Spirituality: Can You See Your Future On A Vision Board?

By Jackson Paul


If you have a piece of cardboard, picture and some glue, you can make a vision board. These boards are said to bring us luck. When we use a vision board, we see everything new happening in our lives. We get to visualize whatever we want on a canvas. Many positive thinkers say that this is something that was practiced by the ancient Babylonians and astrologers 10,000 years ago. When they wanted something, they would visualize it on a piece of canvas and create their dream.

When we create a negative thought, we are often saddened by the fact that bad things are happening around us. There is nothing more devastating than to see negative moments happening in our lives. The movie, The Secret teaches us that we should create a vision board of all of the things that we want to see happening for our lives. The board is made out of cardboard. You are supposed to cut out pictures of the things that you want and paste it on the board. This can be a new Ferrari or a large 5 bedroom home. It can be a trip to Hawaii or a shopping spree for clothes. Whatever it is, put it on a vision board.

People tend to think negative thoughts before positive ones. If we are in a bad situation, we often wonder if it can get any worse. If we are not liking our jobs, we wonder if we will get fired. Instead of thinking positive, thoughts, we are conditioned to think about negative ones. The world today is often looking back at ancient history. We want to know what our ancestors did to fight depression, anger and fear. Many positive thinkers say that we have another way of handling stress. We should look at our lives and feel a sense of power. We need to see life as being something that we can honestly be happy about.

Are human beings supposed to feel depressed? Many psychiatrists give people medication so that they never have to experience depression. Some religious pastors say that this is a good idea since depression makes us turn to alcohol and drugs a lot of the time. When we are sad, we think that the worst possible scenarios are going to happen to us. It is always amazing to see new beginnings taking place in our lives.

Success happens when we focus on something more positively. We do what is necessary to move forward in our lives. Positive thinkers often we are a rubber band around their wrist and snap it if they think of a negative thought. I can understand why they would do this. In return, you learn to put away old habits that only made you unhappy to begin with. It is amazing how our minds can either be happy or sad for no particular reasons. Some medical researchers say that this has a lot to do with a chemical imbalance in the brain. We are learning and discovering new things every day in modern day science about thought and psychology.
