I received this in my email today:
"From The Secret Daily Teachings
Be creative and use powerful actions in line with what you want. If
you want to attract the perfect partner, then make room in your closet.
If you want to attract a new house, then tidy up your current house so
it is ready for easy packing. If you want to take a trip then get out
your suitcases, surround yourself with pictures of the location, and put
yourself in the pictures.
Think about what you would do if you had your desire, and then take
creative actions that make it clear you are receiving it now.
May the joy be with you,
Rhonda Byrne"
Vision boards are a way for you to map out your desires in life. They have become a very popular tool over the past few years. Movies like
The Secret talk about how you can use vision boards to manifest the things that you want in life. For example if you want to take a trip, make a vision board of your ideal vacation and put yourself in the picture. If you want a better job, make a vision board of yourself doing your dream job.
To make a standard vision board, people typically cut out images from magazines, glue them to poster board then add pictures of themselves. The reminder of your goals and visualizing yourself already accomplishing those goals helps to make your dreams become a reality. This technique is often used by motivational speakers as well who will tell you to write down the things you want in life and then take time each day imagining that you have already reached those goals.
Vision boards can be done in a number of ways...you can encompass several goals (more money, travel, love), have one general theme (a particular trip, a life partner, a new job), or have an "opening and allowing" vision board. The last vision board is used in cases where you may be feeling down and not sure why...in this case you would just choose things that make you feel happy.
I myself used vision boards. I had a good job, financial independence, I had traveled, made friends, and had a lot of fun...but I was ready for a family. So on my vision board I drew a stick figure family...my family. I listed the qualities I wanted in my future partner. One might say it was just my time to start a family, but within a year I found love and started my little family.
But I have a twist on this idea that I would like to share with you. I
will admit, this was not my original idea. It was brought up at our O2
National Convention and I thought it was brilliant. Since Origami Owl jewelry is customizable...why not create a Living Locket Vision Board that you can wear everyday and have it always with you, manifesting your goals and dreams.
I put a few simple ideas together, but with our selection of charms, dangles, and Tags you can create any number of combinations to make your vision board locket. And if you need help, I am always available to help you pick the perfect charms to represent your visions. Message me on
Facebook and I will gladly assist you. Or if you want to go through the charms on your own, here is my

For this first vision locket...I was thinking of love of course! Finding that perfect partner. Maybe you want a partner who loves family, sports (or is physically fit), and you!
To me this vision represents hope. Knowing that sometimes there are bad things that happen to us, or the people we love, yet good things can come of it (yin and yang) and having faith that you will over come that bad thing or situation.
For this one, I chose the faith plate as a reminder to have faith in yourself that you will accomplish your goals. Maybe those goals are inner peace, love (from others or yourself), and travel or beaches (flip flops).
