Vision boards are one of the most powerful ways to visualize your goals and keep you focused. If you have been setting goals or studying my materials on goal-setting, chances are you have started, or want to create, a vision board.

After all, just like Hollywood directors use storyboards to map out their blockbuster films, you can now create a vision board that, like the lens of a new HD camera, focuses close-up on you as the starnot the extrain your own extraordinary life story.

Everything thats coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And its attracted by virtue of the images youre holding in your mind. Its what youre thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you. Your vision board reinforces your positive images and enables you to attract the best possible in life. The images you plant in your mind instantly set up an attractive force, which governs the results in your life. Vision is the key connector between ones daily goals and ones lifetime purpose.

Its my pleasure to write the foreword to The Vision Board , an invaluable guide in your visioning process. This very informative and easy-to-follow guide finally takes the mystery out of the vision board creation process and opens the way for you to practice the law of attraction as you ask, believe, and receive your visions.

Most people are extras in their own movie.

The will is the mental faculty that gives you the ability to hold one idea on the screen of your mind to the exclusion of all outside distractions.
