Are you thinking about creating a fitness vision board? If you are a regular reader of Reach Higher than you may have already seen the past blog posts about how a vision board works for achieving your goals. Today, we are going to work through creating a vision board specifically for fitness.
Let’s start with a short recap. As a collage, a vision board seems like a child’s project or wishful thinking. The theory of why such a device can help you reach your goals is known as the Law of Attraction, or “like attracts like.” However, this is not magical thinking. The way you think affects the way you behave, and your behavior is what brings change.
With a fitness vision board, we need to start with your goals. Are you trying to lose weight and decrease your body fat percentage? Is the goal to improve fitness and strength? Are you training for your first marathon? Your vision board can keep you motivated, focused, and inspired.
What You Will Need
- Poster board
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Your favorite fitness magazines
- A selfie or a family photo
Step By Step Instructions
Step 1: Go through your favorite fitness magazines and cut out images and phrases that reflect your goals.
Step 2: Before gluing, layout how you want the vision board to look. It may be helpful to divide it into equal parts for different aspects of your fitness goal.
Step 3: Use your glue stick to paste everything on your fitness vision board. Don’t use liquid glue. It causes your images to wrinkle and become wavy.
Step 4: Glue an image of yourself or a family photo, smiling and happy, in the very center.
Step 5: Place your vision board in an area of your home where you will see it often throughout the day.
One more optional step. After you create your fitness vision board, take a photo and tweet it to @TeriSelstrom. I would love to see it when you are finished.
