I started 2016 by creating my very first vision board (pictured), have you ever heard of one?  Well, I heard they are a powerful tool in keeping your eyes (and the universe) focused on whatever goals you desire in your life.

Having said that, a few weeks after creating my vision board, I was blessed to find a rescue dog (notice, DOG is huge on my vision board).  The back story on that was, I had been searching for quite some time and been wanting a dog - specifically a small, older, potty trained one.  Every time I looked, I either couldn't find one or there was no connection.  Soon after I hung the vision board on the wall, I got a text message asking me if I was still interested in a dog I had inquired about some weeks ago (that is a story in itself) and that the dog was still available.  Needless to say, she's all mine and very spoiled!

The next life event I had was a recent and very random hospital visit (blocked small intestine, which needed cleared via laproscopic surgery).  Even though it wasn't a result of poor eating, I did have to weigh in at the hospital.....Ugh!......it made me think about my vision board and the goals for this year - healthy eating and nutrition.  I've always loved to cook and pride myself in the kitchen.  After this little stint, I felt the universe was telling me the time is NOW to focus on healthy eating and nutrition.  I need to start utilizing my skills in the kitchen to make some wonderful homemade nutritious meals AND this will aid in losing some weight, since 75% of weight loss is DIET.....That's where joining Dietbet comes in!

We are into the 2nd quarter of the year and I'm beginning to see the power of my vision board - It's pretty cool!!  I would like to know if you have a vision board or made one in the past?  What are your goals?  Please share!
