Vision Board Ideas and Inspiration

I have always wanted to create a photo collage wall that's inspiring and now when I am motivated enough to create one, I can't go out and get all the color prints and materials - because of the pandemic. So I tried using newspaper clippings which wasn't that great and after that I somehow ended up drawing all of the things to be pinned. I am not even sure if this can be considered a standard vision board which generally highlights concrete goals to be achieved for the next 12 months covering all the major areas of our lives - health, family, career, finance etc. My board has a lot of movie/TV series/book references, quotes, reminders for myself(based on my shortcomings) and some tiny random things which I love like - coffee, cute ghosts, rainbows, nice dresses, books, vacations, stars, clouds, etc. They all represent something important to me and the scenes drawn have some inspiring take away.

If someone else could have drawn it all, it may have looked a lot better,  I have this condition of "not being talented", so it is what it is - but I still love it and drawing it all instead of getting them printed made them all the more mine. Everything has been copied very originally from the internet. Here come my poor drawings, brace yourself! Apologies in advance for ruining your favorite characters.

1. Always listen to Buck : No matter what happens, this rule can't be broken in Ice Age. This has somehow internalized to me as if there's a Buck voice inside me, which is quite rational and I should always listen to him.(It's weird, I know). On similar lines, I have another important reminder - "Walk slowly, but never backwards" - this has been my guiding principle for sometime now.

Always Listen To Buck

 2. Up movie house: It represents adventure and also, family! In the below pic, some other things can also be seen along with a quote - "Do it for yourself".

Tips:

• Take your time to assemble each piece, you can use pinterest to curate the ideas first and then draw/print.
• It's okay if it's not perfect, the purpose is to remind you of what's important.  
• Use paper/chart to stick/pin your clippings - this will help you to easily move them. I have used a map board(which wasn't used much) underneath the papers to make it sturdy. 
• Make sure you cover all the things which you need to remind yourself - goals, habits etc.
