This year I started doing something a
little differently to my usual vision boards and writing on my mirror. I
started an aspiration journal. It was somewhere to keep my goals and dreams,
write affirmations, my plan of action and record progress.
I put my personal mission statement at the
front, followed by my personal values. I did this because I wanted everything
in my aspiration journal to align with the life I was creating for myself that
was true to me and my daughters.
I wrote my strengths on one page, areas to improve on another. I wrote what was on my vision board on another page.
I then wrote out my goals, starting them
with affirmations I could read regularly. It worked well and I took it with me
everywhere. When I was waiting in dr’s offices, in line or at school pick up, I
would pull it out, read my goals and affirmations, write in there and focus on
where my life was heading, how I was going and appreciate the changes I was making
in my life to improve our future.
After I moved to Canberra I got lazy with
it. I was now living where I wanted, work was going well and I felt pretty
happy and content. I still feel happy and content, but I know my life journey
is continuing and I won’t be content to just stay how I am.
On my recent trip to the USA I came across
this notebook and fell in love with it immediately. It is my new aspirations
journal. Because, I am Wonder Woman.
I know my goals and aspirations. I know
where I want my life to be. I know I am happy with my life. I know the sort of
person I am working on becoming and the life I want to have. I am blessed to
have the choice and be in a position to work towards it all.
Since this is a new journal, I have decided
to revisit my mission statement, my values and my vision board. I am starting
over, with everything. Aligning all my desires, goals and dreams with my core
values. During this process, it has been easier to decide which course of
action I want to take in various areas of my life, which things I will
eliminate from my life and how to build my dream life.
Do you know your values? Do you have a
personal mission statement? Do you use vision boards, aspiration journals and
things like that?
On a separate note, I've been featured in the following personal finance carnivals this week:
