Aim To Be Coaching

Every day, I am challenged with the questio: Is this ON of OFF my vision? Does this thought, or action support my vision, distract me from my vision or destroy my vision.? Here is a recent vision board declaring ARMS WIDE OPEN to ALL of what is good, great and wonderful! Now, comes the challenge of choosing to be worthy of this vision and living ON it! What is YOUR vision of what you want?

Imagine the process of choosing pictures that are ON or OFF your vision board…..What does NOT BELONG gets taken away!! In your day, do not give power to anything that does not belong on your vision! You are worthy! Arms wide open!

Imagine waking up every day and declaring this is your vision for today. If friends are unkind, you get to declare: This does not belong on my vision for today. I give it no power. When there is joy, you jump to claim it! Why? Because the foundation to having a vision board is the declaration: I AM WORTHY! What other declarations do you see for this person?

My neighbor kindly pointed out to me that vines were over-taking our magnolia trees. How could that happen? Easily! I never checked! Lo and behold….I came to the discovery that the entire bed was covered in weeds and unwanted vines!

How does a person get to a place that they are struggling and at risk of harming themselves or others? They let the weeds of “dark thoughts” go unchecked and they start to take over!!

I have to do a daily “clearing” of my “weeds” or they will destroy all that is good in my life!

Look at this glorious vision board!!!! It was DECLARED that she loved having gatherings of friends, so we called the church and there will be a pool gathering and game day at her house next month! Vision building helps all possibilities be considered and some to become reality! BTW....THe woman who did this is in her late 60's! It is NEVER too late to build the vision you want for your life! You are worthy!

The gift of having a vision board is that you are equipped to assess all areas of your life to discern what activities/thoughts support your vision and what activities/thoughts are destructive to your vision. I cannot change the harsh reality of trauma or loss, but I can insure how I respond to it keeps me on my vision. If you don't have a vision, how can you bring about a change? WHat a blessing to witness the creation and declaration of one's vision!

Who does not begin or end their day with the question: What are my plans for today? What am going to do? You cannot make plans if you do not have a vision for the day! What a blessing to meet with an up-coming college freshman and allow her to create her vision of what her life will look like when moving into the unknown world of college! Step 1: Define your vision! Only endless steps to go in making it happen! No problem! We all have time to make it happen!

I have just finished a morning session with an up-coming Sophomore in college! Look at her vision board she has declared! Look at her purpose! Step 1 in every stage of life is having a vision board so you can do Step 2: "Ask the question: Am I ON or OFF my vision board? " THere will only be 10, 005+ steps to go, but you have to have these two steps in place!
