It’s that time of year. Make your vision board.
Well, actually – Envisioning Possibility is an everyday occurrence, or it can be a regular occurrence.
It’s allowing ourselves the time to dream. To think of the possibilities and address a few of the changes in our mind and, therefore, our lives.
I’ve moved my office location in my home to a more private space. I took over a former bedroom. The physical move was easy. It was to move a file, desk, and bookcases. The more time-intensive part is the supply area, books, and inside the files… It is the opportunity to have a place for everything and everything in its place.
In doing some research, I found that massive changes like this can be rattling or energizing. Our mind says – that’s not in the usual place, that’s not normal, that is not my routine or habit. Then, the mind starts searching for the adventure. If the exploration works for you, the energy kicks in.
I facilitated a workshop on envisioning the possibilities. Still, I got tired of using the words A Purpose Driven Vision Board Workshop. Like all Public Relations, as soon as you’ve heard yourself speak it a million times and you’re tired of it, some people only hear it for the first time.
Create a purpose-driven vision board, and you will begin uncovering the possibilities.

Happy New Year.
Question of the year 2024 – from 2023. What’s working for you?
I’m a list maker, so I’ll begin.
Working for me # 1 – Sleep Habit
I end every day writing a list, surprise, right? I write not just thinking about – it’s easy to go to bed and think oh, that went well or that was good. But writing it down and, in some cases, noting how that happened? When I write how I made that happen, I’m surprised to learn that I planted a seed a few days, weeks, or months ago, and the outcome started growing. The result is incredible, and I am grateful. The acknowledgment of that outcome is in my writing at night.
I write the three things I’m grateful for during the day. The results are fascinating.
1. Most importantly, I get a good night’s sleep. I haven’t stuffed my mind with useless trivia or negative thinking.
2. It helps me reflect on the things or circumstances I created to support that good part of the day and how I can repeat them.
Working for me #2 – Website Building
I am learning how to build my website again. Paul taught me in 2010 to develop my website from scratch. It served me well for many years. The new one is one in WordPress but with Elegant Themes and DIVI. I love it! I love working on it and figuring out the puzzle. Yes, it would be faster and easier if I hired someone to do that for me. But I’m not in a rush, and yet I am in a hurry. The joy of working on it outweighs the time it takes.
1. Learning Divi
2. Researching the best templates and methods of communication
Working for me #3 – Envisioning Possibilities
I have chosen a new set of words to define the purpose-driven vision workshop I’ve been doing for years. Although, many people find the terms interesting and exciting to follow, I was bored with the words.
I believe the concept is strong and still stands, but PDVB? Even the acronym looked stoggy.
Advanta Strategies is over 20 years old and it is my main business, this year I added a spark to it.
1. I purchased a new URL
2. Using Divi – created a website for people to sign up. www.envisioningpossibilities.com
