If you can dream it, you can do it




So for the longest time, my mom has been telling me to create a dream board. What exactly is a dream board? It’s a board in which you put your entire life on and it has to be specific. For example if you want children, you cut out pictures of how many kids you want, and you put it on the board. If you want to be dentist, you cut out a picture of something that has to do with dentistry and paste it on your board. Get the idea?

I had a dream board, back in sophomore year and it was not anything realistic-- at least not for me. It was halfway finished, I had a picture of Chris Brown on it (he was supposed to be the man I wanted to marry but not really), I had a stack of money, a burnt orange BMW, a random mansion in some European country, and a bunch of random words. Looking back on it, it was really just random things I had cut out of magazines, glued on my board, showed my mom, and thought I was satisfied. One big thing about the dream board is that you’re supposed to look at it every day and visualize what you’ve put on it and truly visualize your life the way you designed it. So thinking about my board now, it was definitely a waste of time. Do I see myself marrying Chris Brown? Heccccckkk no. Do I want a burnt orange Beamer?? Not at all. Do I need a 566780978 room mansion in the middle of nowhere? Naah but it would be nice just to say I have one lol.

This entry might seem a little random but the other night, my mom came home with 4 big black foam boards and said it was for a dream board! One was for me, one for her, one for my sister, and one for my brother or my dad. I wanted to do it but it’s too big to fit into my suitcase and it would be ridiculous to ship it. I think this time around, I’m going to put some serious thought into my dream board and make one. Heck, Oprah has dream board ideas posted on her website and if Oprah is talking about it, it’s got t be good!! There are a lot of things that I want out of my life and I really do want them to come to fruition. After all, if you can dream it, you can do it.
