How to Create a Vision Board to Help You Crush Your Goals

Feeling unmotivated lately in your pro cheer journey? Don’t worry, we at PRO CHEER LIFE have the remedy just for that - vision boards. They’re fun to make and are beautiful additions to your home. They’re also an effective aid for achieving your pro cheer goals. Let’s talk about them more.

What Is A Vision Board And Why Do You Need One?

A vision board is a collage of words, images, and other works of art that represents your dreams, goals, desires, and who you are as a woman. When you have a goal to fulfill, it helps you through:

1. Providing motivation and inspiration

The journey of being a pro cheerleader is one that’s full of colors. You’ll experience happiness, foster friendships, and bring joy to other people. There will also be times where you’ll experience pain such as fatigue and muscle soreness from workouts.

But when you look at your vision board, all the complaining and pain will be gone. The board will fire up your emotions making you endure more and even do better on doing your fitness routines.

2. Reminding to bring your pro cheer goals and dreams to life

Aside from doing pro cheer preparations or squad activities, you have other responsibilities to fulfill like school, work, or motherhood. Tending to these major tasks sometimes makes you forget to do one or some audition prep activities.

But if you have a vision board and you see it pretty often, you’ll be able to think about what pro cheer activity you should do next and work hard when the schedule comes.

3. Helping you get unstuck

Once you have adapted to balancing personal, career, and pro cheer tasks, you’ll face one problem - the feeling of living with a mundane routine. This could make you feel stuck. But if you have a vision board, you’ll just look at it again and rearrange it until you feel your mind underwent a hard reset through a session of creativity.

5 Tips For Creating Your Vision Board

1. List down pro cheer goals you need to achieve

Make a list of what pro cheerleaders should have that you lack. The list can include self-confidence, makeup application mastery, dance mastery, a certain waistline, or a certain weight. Then make plans on how to achieve them as well. Write down your “Why?” of being a pro cheerleader too.

2. Collect photos of your favorite pro cheerleaders and squads

Collect magazine photos or download and print pictures online of the squad you’re auditioning for. You can also pick a certain pro cheerleader who has inspired you. Whatever the team or whoever your idol is, cut out their photo so you can pin them on your vision board later on

3. Buy your supplies

The basic needs for a vision board would be a pinboard, pinboard pin, and two wall hooks. If you want to get creative, include some fairy light strings, origamis, and other crafty decors you can find at the bookstore. You can also use adhesives only if you don’t want a pinboard-type vision board.

4. Create your pro cheer vision board

Pin your pro cheer goals and “Why?” to the pinboard along with the photos of your dream pro cheer squad and favorite pro cheerleader. Attach the origamis and other decors to the edges of the pinboard. In the future, you can take photos of your physical progress and efforts and add it to the vision board.

5. Hang it somewhere where you can see it for most of the time

The two wall hooks you’ve bought are for the stability of your vision board. They can be of the adhesive type or the screw-in variety. What matters is, pick a part of your home where you can hang the vision board and it is easy to see. It can be in your workout space, your homemade dance studio, or your bedroom.

At the end of the day, no matter how hard it was, looking at your vision board will make you say “Everything was worth it.” Because you know for every hardship you experience, you’re getting closer and closer to making the images and words in your vision board come true. Then, you’ll sleep peacefully at night.
