Hello you guys, and welcome back to another episode of the Hawgrel Energy Podcast.
0:17
I'm your host, Kayleie, and this is your weekly reminder that it's
0:20
a new day, a new week, a new mindset, and another day
0:23
for you to become the howcrel energy you want to attract. Happy Tuesday,
0:28
you guys, I'm finally uploading on the right day. These bad two weeks
0:34
of vlog miiss have been extremely busy, and if you've been following along on
0:39
my vlog miss on TikTok, you guys know that I have missed a few
0:43
days. So I've kind of been posting like every other day for a vlogmiss
0:46
honestly because my days kind of look the same. Like I'm working during the
0:51
day, I'm editing during the day, I'm filming content behind the scenes,
0:54
and there's just like nothing really exciting going on, and I just really don't
1:00
see a point in filming the same thing. Just decided to, yeah,
1:03
vlog on days where I actually have stuff going on and things that are actually
1:07
like entertaining to watch. So I think I got through fourteen days, which
1:11
I'm proud of myself for, and I'm still trying to include more of log
1:15
style videos into my TikTok, so definitely make sure to keep following along.
1:21
I'm still posting some content, but I don't know, I just like really
1:23
didn't want to be repetitive on my work days, and yeah, so I
1:27
decided just to, yeah, stop the constant day to day of log miss
1:33
and just kind of vlog here and there on days where I'm actually doing something
1:36
fun and entertaining. And obviously a lot of wedding planning has been happening behind
1:41
the scenes as well, which I obviously can't record for specific reasons, like
1:45
I don't want to give away obviously all that's happening during our weddings, so
1:49
I can't really record days where I'm having meetings with vendors, photographers, all
1:55
that. So yeah, that is kind of like another reason why I've been
1:59
kind of distant from blog miss is catching up on wedding stuff because obviously we're
2:04
going into the new year and I need to secure stuff before the end of
2:07
the year, just to make sure that I have a photographer or videographer here
2:12
and makeup all that. So like that's like my main priority to get that
2:15
done before the new year. So yeah, I've been like really really trying
2:19
to get meetings in and just get them booked and all that. So this
2:22
week specifically, I feel like everybody's always extremely busy before the holidays. Obviously,
2:27
Christmas is literally this weekend or sorry, next Monday, which is crazy
2:34
that we're already at the end of December basically, and I feel like everybody's
2:38
always so crazy this week because I think a lot of people usually take that
2:40
week off next week just to give themself a break. I'm giving myself a
2:45
break. Zach usually has that week off. I know my dad usually takes
2:47
that week off her work. So yeah, it's just usually a week where
2:52
everyone's just kind of spending time with family and trying to yeah, relax and
2:57
enjoy the last week of twenty three and then we're into the new year,
3:01
which is crazy. So this is an episode I really really wanted to make
3:07
a specific episode about, just because there's so many parts to this and I
3:10
feel like there's a lot of people out there that might not know how to
3:14
actually create a vision board properly. So I'm going to be going through the
3:17
exact steps on how to create the perfect vision board and how to achieve these
3:23
goals for yourself, like how to actually make these goals a reality for yourself
3:28
and your dream life a reality. So we're going to go through all the
3:30
steps on how to create the most ideal vision board, and this will be
3:34
a really good episode for you to listen to if you're in the current state
3:38
of creating your twenty twenty four vision board, or if you're someone that's never
3:42
created a vision board and you want to have a good idea of how to
3:44
do it, this is the perfect episode for you just to get a good
3:46
understanding on how you're going to be able to create one as well as achieve
3:51
the goals for yourself. Also quick side note before we get into this episode,
3:54
just because I have this on in the background. It's currently paused obviously
3:59
for recording, but when I get work done, I always need to have
4:01
some background noise. I don't know if anyone else is like that. I
4:04
like to have music in the background, or I like to put a TV
4:08
show on. Lately it's been putting a TV show on. I think it's
4:11
just because I work alone and I like background noise. I usually have friends
4:15
on in the background. I'm rewatching it for the fourth time, which is
4:19
crazy to say, and I've literally finished all ten seasons. I think I'm
4:24
on actually season nine right now, so I've finished nine seasons in a month,
4:29
literally a month. That's so bad. That means I'm literally playing like
4:31
I don't want to say, like six or seven episodes a day. So
4:34
yeah, but right now, I decided to pause on Friends because Zach's been
4:39
enjoying it, Like the last few episodes of season nine and season ten are
4:44
so good, So I usually only watch it when we're making dinner now that
4:46
way you can watch the episodes. But I am rewatching Vampire Diaries and I'm
4:54
so obsessed with the show right now. I have not watched Vampire Diaries,
4:58
I want to say, in like five or six years, probably five years,
5:02
which is a long time, and oh my god, it's just bringing
5:05
back so many good memories and I freaking love that show. If you guys
5:10
are team Stefan or team Damon, let me know I am personally team Stefan.
