Kim Zoller led a discussion on how to visualize your career goals and future, and how making career vision boards helps bring those visualizations to life!
- Studies show that visualization can improve motivation and concentration.
- Goals come in all sizes and from any part of your life, and they are subject to change over time.
- Putting your dreams into words is the first step to bringing those goals to life.
HIGH PROFILE’S KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Planning is key. A Vision Board Checklist will help you evaluate your goals and develop an effective vision board. Please refer to the download link “Vision Board Checklist,” which was included in the event resources email from High Profile.
- The checklist helps ensure that your board is an accurate depiction of the goals and dreams in all areas of your life or a specific area.
- “Dreams without a plan are only wishes.” Any goals that are achieved are first born in your mind. Utilize the state-story-strategy method to create a useful board.
- State: Identify your physical, mental, and emotional state and make sure that you are in a positive and healthy state of mind when writing down your goals.
- Story: Your board will tell the story of your dreams, so it’s important that your story reads the way you want it to.
- Strategy: The vision board is a physical representation of your goals, but you must decide how you will make those aspirations come to life.
- Addressing your goals begins with balance. Prioritize your goals based on how important they are to you. No one can give 100% energy to every goal, so compartmentalizing based on a timeline or how important they are to you will help you achieve success.
- Create your vision plan. Great plans evolve people. Please refer to the download link “Creating Your VISION Plan” that was included in the event resources email from High Profile for the full questionnaire to develop your plan.
- Addressing things like your purpose and identity will help you better understand yourself and more able to accurately describe your goals.
- Deciding how you are going to put your plans into action will keep you on the course to achieve your goals.
- Understanding behaviors and characteristics that are hindering you from being successful is key to ensuring that you are on the right path to success.
- Your network, or people you surround yourself with, is crucial when working toward your goals. If your network is not supportive, it will be more difficult to succeed.
- Assess the aspects of your life you are hoping to improve. Whether it is physical, spiritual, financial, or other important areas of your life, understanding what you are trying to improve will help set attainable goals.
