Your Vision Board A vision board is a visual representation of your future. You can create one by putting together a collage i.e. a set of pictures that collectively form a visual representation of how you would like your future to be. A vision board can be useful as part of your career and life journey. It is a way of visualising and analysing what it is that you want and where it is that you want to get to. You can then start working on establishing how best to get there. To start creating your vision board take a look at the following steps: 1. Pick a moment in time in the future, that you would like to focus your vision board around. This could be a key date or milestone e.g. a significant birthday, or perhaps a certain period of time e.g. 5 or 10 years from now. 3. If you have a partner, you may wish to develop your vision board together. Once created, you can use it to explore the following: • What type of future do you want? • What does this mean for your work? • What might you need to do in order to make this vision a reality? • What kind of future is your partner looking for? • What does this mean for both of you? 2. Build up a picture of the world that you want to be living in at that date. You can use pictures that you cut out from magazines, print off from the Internet or in other brochures that you may like. Note: If you choose to use pictures/ images of people, it is often better to use them of people of the requisite age (not their current age). Note: Don’t worry about making a beautiful vision board. The process of mapping out your future and discussing it with your partner if you have one is valuable in itself. It can open up conversations and help you to get clearer about what it is that you really want in the longer term and how you might want to make that happen.

Your Vision Board

A vision board is a visual representation of your future. You can create one by putting together a collage i.e. a set of pictures that collectively form a visual representation of how you would like your future to be.

A vision board can be useful as part of your career and life journey. It is a way of visualising and analysing what it is that you want and where it is that you want to get to. You can then start working on establishing how best to get there. To start creating your vision board take a look at the following steps:

1. Pick a moment in time in the future, that you would like to focus your vision board around. This could be a key date or milestone e.g. a significant birthday, or perhaps a certain period of time e.g. 5 or 10 years from now.

3. If you have a partner, you may wish to develop your vision board together. Once created, you can use it to explore the following: •  What type of future do you want? •  What does this mean for your work? •  What might you need to do in order to make this vision a

reality? •  What kind of future is your partner looking for? •  What does this mean for both of you?

2. Build up a picture of the world that you want to be living in at that date. You can use pictures that you cut out from magazines, print off from the Internet or in other brochures that you may like.

Note: If you choose to use pictures/images of people, it is often better to use them of people of the requisite age (not their current age).

Note: Don’t worry about making a beautiful vision board. The process of mapping out your future and discussing it with your partner if you have one is valuable in itself. It can open up conversations and help you to get clearer about what it is that you really want in the longer term and how you might want to make that happen.
