Holly Richardson: Vision boards and words of the year

Related Topics: Word of the year, Iceland

Vision boards are visual reminders of our goals and intentions for the future. Generally, they are less about the specifics of how and more about the what, especially the feelings that “what” invokes. What do you want to be? What do you want to do? What do you want to have?

Vision boards are deeply personal, of course, and similar pictures may be chosen for very different reasons. For example, a picture of a babbling brook may end up on someone’s vision board as a reminder to spend more time in nature, or to meditate more, or to increase their outdoor photography skills or maybe even a reminder to drink more water (just skip the giardia part).
