Key Talking Points
"Artists Soar - Vision Board"


Creating Vision Boards for Success:

A vision board is a visual representation of goals, dreams, and aspirations.
It serves as a constant reminder of priorities and helps avoid distractions like FOMO or chasing unproductive "rabbits."
Vision boards can include both big dreams (e.g., a new studio, financial milestones) and smaller, actionable goals.



How to Make and Use a Vision Board:

Vision boards can be physical (cut-out magazine clippings) or digital (created in tools like Canva, Photoshop, or Adobe Stock).
Include images, quotes, keywords, or even checks written out to yourself for specific goals.
Display your vision board prominently, such as on a desktop background or in a daily-use notebook, to maintain focus.



Flexibility and Personalization:

Vision boards don’t need to follow rigid rules—make them work for your style.
Update boards with new ideas or achievements; some prefer transferring completed goals to a separate "achievement board" for celebration.
Consider creating multiple vision boards for different aspects of life, such as artwork, teaching, or personal development.



Practical Applications for Artists and Businesses:

Vision boards can be used to plan large projects, like Stephanie’s idea to create a mural-style calendar showcasing monthly classes at Huntsville Art Supplies.
They can also reflect aesthetic goals for a space, like Stephanie’s vision for an elevated, boujee art supply store experience.



Vision Board Workshops and Classes:

Artists Soar is hosting a vision board class as part of their business workshop series in 2025.
Workshops will guide participants in creating vision boards tailored to their goals and values, with downloadable resources for those unable to attend in person.



Benefits of Vision Boards:

Provides clarity on goals and serves as a motivational tool.
Keeps focus on long-term objectives while allowing for dreaming and creativity.
Helps evaluate opportunities based on alignment with goals.
