My Dream Board

Bucket list. Dream. Planning.

I was introduced to the term "Dream Board" by Kirk Duncan of 3 Key Elements. He is a Body Language Master and teaches classes and shares presentations on how to grasp life, to achieve things, and to learn yourself better.

I attended one of his sessions about 2-3 years ago, and he talked about his dream board. Some put it in a binder, or maybe a bulletin board. It is a collection of everything you want to achieve, visit, own, experience, have, eat, and so on! And you put up physical pictures of everything you want. Write up your own diploma, picture of the lobster you want to try some day, a picture of your dream house, everything! 

If you ever go listen to him, you will learn that he has a few extra strategies to follow it. But today, I just wanted to put together a basic dream board. The steps after putting it together include looking it over daily and shouting at it, but we'll just take the first step!

Travel

Because this is important to me. I have had a recent obsession with Alaska for the last 2.5 years, and with Ireland for at least 8 years. My family mostly all comes from Europe, and I want to visit all of it someday. Here are several pictures that make me drool, whine, and wonder if I can go everywhere on the little I have in my bank right now: 

Eat

Because eating is important and after China, I can't get over the thrill of trying foreign foods. Seriously. I can't. 

Left: Gyros

Right: Lobster roll

Left: Vegemite

Right: Real Italian Cannolis

Own

Because I'm still human and desire a few things! But I promise, for everything I buy, I also get rid of something. Size might not be the same... but still!

Left: Chevy Impala '67, Black

Right: Record Player

Left: A HUGE BOOKCASE OF

MY FAVORITE BOOKS

Right: A nice working phone that doesn't freeze up on me ten times a day. That sounds dreamy.

Family:

Not only am I a part of a religion that finds family vital, but hey, it would nice to grow old with someone, someone who helps me make sense of taxes, builds forts to watch movies and read under, who reminds me to work out and I remind him to study and we make stupid jokes. That's ideal, right?

Enough said.

House:

Because who doesn't want a house? I adore the city, but I don't want to be in an apartment or condo for my entire life, even if I can afford living on Main or something weird. I want a gorgeous house, preferably antique-looking, even if everything else is specially modern (totally okay with that, because I don't want the house falling apart, even though house projects can be very fun).

Life activities:

I want to learn, achieve, grow and experience! For example, graduate with a Bachelor's (maybe go for a Master's? We'll see...), travel, write (and publish) my books, have a paint fight, a mud fight, participate in a color run, and more!

 

And here we have it, a large form of my Dream Board. And according to The Secret, this should be helping me out, right? Get me out there? Win, love, experience, attempt and learn! Here's to the future and everything I can do!

Now, what about you?
