Inspiration Board

Hi! I hope that everyone enjoyed the maple syrup information yesterday. Tonight’s post is going to feature one of my favorite things: Inspiration Boards.

Inspirations boards are a collage of images, quotes and written goals that inspire you to achieve your dreams. You can clip photos from magazines that inspire you to be a better version of yourself. You can write down quotes that are meaningful to you. It’s helpful to write out individual goals that you want to achieve.

I started making inspiration boards back in middle school and hanging them up in my closet so that I would see them each morning when I got dressed. Then in high school, I made collages out of magazine clippings and put them inside the covers of my binders. Fast forward to now … and I have a little inspiration board in my room. It serves as my daily reminder to work towards my goals, stay positive and create the life that I want to live.

You may have seen Gina’s Inspiration Boards a while back. She kinda reminded me about my love of inspiration boards. Another great post on making inspiration boards is on the Lululemon blog. A few months ago I gathered up the magazine clippings that I had set aside and tacked them up on my bulletin board along with some of my handwritten goals. This summer I’m making working out, taking Layla for lots of walks and getting enough rest a priority, so I wrote myself a little reminder about these too.

So, what’s going on your inspiration board? You can make one to hang up on your wall or if you want to make one on your computer, check out Oprah’s Dream Board Maker online.

I’m going to be sending mine to Karena and Katrina at ToneItUp for their post that they’re doing on inspiration boards. We’re all here to support each other and encourage one another to create our own dream life! Feel free to send me a picture of yours if you make one. Take care, Kilee
