When I first heard of a vision board a few years ago (do you remember "the secret" from Oprah?)
I thought it was a crock.
But then shortly after I realized how powerful positive thinking is.
And I realized that I had been doing it all my life.
Before I met Wes I had a specific list of 24 thing I wanted in a man.
It was hidden in my box of cards for years and
when I took it out 3 years after I had married Wes, I realized that he met all 24.

When it comes to my photography I am a lot less confident.
It is competitive and this industry is saturated with amazing photographers and images.
But,
I have to continue to be true to myself and I have to continue to believe that
I. WILL. SUCCEED.
I made a vision board today and I'd like to share it with you,
if it is ok.
1. This is a name tag I had when I worked at a small resturant in San Luis Obispo. That place made me very happy.
2. To be amazing in my photography.
3. This fortune has been hanging on my work cork board for over 15 years. It says "dont give up, the best is yet to come"
4. 300 likes on facebook.... not a fan? become one! click on the link and push "like"
5. Photography success- how it will be measured will be one or all of the three things happening:
- a large company (ie: Gap, etc) will hire me to do photographs
- someone will hire me to travel to take their photos
- my photograph will be in a magazine ad.
6. To be fit and 110 pounds.
7. Reminding myself that I am worth it.
8. Following my drive is going to help me succeed. I can't be anyone but me,
9. My friend told me this today "the squeaky wheel gets the grease"- make myself present
10. I wrote a letter to myself to remind me that I have to believe in myself and that others do to.
(thank you to those who do)
11. Stop drinking alcohol. Its bad for you. (so good though right?)
12. Ever since my Kookie Karma shoot, I'm changed. I want my kids to willingly eat vegetables, real food... specifically broccoli.
13. My kids names and footprints... just to make me smile.
