subject: Creating An I Am Board As A Tool To Maintain Balance In Your Life [print this page] We need daily support to maintain focus, clarity, and belief in our dreams. When we venture off track, we become out of balance which leads to stress, procrastination, and lost dreams. Achieving work life balance requires dedication to what is important in life, prioritizing, and having a support system. An I AM Board is a great visual support to have above your work desk or somewhere at home where you see it each morning and evening. An I Am Board is similar to a Vision Board. A Vision Board is where you paste pictures on a poster board of your dream home, your ideal career, vacations you want to take, photos of you with friends, pictures of a healthy you exercising, and clothing you want in your wardrobe. The I Am Board is photos and statements of the person you need to be to acquire the things you desire in life! A vision board is great, but you first have to become the person who is ready to welcome the things you want into your life. You become it and then you naturally attract it.
For example, if I want to run a marathon or wear size 2 clothing, I need to post photos of me eating healthy and working out along with the words that state, "I am vibrant." "I am the power of change." "I am lasting energy!" If I want to have a vacation home in Maui, I need to find pictures of me as a leader and I love to paste words by my pictures like, "I am a leader." "I am making a difference in women's lives." "I love to impact people's lives." The photos and statements will become ingrained in your body and you begin to act as if you are this person.
Obtain a poster board, magazines, scissors, paste and go to work. As you work, you will become clear about who you need to be to live the life you want. The pictures and words will excite you and allow you to see, believe, and feel who you want to become. When you see it, believe it, and feel it, you will become this person! This is a fun tool to achieve freedom, happiness, and balance in your life.