5:14
I think he's the hottest human being ever, and I freaking love him
5:17
and Elena. I just, oh my god, them is a couple is
5:20
literally my favorite thing ever. So that's just my side note, just because
5:25
I have that on the background. I've been playing it all day. I'm
5:28
on episode seven, so I've watched just seven episodes today while I've gotten work
5:32
done, which has been very enjoyable. So anyways, if you haven't watched
5:36
it, you need to watch Vampire Diaries or this is your signed to rewatch
5:40
it, just because it's that good. Okay, So now let's get into
5:44
vision board. So if you guys don't know what a vision board is,
5:46
a vision board is essentially a gallery of images that reflect your goals for the
5:53
year. So basically, picture a phone screen or a laptop screen with a
5:57
bunch of different images, but the images actually have meaning to it. It's
6:00
not just random images that you pulled from Pinterest to make it look aesthetic.
6:03
These images all have purposes and they have a purpose for you to achieve for
6:08
the new year. So that's essentially what a vision board is. So every
6:13
time going into the new year, obviously everybody has either New Year's resolutions or
6:17
goals that they want to achieve for themselves for the new year. So obviously
6:20
entering twenty twenty four, everybody's going to want to have a little reset.
6:24
They're going to want to get into a healthier lifestyle. They're going to want
6:27
to have like almost like a reset button, like I want to restart my
6:30
life. I want to get back on track, become the best version of
6:33
myself all that. So it's almost like a fresh start and starting a new
6:38
year is always the perfect opportunity to set new goals for yourself. And so
6:42
if you listen to my last episode, we talked about setting goals for yourself
6:46
in different categories. Everybody has different goals that they want to achieve for themselves
6:49
in different categories, whether it's business or school related, whether it's personal,
6:55
or it can be health and wellness. So if you need some reference for
6:58
how to structure your goals, that's a really good episode to listen to,
7:01
which was the one before this one, but this one here, we're just
7:04
going to talk about how we're going to achieve the goals that we've written down
7:08
for itself for the new year. So that's what the vision board is really
7:12
more specifically about. So, yeah, we're going into a new year.
7:15
Obviously we want to feel like a new person. We want to have a
7:18
new new year knew me. You guys know the saying, And I feel
7:21
like it's so beneficial just to have something visual, being able to see everything
7:27
that you want to achieve for yourself. I'm going to quickly go over mine
7:30
with you guys, because I feel like that's a good example. I think
7:33
I told you guys in my last episode that I achieved I want to say
7:38
at least seventy to seventy five percent of my twenty twenty three vision board,
7:42
one of them being an engagement ring, which is literally the same engagement ring
7:46
I have on my venturess board, which is crazy. Another weird thing that
7:49
I added on my vision board was a aries baby cake. I really wanted
7:55
to have a cute saying on my birthday cake, and I really want it
7:58
to be unique and different, and the exact image is actually on my vision
8:03
board, just in different colors. This one's black. The one that I
8:05
got was like a vanilla cream color with pink, but same saying, same
8:11
type of shape of the cake. So that's really cool to look back at
8:15
and see that I actually did achieve this for myself. This one is kind
8:18
of creepy. And my health of Ononless goals really was just to stay on
8:22
track with my routine, have a consistent workout, schedule trying out new workout
8:26
classes, and this specific photo that is on my vision board, it's a
8:30
girl at a Revolve event in La at this heated pilate studio called Heated back
8:39
in Coachella. So in April, trin Land and I went to a workout
8:45
class with Tatcha. You guys know the brand Tatcha, It's a skincare brand.
