Why a Mid-Year Vision Board Might Be Just What You Need
As we navigate through the year, it’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of daily responsibilities and forget about the goals and aspirations we set at the beginning. A mid-year vision board serves as a powerful tool to realign with your goals, super fuel fresh energy into your pursuits, and stay motivated for the remainder of the year. Here’s why creating a mid-year vision board can be beneficial:
1. Reflect and Reassess:
The middle of the year is an ideal time to reflect on the progress you've made so far. Are you on track with your goals? Have your priorities shifted? By reassessing where you are and where you want to go, you can make necessary adjustments and ensure your vision board accurately represents your current aspirations.
2. Renew Motivation:
It’s common to start the year with a burst of enthusiasm, only to see it wane as months go by. A mid-year vision board can reignite that initial excitement and motivation. By visually reaffirming your goals, you can recharge your determination and push through any mid-year slumps.
3. Adapt to Change:
Life is unpredictable, and circumstances can change. Perhaps new opportunities have arisen, or you’ve encountered unexpected challenges. A mid-year vision board allows you to adapt your goals to your current reality, ensuring that your aspirations are relevant and achievable.
4. Celebrate Achievements:
Creating a new vision board mid-year is also an opportunity to celebrate what you’ve already accomplished. Acknowledge your successes, no matter how small, and let them inspire you to continue striving toward your larger goals.
5. Refocus and Realign:
As the year progresses, it’s easy to get sidetracked by various distractions. A mid-year vision board helps you refocus on what truly matters. It serves as a visual reminder of your priorities, helping you realign your actions with your goals.
6. Infuse Fresh Energy:
Starting anew with a mid-year vision board brings fresh energy and creativity into your goal-setting process. It’s a chance to infuse your vision with new ideas, images, and inspirations that resonate with your current state of mind and ambitions.
7. Break the Year into Manageable Segments:
Viewing the year in smaller segments can make your goals feel more manageable. By breaking the year into two parts, you can create more attainable milestones and maintain a sense of momentum throughout the year.
8. Strengthen Commitment:
Revisiting and updating your vision board mid-year reinforces your commitment to your goals. It’s a proactive step that demonstrates your dedication to personal growth and achievement.
9. Foster a Growth Mindset:
Engaging in the practice of creating a mid-year vision board promotes a growth mindset. It encourages continuous reflection, learning, and adaptation, all of which are essential for long-term success.
10. Create a Supportive Community:
If you choose to create your mid-year vision board with a group, it can foster a sense of community and shared purpose. Sharing your goals and aspirations with others can provide additional support, accountability, and inspiration.

Not sure what is a vision board is?
- A vision board is a collage of images, pictures, and affirmations of one's dreams and desires. It's a tangible representation of where you see yourself in the future. By placing it in a space where you see it often, you are constantly reminded of your goals and inspired to achieve them.

Visualization is a mental practice where you create a vivid picture in your mind of what you want to achieve. This technique taps into the power of the subconscious mind, reinforcing positive thinking and motivation. Vision boards amplify this practice by providing a physical, visual representation of your dreams.

Each year I like to re-asses my progress, appreciate how far I have come, but also keep myself on track. For several years now I have taken the time to create various vision boards - they hold me accountable to keep on heading in a direction that I can be proud of.
