few photos
for you next week.
Bye for now...
Love,
Cari Vollmer

LifeOnTrack.com's WORLD FAMOUS,
Action-Focusing,
Dream-Attracting, Power-Boosting, Success-Building
Vision Board Process
Ready to have a little fun?
Good, because that's exactly what you'll have as you
create a vision board that is a perfect reflection of your
dreams!
There are many, many ways to create a vision board.
Basically, a vision board is something you create to
anchor your dreams visually.
Anchors are important because they serve as
reminders of what we most want and what we hold
most dear.
The LifeOnTrack.com Vision Board process is simple,
unique and powerful. Here's what you'll need for
supplies:
Poster board in the color of your choice
Old magazines
A nice picture of yourself you can duplicate
Pens, markers, and other things to "accessorize" your
board
Computer and printer
Scissors, glue and tape
Process
1. Get grounded. Take a few deep, relaxing breaths
and feel yourself growing calm, open and inspired.
2. Imagine your best life. What are your hopes and
dreams for your future...let's say three years from
now? Imagine your ideal life (including business) in
as much detail as possible for all the KEY areas of
your life; home, family, career, spiritually, health,
money, fun. Allow these images to flood your mind
and sweep through your body. You should feel really
good right now!
3. Now, with your eyes still closed, imagine
your life this year. What are your wishes for the next 12-
15 months? What do you need to do to create those
wishes?
4. Open your eyes. Look at your vision board and
imagine it has three sections. One section is for BE.
One is for DO. The other for HAVE.
5. At this point you can begin putting your vision board
together. You can place your Be, Do, and Have
sections on the board wherever you like.
BE Section
6. The power of your board is in your BE section.
Vision boards aren't only about what you WANT.
They're also about who you need to BE to get what you
want. In fact, that needs to come first and may be the
largest section of the three.
For example: Do you want your business to be wildly
successful? Then how must you BE to attract
success? Confident? Love-filled?
Abundant-minded?
Cut out words that reflect the BEING state that will
attract good fortune your way. Happy, Peaceful,
Abundant, Power-filled, Friendly, Forgiving, Joy-filled,
Purpose-filled, Successful, Balanced, etc.
Also cut out images that anchor your words. On my
vision board I use images such as lotus flowers to
symbolize wisdom and gold coins to symbolize
abundance in wealth.
DO Section
7. What's the DO section about? ACTION!
Your DO section should reflect the 3-5 things you can
DO this year to create the life you most want.
Do you want better health? Cut out pictures of
someone exercising. Do you want more friends in
your life? Cut out pictures of people that look like the
friends you'd like to have.
Now, to add a little fun and energy to your board take
the photograph of yourself, copy it several times and
then cut out just your head. I know, it sounds funny!
Paste your head on all of your DO images.
On my board I have a picture of me speaking to large
groups of people, as well as a stock photo of a
woman with her arms open wide receiving all the
good fortune that comes her way. If you look close
you'll see I pasted my head on her body! OK, I must
admit this looks hysterical BUT the great thing is it
helps me see myself actually DOING what I want to
do! After seeing yourself, over and over again, taking
the kind of actions that will yield results your
subconscious will start believing it. When that
happens...you'll be off and running!
HAVE Section
8. Your HAVE section is all about the things you
WANT. More money, vacations, hardwood floors, fun
with friends, cozy family time, etc.
Putting It All Together
Here's what's cool: When your vision board is
complete you'll see how everything on your board
works together. Your BE's will align with your DO's,
your DO's will align well with your HAVE's and so forth.
This alignment is important because it will be hard to
get what you want if the whole of you - your being and
your doing - isn't aligned with what you want.
Helpful Tips
· Keep it simple. The more simple the more focused
you'll be. With that said, don't leave anything off your
board if you really want it! Is there a new home in your
future? Find a picture of your ideal home. Even if it's a
few years away keep the dream of your new home in
front of you.
· Edit. Before you tape or paste anything on your board
arrange it and then do a quick edit. Check to see that
your board looks good and more importantly feels
good to you. Take a day or two and see if anything's
missing and then add to your board if there is.
· Use words and images. If you can't find the words
and images you need in magazines use your
computer to write out the words you want in the color
and style you want. That's what I did. It only takes a
minute to do so and it will add a lot of authenticity to
your board.
· Embellish your vision board with extras. For
example: add 3 dimensional objects such as gold
coins, feathers, seashells, rhinestones, or anything
else that symbolizes the life you want to live.
· Be specific. If your dream house is a one-story
rambler don't put a picture of a 2-story walkout. The
universe likes specifics!
· Keep it very personal. Your vision board is for your
eyes only. You only need to share it if you want to. You
never want to be in a position where you need to make
excuses for your vision board or apologize for it. Some
people won't get it. That's their problem, not yours!
· Look at your board often! Once a day isn't too much!
· When you look at your board visualize yourself
BEING, DOING, and HAVING everything on your board
in detail and with feeling! Your board is something that
will help you visualize the life you want in greater
detail. The universe likes detail!
When you're done with your vision board take a picture
of it and send me a copy! I'd love to see your work of
art!