8:48
We went to the heated class and it was the exact room of this
8:52
exact image on my vision board. So this girl that I pulled from Pinterest
8:56
is sitting in this room, and I have a picture of my in this
9:01
exact room, which is so creepy. And it's funny because I think we
9:07
recorded a podcast with Tren and Land back in LA for Trend's podcast The Wellness
9:11
Cafe, I'm pretty sure, and Tren literally picked that out, Like I
9:15
didn't even notice that Trend and I were looking at my vision board. I
9:18
think we were talking about just vision boards and manifestation in the episode, and
9:22
Trend was like, KILLI, I'm pretty sure that's the studio we were at
9:26
today, and it clicked that it actually was the exact same So I'm gonna
9:30
try and do a video on TikTok or Instagram of showing my vision board versus
9:33
my real life, and it's just really creepy just to see this exact room
9:39
that I was in, Just that blows my mind, Like that's never been
9:43
so specific on my vision board before, so that is pretty crazy. Just
9:48
being able to travel more. That image here is just like an airplane in
9:52
the clouds. I feel like I have like literally the exact same image in
9:56
my camera role, just from traveling a lot this year. I really wanted
10:01
to have my office done. Didn't get that done, but a lot of
10:05
the components in this picture, including the desk in the chair, I actually
10:07
have in my storage room right now, just don't have it out. So
10:11
being able to create my dream office is definitely something Zach and I are doing
10:15
for our December break, So that week long break next week, we're going
10:18
to be focusing on doing my office, which will be really fun to film
10:22
and show you guys the transformation. We're like redoing the floors. I don't
10:28
know if we'll paint the office. I feel like I don't need to paint
10:30
it. As long as it's white and it looks nice. I feel like
10:33
that's all that matters, But it's going to be like my little workout studio
10:35
along with my office, just having a space to record my podcast. Like
10:39
right now, I literally record the podcast in my kitchen. I have no
10:43
space to really do it. So being able to have a closed in space
10:48
just for me to record the podcast will be really really nice. As well
10:52
as just having like an office setup to do my work. I feel like
10:54
I'm constantly just moving throughout the main floor of my house and I really just
10:58
want to be in one place and being able to get all my work done
11:01
would be the most ideal situation. So yeah, so those are just certain
11:05
things that I can pull from my Oh here's another one. I wanted to
11:09
reach a million downloads on my podcasts and we're almost at I think we're over
11:16
three million now, so definitely achieve that this year, which is beyond crazy
11:20
to me that there's over three million downloads, which yeah, I'm completely speechless
11:24
about. So yeah, just like little things like that I just can see
11:28
from this right now, or some of the things that I did achieve for
11:31
myself. The other ones are more so just images of like travel which I
11:35
did, like going to Coachella, which I did. You know, traveling
11:39
with friends, which I did, engagement photos which I did. A lot
11:43
of these goals were also house related. I really wanted to get a lot
11:45
of house projects done, just like random goals like that. And then professionally,
11:48
as I said, with my podcasts and then my platforms, still continuing
11:52
to grow and just gaining a new audience by getting you know, new supporters,
11:56
whether you guys listen to my podcasts, follow my social media. It's
11:58
just always so nice to have new faces and new supporters throughout my journey that
12:03
I'm always beyond grateful for. And I feel like this one's kind of obvious,
12:07
and I feel like this is something that everybody wants, is just being
12:09
able to, you know, have an increase in finances, like being able
12:13
to maybe make a bit more money than you did last year, or just
12:16
be able to call yourself in a good financial situation, you know what I
12:20
mean, Like being stable with your finance is obviously a goal that I think
12:24
everybody wants to achieve for themselves. So yeah, I feel like that's a
12:28
common goal that people like to say. So that's definitely something that I feel
12:30
like I did a good job out this year as well. Working hard and
12:33
just being successful at what I do is so important to me. And yeah,
12:37
so the new year, I feel like it's going to be a lot
12:39
about focusing on my brand, which I told you guys about, but also
12:41
I really want to get more into events, meaning I really want to see
12:46
you guys. I really want to travel within Canada, within Europe, within
12:50
the States and really meet you guys face to face, whether it's just going
12:54
on Hawk Girl walks together or even you know, booking a workout studio and
12:58
being able to invite you guys and we can do a workout class together.
