Creating a roadmap: a new kind of ‘en-vision’ board

Years ago, I attended a vision board workshop, filling my blank page with magazine clippings—images, words and phrases that resonated with me. A few years later, I was invited to another workshop involving more of the same—aspirations I hoped for, encouraging expressions, go get ‘ems. Yet neither instance presented any tangibles for me to strive toward. Eventually, I lost my “vision.” This year I started thinking: a vision is a noun, a thing. So what happens if I make a subtle mindset shift—one that revolves around a verb, an action? I experimented by choosing, with intention, images that speak into those dreams on my heart. Concrete goals. And I came up with what I call an “en-vision” board. As I shared with subscribers in my January email, I began 2022 without clear direction. But now a roadmap hangs in a prominent spot above my desk. A visual reminder of what I’m doing and why—and letting the how take care of itself.

Do you “envision?”
