This is a season for resetting and planning for 2026 to become your best self and achieve your dream life by the end of the year. A vision board is not just a place to put pictures; it’s more about how you feel about those pictures and what they represent. You can’t manifest with just a bunch of pictures; those pictures need to mean something.

I am going to give you a simple way to prepare the vision board that will help you get your dream life before the end of 2026 with some simple steps.

STEP ONE: KNOW WHAT YOU WANT: You need to clearly identify what you want and how you want it. Yes! Get specific. How do you envision your life? What do you want it to look like? Write it down for every area of your life; living situation, career and creative work, social life, health and wellbeing, and income. Knowing what you want will lead you to the next step.

STEP TWO: WRITE OUT HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THESE GOALS: How you feel about these goals matters a lot when manifesting.  Ask yourself? How will I feel when I achieve all these things I want? I will feel grateful. Happy, loved, etc., write it all down and imagine yourself having those feelings.

STEP THREE: LOOK FOR PICTURES THAT GO WITH YOUR DREAM: The mistake people make here is to take only one picture. The thing is, one picture alone can’t express what you want. The pictures have to tell a story, and that story has to be about you. You can use Pinterest and create different boards for different parts and segments of your life. Use as many pictures as you can that represent your dream. Remember that you are telling your personal story, so use as many as you can.

STEP FOUR: PUT THE PICTURES TOGETHER: Combine the pictures either physically or digitally. For digital, you can use Canva or any other design tool to assemble them. For physical, get a board and type everything on it. The purpose of this is for you to be able to look at this board every day. When you do, make sure to pay close attention to the pictures and the story. Imagine yourself in those pictures and how you would feel if it were happening to you. You can add some affirmations to make it stronger and more powerful.

Next year is a year of getting everything we want, and this is how I plan to approach last year. Detach and do all these things, and watch how you get everything you want.