13:01
I put a poll on my Instagram story, not on my podcast, but
13:03
on my personal account seeing how many of you guys were based in Ottawa,
13:07
and I was shocked to see the amount of people from Ottawa that actually follow
13:11
me. I was not expecting that number at all. So I will be
13:15
hosting an event in Ottawa in the new year. I have to talk to
13:18
a few companies in order to make this happen. I really want to host
13:22
a workout class. Whether it's going to be a spinning class or maybe a
13:26
pilates class, I'm not sure yet, but I want to have some fun
13:28
stuff going on. Maybe we can do it on like a Friday night,
13:33
have some drinks going, you know. I just wanted to be like a
13:35
fun vibe. So we're gonna definitely do something like that in the new year.
13:39
And I thought it's a perfect opportunity because you know, everybody wants to
13:41
try new workout classes and just do workouts in general in the new year,
13:46
So yeah, I thought it could be a fun way to start the new
13:50
year off. So anyway, so that was some of the goals that I
13:52
achieved for myself from my twenty twenty three vision boards. So I love creating
13:56
vision boards for that reason. Is just seeing how much which you've achieved for
14:01
yourself through these images that you've put as your laptop background or your phone screensaver.
14:05
I always have my vision board like in my eesight at all times,
14:11
or even describe on how to create one. Know that when you do create
14:16
one, I think it's mandatory to make it as your screensaver or your iPhone
14:20
background, because that's what's going to remind you the things that you need to
14:24
achieve for yourself. So that's what you need to do now. I have
14:26
seen a few people also create vision boards that have not been digital, it's
14:31
been on a campus. If you guys don't want a canvas is it's almost
14:35
like a massive painting canvas. It's called a canvas and you can cut images
14:41
that you've printed off your printer from the computer, or you could get magazines
14:45
and cut images out of the magazines and stick it on your campus and then
14:48
maybe hang it up in your room or in your office or somewhere in your
14:52
space. That could also help remind you to see the goals that you want
14:56
to achieve for yourself. So I have seen people make a fun night out
15:00
of this with their girlfriends where they all bring their canvas boards, magazines or
15:03
images that they printed out that they found from Pinterest. They cut them out,
15:07
they paste it onto their canvas, and they create a cute little art
15:11
piece for their space. That seems like a really fun idea, and it
15:15
seems like a really fun girls night to have a making visions boards night.
15:20
I personally like doing it online because, as I said, I like to
15:22
have it as my phone screensaver or laptop just because I'm always constantly on a
15:28
screen for my job. So personally I prefer digital. But you can also
15:33
do it that way if you would prefer to do it with a canvas.
15:35
Okay, so here we go. Let's get into creating a vision board.
15:39
So step one writing at your goals and adding the description of photos you would
15:43
like to describe that goal. So, for example, if you've already written
15:46
out your goals for three different categories, you're now going to look at those
15:50
goals and figure out what's the best image that would describe this goal. So,
15:52
for an example, if one of your goals is to finish school,
15:56
maybe you could find a picture of someone graduating. Or if you want to
16:02
get a job a new job, maybe get an image of an office building
16:04
or somebody with a cute office outfit that looks super professional, has our shit
16:10
together. So you find like a really nice girl and a really nice work
16:12
outfit that looks like she's got her shit together. Another thing could be you
16:17
maybe listening to more podcasts or going on more Hawk girl walks. You could
16:21
find an image of a girl walking with headphones outside. That was actually another
16:26
image that I can think of on my vision board that I have like a
16:29
zillion photos of me with my AirPod pro maxes, just going on how girl
16:33
walks this summer which was something I really wanted to prioritize, was just getting
16:37
my daily walks in. So yeah, so like that's a good reference for
16:41
an image if you're wanting to increase your Hawt Girl walks or anything like that.
