Remaining thankful

I HAVE had a remarkable start to my year, and it keeps improving. I must thank Tower Suites for another profound partnership, and my assistant, Tammy, for the tireless hours she dedicated to this event. My friend, Phillipa Morrish, thank you for sharing her journey and manifesting her vision through the years. Kris Sundar, his son and Dinley were males who benefitted, and were encouraging more males to join us.

The Vision Board Party was phenomenal, and a blessing to many.  I am sharing the experiences of some of the attendees:
“It takes someone with a vision of the possibilities to attain new levels of experience; someone with the courage to live his dreams.” –Les Brown

The feedback gives me even more fuel for my journey, and you will understand why when you read below.

These intentional people did not only create a physical vision, but also a mental movie of their lives. That evening, after prayer and before drifting off to sleep, I replied to those people about the priceless moments I was privileged to have with others. I saw each face and heard the stories. I saw the genuine hugs and reassuring smiles with the message: I got you, sister.

“The Vision Board Party was an extraordinary and life-changing event. Engaging in the creative activity was not only enjoyable, but also incredibly insightful. The testimonials and personal experiences shared by fellow participants added a profound layer to the event, making it a unique and inspiring gathering. The atmosphere was charged with positive energy, and the sense of community created a supportive environment. I left with a renewed sense of purpose and a visually represented vision for my future. This experience is, undoubtedly, worth recommending to anyone seeking personal growth and connection. A fantastic and memorable event that I’m grateful to have been a part of!” –Ms. Lawrence

“My experience at Vision Board 2024 was nothing short of extraordinary: Sitting in a room full with intentional women, with each of us holding a distinct vision while all on a path to unbecoming what we are not and becoming our highest possible self. Each of us bore witness to their hardship, tenacity, suffering, and trust that everything is already working out for the best.

“I went to the Vision Board Party with the intention of creating a vision for this year, but I came away from it with much more than that. I saw the beauty in being vulnerable, made relationships with like-minded people, felt hopeful about the journey ahead, and was inspired to continue pursuing all of my dreams.” –Anastacia Walls.

“Thank you for facilitating one of the most remarkable, reflective, and thought-provoking experiences: Vision Board Party 2024. This event, held at the beginning of the year, is timely, and sets the stage for personal growth and success.

“The vicissitudes of life with overwhelming distractions often derail our best intentions, and disrupt our momentum to achieve significant milestones. While I knew what was required, for various reasons, I remained in that rut far longer than I would have liked. “The poems, testimonies, and reflections of some of the other participants provided an opportunity for great introspection. Also, the visualisation of some of my goals acted as the catalyst for my renewed
motivation.” –Ramona Duncan

“I attended my first Vision Board session on Saturday, January 13, 2024 with Sonia Noel, and it was ‘Absolutely Awesome!’. I choose my words carefully, because ‘absolutely’ means undeniably, unquestionably, unequivocally, and ‘awesome’ refers to something that leaves you in awe; changed, pondering in amazement. It was all of those things for me! I believe every person was hand-picked by the God of the Universe to be there; we all had a part to play in the inspiration and motivation needed to propel us to have an exceptional year ahead and beyond. It was the perfect stimulus to lay out my action plan and work it into manifestation, while living in the moment and enjoying the ride. Thank you sooo much, Sonia. Continue to do what you do so beautifully!” –Carlene Gill.

Ms. Gill was inspired to share a poem she wrote at the gathering. The message was relevant, and everyone appreciated her kind gesture. What is the next step after having your vision sorted? Manifestion, right?

After creating your vision board, the action shifts from visualisation to the active pursuit of your dreams! Here are some key steps you can take:

 1: Integrate it into your routine.

Place your vision board strategically: Hang it somewhere you’ll see it daily, like your bedroom, workspace, or even bathroom mirror. Frequent exposure reinforces your goals, and ignites motivation.

Schedule daily or weekly “visualisation sessions”: Dedicate a few minutes to actively focus on your vision board, and ask God for guidance. Imagine yourself achieving your goals, feeling success and joy. Engage your senses in this visualisation.

Use affirmations: Incorporate the written affirmations on your board into your daily affirmations practice. Repeat them aloud or silently, internalising their positive messages.

 2: Break down goals into actionable steps.

List out concrete steps for each goal: Your vision board shows the destination. Now map the journey. Translate your big dreams into smaller, achievable steps you can take right now.
Create a plan and timeline: Define specific milestones and deadlines for each step. This adds structure and accountability to your pursuit.

Research and acquire resources: Identify tools, knowledge, or skills necessary to achieve your goals. Seek out helpful resources like books, courses, or mentorship.

 3: Take consistent action.

Schedule your actions: Block out time in your calendar to work on your goals, treating them like important appointments. Consistency is key to progress.

Celebrate small wins: Don’t wait for the final achievement to celebrate. Recognise and reward yourself for completing each step, keeping momentum high.

Adjust and adapt: Be flexible and willing to course-correct as needed. Your path may change, but your vision remains your guiding light.

 4: Leverage the power of community.

Share your vision: Talk to supportive friends or family, or join online communities focused on similar goals. Sharing your vision fuels accountability and opens doors to collaboration.

Seek mentorship: Find someone who has achieved what you desire or possesses relevant expertise. Their guidance and advice can be invaluable on your journey.

Embrace feedback: Be open to constructive criticism and feedback from your community. It can help you refine your approach and identify blind spots.

If we follow these steps, we will achieve, and the vision for our lives will manifest. You must be thinking, ‘I wish I had attended that event!’ I decided to host another session at Tower Suites on Sunday, January 28, for those people who registered, paid, and had legitimate reasons for not attending. That event will allow others to join, but you need to register before the event.

Whatsapp: 6848129. The visual event has been shifted to January 27, with people from many countries registered.
 Remember, your vision board is a tool; not a magic wand. It requires proactive effort and commitment to turn those beautiful visuals into a reality. Enjoy the process; celebrate your progress, and stay aligned with your dreams and vision as we continue to celebrate this beautiful journey called life BEYOND THE RUNWAY.
