The Simplest Way To Create Vision Board Worksheets

Worksheets allow for more efficiency in goal-setting because they help you compartmentalize your tasks, giving you more focus, direction, and guidance.  But is it an effective tool for manifesting your dreams?

In this article, we’ll tackle what vision board worksheets are, how to make one for your personal vision boards, as well as the main goal of a worksheet in your path to transforming mere dreams into reality.

SELF-AWARENESS AS THE MAIN GOAL OF A DREAM BOARD WORKSHEET

When you read the word, “worksheet,” what automatically comes to mind?  Work, right?  You need to answer questions, write them down, think of answers, and basically it takes work.  But it’s not all for nothing.

A worksheet can help you develop self-awareness.  Questions are formed to make you become more self-aware of your thoughts, biases, attitudes, and even your behavior.  By answering questions and doing tasks, you can become more self-conscious about your own strengths and weaknesses.

  STATISTICS ON SELF-AWARENESS

Studies have shown the many positive outcomes of a self-aware person.  Let’s take a look at some of the statistics:

• Studies show that people who are more self-aware are 50% more likely to have stable marriages.
• In a 2010 study, researchers found that self-awareness increases success by a whopping 600%.
• A Green Peak Partner study revealed that companies that have a self-aware leader have an average of 186% higher ROI.
• Students who become self-aware increase their academic achievements by 11%.
• People who practice self-awareness exercises experience an 18% increase in goal achievement and life satisfaction.

These numbers show the many good things that come to life when you become more self-aware.  Generally, you improve your life, you achieve your goals better, and you experience more success.

A worksheet can help you do that by allowing you to practice introspection about your values, thoughts, passions, advocacies, and all the things that make you strong and even weak, so you can address your issues.

Self-awareness is the main goal of a vision board worksheet.

  WHAT IS SELF-AWARENESS?

But what is self-awareness?  Self-awareness is the ability to gain insight into your inner self.  It gives you insight into your own thoughts, beliefs, values, emotions, and behaviors.  It is the conscious act of recognizing yourself, which also includes your biases, your triggers, and even your limitations.

Research shows that when you are more self-aware, you see yourself more clearly, and therefore, you are more creative and confident.

There are also two types of awareness, which are internal and external:

INTERNAL SELF-AWARENESS

This is defined by how clearly you see yourself, which includes your aspirations, passions, and values.  Studies have shown that people who have a high internal self-awareness are associated with higher job and relationship satisfaction.  It is also associated with personal and social control, and even related to happiness.

Studies have also shown that it lowers anxiety, stress, and depression.

EXTERNAL SELF-AWARENESS

External self-awareness is defined as your understanding of how others see you.  It has been found that those who have a high external awareness show high levels of empathy and consideration for other people’s perspectives.

In terms of leadership, it is known that leaders with high external self-awareness contribute to better relationships with subordinates.  Employees tend to feel more satisfied in the workplace and see the employer or leader as being more effective.

When it comes to vision board worksheets, the main goal is to have higher self-awareness to improve one’s level of success and satisfaction in life.  But if you’re a leader, a worksheet can also help you develop and improve your external awareness.

  BENEFITS OF SELF-AWARENESS FOR MANIFESTING YOUR GOALS

Here are the benefits of self-awareness when it comes to manifesting your goals:

1. CLARIFIES YOUR PURPOSE

Questions in a worksheet are typically created to help you identify your goals, passions, and dreams.  This means self-awareness can help you acknowledge what you really want in life.

2. BOOSTSMOTIVATION

It also helps you understand the actions and attitudes you have about your goals.  It gives you perspective on why you’re doing what you do to accomplish your goals.  It also helps you eliminate behavior that’s not aligned with your values.

3. IMPROVED EFFECTIVENESS OF ACTION PLANS

Because you have a clearer picture of your genuine passions, it can help you create action plans that resonate with accomplishing your goals.

4. FOSTERS PERSONAL GROWTH

And most of all, because worksheets help you identify your strengths and weaknesses, they help you realize what you’re good at, and the things you’re not so good at.  So you end up working on your weaknesses and improving your strengths.

Vision board worksheets are an important part of your Law of Attraction journey because it is a simple way of getting to know your authentic self.  And your authentic self is a reflection of the vibrational frequency you emit into the world.  Whatever energy you release, it is the energy that you attract.

Being self-aware allows you to understand why you’re not achieving your goals, and what you must do to unblock your blessings.

THE ELEMENTS OF AN EFFECTIVE VISION BOARD WORKSHEET

Before we talk about how to make a vision board worksheet, let’s first understand the essential elements of one:

1. GOOD LAYOUT

A study on teaching tools in academics shows that the efficiency of worksheets relies on the design.  Layout principles of COLA (contrast, orientation, lettering, and artwork) are said to be efficient when it comes to successfully transmitting information to students.

So before you make your worksheet, try to study good layout design to ensure you’ll be making something that’s efficient in your goals.

2. IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

What are you trying to unravel or reveal in yourself when making your vision board worksheet?  Craft smart questions that help you become more self-aware.  The questions you have on the worksheet are also as important as the layout.

3. ORGANIZED DESIGN

You also need to have an organized design to ensure you are getting all bases covered.  Put pictures in one area, affirmations in another, and other important sections of a worksheet in their designated spots.

We’ll talk about more of these in the following section.

HOW TO CREATE A VISION BOARD WORKSHEET FOR BETTER MANIFESTATION

Now that you know why it’s important to use a vision board worksheet, as well as why creating an efficient one is important in your path to manifesting your dreams, it’s time we make a personal and customized worksheet for our dreams:

1. LOOK AT EXAMPLES

If you don’t know where to start, it’s a good idea to look at vision board templates available online.  See what the layout looks like, what are the elements of the worksheet, and what aesthetics are being used.

You can also get free vision board templates from The Vision Cloud.  Get your free-to-download templates by clicking on this link.

The brand believes that everything is possible, and that is why they’re on a mission to help you make things happen.

2. ADD QUESTIONS

Create questions that help you bring out your authentic self.  Make them specific, and open-ended, and avoid leading questions. Add these to your worksheet.

3. SPACE TO ADD IMAGES

You must also add space to put images.  Don’t make it too big as you don’t want to make a collage.  You want to create sections of significant pictures of your goals and dreams.  A good 4 to 6 pictures on one page is good enough.

4. AFFIRMATIONS

Create a section where you can add affirmations and quotes that resonate with you, and align with your goals.

5. ACTION PLANS

A goal without action is simply a wish.  So create an action plan on how you’re going to achieve your goals.  Create space in the worksheet for this plan.

6. MILESTONES

And lastly, create sections where you can put milestones.  Milestones are mini-targets you need to achieve to get to your big goal.  Achieving small goals will help you stay motivated to run after your dreams.

Milestones can also help you track your progress, so you can see how far you’re going and how close you are to your goals.

Vision board worksheets allow you to develop the self-awareness that’s needed to achieve success.  Without this, you’ll always wonder why some dreams are not working out, why you’re not happy when you do achieve your goals, and why you’re not manifesting what you thought you wanted.

Creating your own worksheets is the best way because generalized and cookie-cutter designs are not as effective as something you made on your own.  But if you don’t have the time, it’s still okay to choose free templates, especially the ones from The Vision Cloud and other authority sources when it comes to vision board-making.