16:45
But I feel like that's going to be the best way to start out
16:48
with the vision boards is really writing down all your goals in those three different
16:52
categories and then describing what you want your image to look like fromt Pinterest,
16:56
and then once you've done those certain words, you can now go on to
17:00
Pinterest and find the images you're going to search those incorporating words that you have
17:06
as your goal. So I've already said examples, but I truly do believe
17:10
that Pinterest is the best place to find any inspiration or any good photos for
17:15
your vision board. I solely use Pinterest as like my life, like Pinterest
17:21
is my main spot for inspell when it comes to my job, like I
17:25
constantly go on Pinterest for inspiration for anything. I truly believe Pinterest is honestly
17:30
like a vision board of its own constantly, So you know, Pinterest always
17:36
refers to images that you previously have said that are similar images that could meet
17:41
your vibe or anything like that. So my entire wedding planning has been off
17:44
Pinterest. I feel like that's majority of the people. But that is like
17:47
how I plan my life essentially. I don't know if anybody else is like
17:49
that, but I truly believe that Pinterest is the most amazing app out there,
17:53
Like it's way better than all the apps I've ever used. I truly
17:56
believe that it's really how you want your life to become, and it just
18:00
is a great resource for people who really try to manifest things for themselves and
18:07
yeah, just create that dream life that you want. So yeah, Pinterest
18:10
is where I get all my images from whenever I'm looking for inspo for even
18:15
getting my nails done, my hair done, like anything like that. Is
18:18
just like my main go to source. So you're gonna go to Pinterest,
18:22
You're gonna find the images that you want to put on your vision board,
18:25
and you're gonna copy and paste it. So, as I said, if
18:26
you're looking for a hawk girl walk photo, go into Pinterest, search those
18:30
exact words, find an image that you think best represents that goal, and
18:33
then copy and paste it. So one thing that I always add on my
18:37
vision board is just twenty twenty four, and I make the numbers just look
18:41
aesthetic and cute, and I usually put that in the center, and then
18:44
I put my images in like different corners of the paper or of the template.
18:51
So you know, one corner, I'll make it more health and wellness
18:53
related, and then in the other corner I'll make it more personal, and
18:56
then the two bottom corners I'll make it more like business professional images. That
19:02
way, it all flows nicely, and the goals are kind of structured in
19:04
the same area. It's not like it's scattered everywhere. Another thing you can
19:08
use besides images is you can also use quotes or sayings that you want to
19:14
remind yourself of throughout the new year. So if you don't want to do
19:18
a canvas, which I said, if you don't want to do a hard
19:22
visual copy where you don't want to cut the images out on magazines or just
19:26
cut printed images that you print it out, you can use a template that
19:29
is free on the internet. So the main thing that I've been using for
19:33
the past three years of creating my vision board, it's free. It's called
19:37
Canva. I absolutely love it. I actually use Campa for a lot of
19:40
my work things as well, whether I'm creating giveaway stories that I'm putting on
19:44
Instagram as my photoshop tool or my YouTube thumbnails. It's just a great resource
19:49
to use if you're someone that likes to do photoshop and doesn't want to have
19:53
to pay a monthly fee. Canvas really really good for that. So you
19:56
go into Campa and they're going to ask you what temple size you want,
20:00
so it will tell you if you want like an iPhone wallpaper or a laptop
20:04
desktop screen, anything like that. It's gonna give you different templates and you
20:07
can pick either or I think what I did is I copy and pasted like
20:12
I did my vision board on my wallpaper background first as that template, and
20:17
then I copy and pasted the exact vision board twice, and then I just
20:22
changed the template size so I didn't have to like redo it twice and just
20:25
like made the images bigger for my laptop desktop. So once you have that
20:29
template selected, you're then gonna start creating the vision board. So you're gonna
20:32
start uploading the images that you saved from Pinterest onto Canba, play around with
20:36
it, position them in the places that you would like. I also like
20:38
to put the main goals that are like my main focus for the year,
20:41
closer to the middle where the twenty twenty four is, because I feel like
20:45
that's like the most eye catching area and it's also the most visually appealing area.
20:49
So yeah, that's simply how I structure the goals on my vision board.
20:55
Now let's talk about how we're going to achieve these goals. So this
20:57
is the whole vision board process. I've kind of already explained it, what
21:00
you have to do all that, But how are we going to actually achieve
21:03
these goals for yourself? How we actually going to make this happen for the
21:07
new year. So I think the main thing is prioritizing your goals. So
21:11
what's the most important one out of every single one for each category? So,
21:15
as I said, making the ones that are the biggest priority in the
21:18
center and then putting you know, the least prioritized ones in the other areas
21:22
of the vision board. So when you wrote out your goals, I think
21:25
it's important to rank them from most important to least important. So making sure
21:30
that you have that down in that order, I feel like helps you realize,
21:34
like what is the bigger priority for you? And then I also think
21:37
it needs to develop a plan and break them down. So how are you
21:41
going to achieve that goal for yourself? What are you going to be doing
21:42
throughout the year to actually get to that goal. So essentially you're going to
21:45
be breaking down the goal into steps. So taking these steps to get to
21:48
this main goal is your biggest priority now. I also want to mention that,
21:53
you know, I feel like a lot of people put the pressure on
21:55
themselves that they need to make sure that they get all their goals for the
21:59
year done at the beginning of the year. That is not the case at
22:02
all. If you think of goals throughout the year that you want to achieve
22:04
for yourself, obviously things change, plans change, It's totally normal. I
22:08
always like to do monthly goals for myself, So every time we enter a
22:11
new month, I write monthly goals that I want to achieve for myself and
22:15
usually sometimes they're different than the goals that I wrote for the beginning of the
22:18
year. So that is okay. Do not put that stress on yourself.
