Vision Board

3 years ago, I started to create and believe in the vision board - as mentioned in Rhonda Byrne's The Secret - Understanding the law of attraction - and the power of positive thinking.

My first vision board was not a board at all, I just posted a DVD cover of the movie - Dubai on my cabinet. It was 2007. Few months after that, I found myself in UAE.




Since then, I (like many others) have started to believe that focused positive thinking can have life changing results, such as increased in wealth and happiness.

No, I did not put a check worth 1M on my wallet... but I do consider every now and then The Secret.


2008 - 2009, for almost two years, I did not revise my vision board. Not until November of 2009.
But there is something worth remembering from that collage...a picture of a car that I wanted to have...
and a month after I changed the board; I had the same car on the picture I posted on it...

This is my 2010 vision board:


BIGGER and BETTER!

You can see some long term and short term goals... a beach house, travels, HDV cam, BB, Mac Book Pro, LED TV and lots of money...

It was a year when I hanged that on our wall...


As I drill the wall and placed my board... my hopes were high that some of those photos will be real.

After a year, as I looked up and checked on my board...

I still do not have all those material things. No Blackberry, not even a new phone for 3 years. I never upgraded on Mac... no camera, no LED TV, not even plasma. No travel aside from Philippines.

But I have received BIGGER and BETTER gifts that money cannot buy... 

It's also a year of being in church again...



And more than all those material things, I have received the contentment and happiness that only Our Lord God can give.


I have learned that The Secret is not from the law of attraction or the power of positive thinking, but from Him alone -- our faith and not the vision board lead us through it.

Being in the UAE is not a reality of the DVD cover that was posted on my cabinet, but a perfect plan of the Lord for me to become His servant wholeheartedly.

I received a car not because it was on that collage but because I prayed that God will bless me so I can be a blessing to others as well...

And now, I am the riches person in the world. Not because of all those material things on my board, but because I have Him.

"But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, 
and all these things will be given to you as well."  
- Matthew 6:33
