How to make a Digital Vision Board: create a vision board online

Here are all the steps and details required to make an effective digital vision board online.

Step 1: Find Vision board categories

Making a vision board can be challenging as your entire life goals and dreams need to be considered in the vision board. So, to make the process easier, I highly recommend starting the process by selecting a few of the categories that you would like to focus on.

Breaking down the vision board into categories makes the creation process easier and helps you manifest your vision board more effectively. Start by determining the key areas of your life that you want to focus on, such as career, relationships, health, personal growth, finances, or travel. Each category must represent a unique aspect of your life that you are passionate about and want to nurture.

Honing in on specific categories will help bring clarity and intention to your vision board practice. So take a moment to explore the various categories that resonate with you, and your needs in life and will help you get the successful life you have always envisioned.

Step 2: Vision board goal setting

Once you have identified the categories you must start with goal setting for your vision board. Define goals for each of the categories to get a vision board that really works for you. Setting goals that are realistic and defined outcomes will help you select the right images and elements for your vision board. It allows you to prioritize your goals and allow you to create a vision board that truly reflects your desires and motivations.

I have created a free workbook that you can use to easily identify your goal, you can download it here. To plan your goals and set them in action use the below goal planner.

Step 3: Free online Vision Board Creator

There are many options to create a vision board online, you can either use websites, free vision board apps or conventional programs available on your computer. Here are some of the platforms available to make vision boards online for free, some have paid upgrades but may not be necessary.

Selecting aesthetic vision board pictures is an essential step in creating a visually inspiring and meaningful representation of your goals and aspirations.

You must choose images that resonate with you on a deep level and are better if those are real representations of your goal. For example, if you have a goal to get into a particular university you must add a picture of that university, to help you visualize yourself being part of that university.

The pictures you select must evoke emotions, capture your desired lifestyle, and align with your core values. If possible you should try to gather pictures of similar aesthetics, so that your vision board will have a cohesive appearance and bring up the overall aesthetic and message of your vision board. Pictures serve as powerful visual reminders of the life you wish to manifest so, take the time to explore various sources such as magazines, websites, and social media platforms to find the perfect images that speak directly to your soul and inspire you to turn your dreams into reality.

Some online sources to get beautiful images for free for your vision board are below:

Select enough pictures for each category of goals and save them all in a folder for the next step. You can also use Pinterest to collect the images that resonate with you and make a Pinterest vision board.

Step 5: Selecting Vision board template

With the pictures ready now it is the time to assemble them as a vision board and bring dreams to reality. To make the process easier pick a template from the platform that you have selected in step 3 most of them offer free vision board templates.

While selecting the template for the vision board consider the overall design and layout of the template, ensure it reflects your personal aesthetic and motivates you to take action. Whether you prefer a minimalist approach or a vibrant and colorful design, finding a template that ignites inspiration within you is essential.

Additionally, make sure that all the sections and categories you desire can be included in the template and provide enough space for you to visualize and specify your desires.

I would suggest that you emphasize the layout and not the color theme as most templates allow you to edit the color in a few clicks.

To make your vision board more powerful, it is best to add your personal touch. Adding a touch of uniqueness to your vision board and making it truly reflective of your aspirations and dreams. You can add a personal touch through images, quotes, affirmations, and words for yourself. For example if one of your goals with the vision board is to be more happy add your picture where you are very happy or a moment that makes you feel more positive. If you wish to read more books, add images of the specific books that you wish to read rather than adding general images of a book stack or some reading of a book. You can include your favorite quotes that you may have read.

Adding a personal touch to your vision board allows you to establish a deep connection with your goals and enhances your drive to accomplish them

To manifest your vision board you must place it somewhere you can frequently have a look at it. With a digital vision board, there are 2 options to display. You can either print of out and have a physical vision board or use your vision board digitally. If you choose to have a physical vision board, your bedroom is one ideal location, where you can wake up and immediately connect with your dreams and aspirations. Another good place to display your vision board is your work desk, so that every time you start your work you will be inspired by looking at your vision board.

If you want to use your vision board digitally, you can make it your computer wallpaper or set it as your mobile or iPad home screen.