22:22
I think at the end of the day, you can change or add goals
22:26
whatever you'd like throughout the year. There's no pressure at all to also start
22:30
a vision board. You know, four months into the year, three months
22:32
into the year, It does not matter, as long as you're going out
22:34
of your way to make this a priority for yourself. That's the biggest thing
22:37
is being able to put yourself first and try to make these goals a reality
22:41
for yourself. So yeah, please don't put the pressure on yourself that you
22:45
think you have to get all this done at the beginning of January. I
22:47
should have highly that in the beginning, but everybody is, you know,
22:51
on their own path and they're on their own journey, and know that no
22:53
matter what the time frame is or what the timeline is, you can start
22:57
goals whenever you want out. I just want to highlight that because, yeah,
23:00
I feel like people have that pressure and I don't want you guys to
23:03
have that pressure. The next thing we're going to be doing in order to
23:06
achieve these goals for yourself is the motivation. The biggest thing to achieving your
23:11
goals is having motivation. If you can't motivate yourself to achieve goals, it's
23:15
going to be very difficult to achieve them. You need to be your own
23:18
motivator. You need to push yourself, you need to have things to constantly
23:22
motivate you. What are those things going to be? Maybe having reminders your
23:25
vision board, always being your motivator by reminding yourself that this is what I
23:29
want to achieve for myself and having that as your wallpaper or as your lock
23:32
screen or anything like that. That's what's going to remind yourself that this is
23:36
what I want to do for myself. And that's honestly the best motivator to
23:40
get yourself to achieve those little things and also little rewards for yourself, like
23:45
if you notice that you've achieved one of the small goals on your vision board,
23:48
make sure to treat yourself with those things, whether it's getting yourself a
23:52
coffee or just make any little goal a celebration. So another thing that I
23:56
think I mentioned last year in my podcast, I saw some one talk about
24:00
this about a podcast. I believe it was from Jay I forgot his last
24:04
name right now. He has a very successful podcast. Anyways, he talked
24:10
about in his New Year episode that I listened to last year about writing down
24:14
every time you achieve something for yourself throughout the year. So you know,
24:17
let's say you got promoted with your job, write that down on a piece
24:21
of paper and then you put it in a jar. And then at the
24:22
end of the year, you can look back at all the things that you
24:25
achieve for yourself, and it's little moments that you might not even think about,
24:29
Like just as I said, like getting a promotion, like you know,
24:32
seven months from then, you might be like, oh, it's not
24:33
a big deal. But then when you look back at that on a sticky
24:36
note, you'd be like, Wow, that was really cool, Like I'm
24:38
really happy that I got that promotion and now I'm here, I'm so happy
24:41
on how far I've came from that. So it's really important to reward yourself
24:47
and remind yourself those little goals that you did achieve for yourself throughout the year.
24:51
That's what's going to continue to motivate yourself to keep going and keep achieving
24:56
those goals for yourself. Also important to have people around you that constantly motivate
24:59
you. You family, friends, loved ones, obviously influencers potentially. I
25:04
love to follow people who motivate me to do what I love and to do
25:07
my job. I personally don't follow people who don't have any type of inspirational
25:15
content, like for me, I don't want to follow someone that you know
25:18
might put me in a negative headspace or just doesn't follow my beliefs or just
25:22
anything like that. Like, I want to follow influencers that motivate me to
25:26
be productive, to live a healthy lifestyle, to just yeah, be my
25:32
most authentic self, if that makes sense. So I truly believe that people
25:36
who you follow can also be a huge impact on who motivates you to achieve
25:38
things for yourself. I think another thing when it comes to achieving your goals
25:42
is identifying obstacles. So ask yourself, what is preventing myself from getting to
25:47
this goal? There might be things that you never thought about that's actually in
25:49
your way to achieving the goal for yourself. So this is another thing that
25:52
I would recommend writing down figuring out, Okay, what are these obstacles that
25:56
are you know, challenging me to not achieve this goal for myself. Well,
26:00
write down those challenges, write down those fears that you would encounter that
26:03
would prevent you from achieving that goal. So I feel like something like that
26:06
is going to be super super beneficial when achieving your goals. Is just making
26:10
sure that there's no obstacles that are going to be getting in the way.
