Expert Answer

A vision board is a visual representation of what you want your life to look like. Include pictures of that. There is no perfect vision board, because there is no perfect life.

Question

What percentage of dream boards really come true? Is like a goal you spend 50 years trying to reach and it never happens?

Community Answer

The dream board is a form of organizer to help you prioritize your dreams. When you have the most important dreams on the board, you visualize them so you can think through how to make those dreams come true.

Question

What if I have more than one major dream?

Infizity

Community Answer

You could just put all your major dreams on the dream board. It's usually one major dream on a dream board for the sake of organization. But, if you have multiple dreams, that's okay, too.

What can I do if I don't have any dreams?

It does not have to be for dreams; you can use it as a place to put accomplishments, notes and pictures.

Question

What to do with old dream boards: throw away, burn?

Exclusive Dijaaa

Community Answer

You can choose to throw them away, but you can keep them for memories. Tell nieces, nephews, or even your grandchildren about how you grew up in the past, and you led to your success.

They are really motivational. Especially in these hard times at home. They can do lots of different great things for different people. They usually remind you what to be excited about.
