Once shrouded in secrecy like a diary or personal journal, vision boards have been praised by Oprah and featured in The Secret. They are colorful canvases, modern-day career maps--highly inspirational and personal in nature--comprised of photographs, collages, mementos, drawings, and quotes, which create a visual layout of one's career and personal aspirations.
With a foreword by Bob Proctor, a featured teacher in The Secret, and an afterword by Jack Canfield, co-creater of The Chicken Soup for the Soul Series, this eagerly anticipated papeback version of The Vision Board helps readers discover the secret to living the life of their dreams!
Advice and stories from other teachers of The Secret, such as Marie Diamond, Bob Doyle, and Lee Brower, is also included throughout, along with inspiration and anecdotes from numerous celebrities, advocates, motivational speakers, and community leaders. Also included are examples of everyday lives influenced by vision boards as well as over 75 beautiful full color illustrations and vision boards, and an easy three-step system to identify exactly what you want in life and how to attain it.
