Imagining about your career just may help you define it.
That’s what a Career Vision Board is for. It helps us identify roads that we have to take or avoid by the images that awaken inspiration in our soul. Words have their uses, but images through pictures can pack a silent but powerful impact in impressing on our hearts and minds the career dreams that are important to us .
A Career Vision Board is a visual map of what we want out of life. It’s a carefully arranged collage that is actually a wish list of the things we want to achieve. Nothing is too funny, sacred, or impossible. That’s another purpose of the Career Vision Board – it removes our own set limitations and frees us to dream.
An executive management position with a six-figure salary. A posting in a foreign city. Even the kind of corner office we’d like to inhabit. Whatever those dreams may be, we cut out or draw images that represent them and post them on the board. We can even list down the figures that we’d like to earn.
Something stirs in us when we give life to our thoughts via the posting of images, even if they are not drawn by us directly. We connect to – something - inside that in turn slowly lets loose an aspiration that will not be denied. As we see a concrete representation of our dreams, our actions are drawn toward their fulfillment. Our heart changes too, as we start to believe in the possible.
Don’t be afraid. List down your career dreams. Post those images on a board.
And place that board in a central place in your home where you can’t help but see it every single day.

Career should really start from vision and goals. Without it, you'll just be like a plank of wood drifting on the ocean with no direction.
