How to Make a Dream/Vision Board: Goals Don't Happen Until They're Made

If you are scared of the future, you are not alone! Like riding a bike, at first, it is scary but the more familiar you become with it the more confidence you will build. A dream board is the perfect way to think through and gain confidence in what you are doing and want to do.
Supplies
- 1 Piece of Cardboard/Posterboard
- 1 Stencil approx. 12"x12" (we chose a star
- approx. 1'x1', but you can choose any shape)
- 1 Pair of Scissors
- 1 Packet of Construction Paper
- 1 Glue Stick
- 1 Pack of Markers
- Magazines
- Meaningful Pictures/Quotes
Create Your Goals

- On a sheet of paper, make 6 columns
- Name each column one of the following: Family, School, Finance, Personal, Material, Leisure.
- Write 2-3 goals for each category
- Example of Financial Goal: Save $200 per month to save up for a car.
**This will not be used in your vision board, but is to help get you thinking about your goals/visions**
