Vision Boards for the Future

So I finally wrote out my goals for 2012. But before we get to that, here’s a look at a vision board I made for myself a few years ago. The goals are along the right side.

Ironically, write a book was at the top of the list, although I didn’t think I’d accomplish that until 2019. A few others I’ve checked off: spending at least 2 hours a week in nature, living with trees in my backyard and the city at my doorstep, listening more and talking less, getting certified to teach yoga, growing my own herbs and vegetables, and in my opinion, driving a convertible–that huge sunroof is the closest I will likely get to that, which is fine by me.

My resolutions/goals for 2012 aren’t written out as succinctly (and “improve penmanship” is one goal that I perhaps should have added to the list), but here they are. I’m toying with the idea of inviting friends over for a vision board “party” but all of that talk of goals seems so un-Portland. Which may be precisely why it’s a good idea.