26:12
You don't want to look back at the end of the year and be like,
26:14
oh, this was a huge issue, Like why didn't I see this
26:17
coming, or why didn't I try to remove this obstacle from my life in
26:21
order to achieve that for myself. So really review what is challenging you from
26:26
getting to that end goal and make it a priority to find ways to remove
26:30
it. That way, you can obviously achieve the goal for yourself. Okay,
26:34
next thing is be realistic, So remember to write goals that are truly
26:38
realistic to you develop a plan making sure that all the steps that you've written
26:44
down are realistic to you achieving that goal for yourself at the end. But
26:47
also, you know what, set some unrealistic goals as well. There's nothing
26:51
wrong with that, like go big. You never know what could happen.
26:53
Big dreams can happen, but I would make majority of them realistic just so
26:59
that at the end of the year you can feel well accomplished and it makes
27:00
you more motivated to start another vision board. Right Like, I personally feel
27:04
like if I wasn't achieving anything on my vision board the following year, I
27:07
probably wouldn't have created another vision board. I probably would have been like,
27:11
that's a bunch of crap that never even worked. But because every single year
27:15
my vision board has been so successful for my actual life, I continue to
27:19
do so because it's a good motivator for me to continue achieving goals for myself.
27:23
So make them realistic, making sure that it fits within your current lifestyle,
27:27
but also write some things that could be a little unrealistic, because you
27:32
know, dream big. Let's be de lulu, let's be able to conquer
27:37
things that we really want to achieve yourself, and you never know, some
27:40
of these unrealistic things could actually happen. As long as you have a good
27:42
step by step plan on how to achieve that for yourself, you can make
27:47
big things happen. I think one important thing when it comes to achieving goals
27:51
for yourself, and I'm making this the last one for that specifically, is
27:55
making sure you're going back reflecting and seeing any adjustments that need to be made.
27:59
So I think it's important every month to check in on your vision board
28:03
and making sure that you are sticking to those goals that you want to achieve
28:06
for yourself. I personally feel like with my vision board. I probably checked
28:08
in at least five times this year. I wouldn't say I did every single
28:12
month, but I definitely reviewed my goals throughout the year to making sure that
28:17
I was trying to achieve those bigger goals for myself and those little goals for
28:19
myself, and making sure that I was taking the right steps to do that
28:23
for myself. So it's like, what am I doing wrong that I can
28:26
achieve this one goal? Like what can I do to actually achieve that goal
28:30
before the end of the year. Is there any steps that I can take
28:32
to get to that end goal? So making sure you take time to reflect,
28:36
adjust, and remind yourself to achieve goals for yourself is very very important
28:41
in order to achieve the end goals. So those are kind of the things
28:45
that I personally would recommend when it comes to actually being able to achieve your
28:49
goals. Is prioritizing your goals, develop a plan as well as find ways
28:56
to motivate yourself to achieve the goals for yourself, identify the optacle, be
29:00
realistic, but also kind of be de Lulu and be unrealistic, and also
29:03
reflect and adjust. Those would be the biggest tips when it comes to achieving
29:08
those things for yourself. But that's essentially how you create a vision board.
29:12
There's not much more to explain. I think at the end of the day,
29:17
you need to take the time out of your day spend an hour or
29:21
two just going through the goals that you want to achieve for yourself of the
29:23
year, finding images, creating that vision board for yourself, and I'm telling
29:27
you right now, you will not regret it. You will feel so motivated
29:30
to have the best life, to have the best year, being able to
29:34
achieve things for yourself to make yourself feel good. There's so many amazing pros
29:38
to having a vision board, and I truly, truly do believe that it
29:41
works. It really does work. It really allows you to create your dream
29:45
life and manifest things for yourself that you never thought in a million years could
29:51
happen. But being able to have a vision board reflect remind yourself that you
29:55
can do these things for yourself is truly the best feeling and the best way
30:00
to motivate yourself to have the best year yet. So yeah, I hope
