Thanks for your plug in suggestion. I will attempt to do that! I am just drowning in stuff to do and I love the concept of the 4 hour work week, however I think I am running on a 400 hour work week right now. I love my new vision board and thank you for spurring me forward by sharing yours.

It was great seeing you the other night and I am excited about the ebook venture. Stand by for a new posting on that subject soon! Kaya

Hey I thought I’d turn you on to a plugin that you might like for your blog, it lets people who comment get notified of replies to their comments, thus encouraging more dialog on your blog:

It installs pretty easily, shouldn’t be hard for your programmer to add.

Thank you, thank you for sharing your board. It is wonderful and I can really see you four quadrants. It is a really cool way to divide up the space and bring in four different energies. I love the “imagining wanting more and getting it.” My board is still not completely done – almost- so this has inspired me to finish it. I’ll have it up here by the end of the week so check back. Kaya

I’ve made lists of intentions before but this was a lot more fun. I was surprised at how easy it came and also by how many words I cut out. I thought it would be mostly pictures, but I loved adding words to it.

I ended up dividing it into four quadrants which helped me organize it and make it easier to tackle:
1. contribution/creativity
2. relationship
3. self/spirituality
4. abundance/ease

Kathleen- thanks to you too for sharing about your rituals and changes from being a parent of your children and appreciating the solitude on New Years. It’s is funny how we grow and change and outgrow and still change. It was wonderful bringing in the new year with you.

John- Yes- I agree with you about being specific. Very excellent point you have made. I wish we could see yours. Maybe save it smaller and re-try?

Zoe- Very cool to know that you will be in Gisborne doing the same thing. And- yes I will be back to New Zealand as it is “home.” Not sure when… Send along a photo of yours if you can. Kaya

Thanks for sharing about your vision board. I am working on getting together a group to do vision boards this week here in Gisborne.

I found John Armundsen’s comment about specificity useful – thanks John.

I hope New Zealand will be on your 2008 vision board Kaya! We’d love to see you again down here.

Wishing you love, luck, good health and great joy for 2008.

This is my vision board. I find that a Vision Board is very powerful. I am also beginning to think that it can be too general to attract to you what you really want. With my vision board, I am going to try to write a more specific vision of what I think that I want. The difficult thing about being more specific is not being so specific that you can’t get what you want in a way that you didn’t imagine before. You must simultaneously know what you want and be open enough to get it in ways beyond your initial understanding.

Sorry, my vision board is a Word Document and was too big to cut and paste here. The text came through but the pictures did not.

I have always been a journal writer myself. And being a single parent to two young children, student, sole income provider and 22 years old, I learned early on the joy and peace of solitude on New Years Eve. I have made it a ritual to go through my year of journals in the days around New Years, and write about those memories, celebrate the experiences and set intentions for the coming year of experiences. Not really resolutions, but intentions, ways I want to fine tune my quality of experience.

Doing a vision board is a nice compliment to my ritual. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the emails and the blog entries. Many blessings for ’08.
