I spend a good deal of time on my computer, on the internet. Hey, it's what my job at US Embassy Rome requires of me, my coach training is all virtual, and I blog, socialize on Facebook, and Tweet. The thought of making a vision board on paper makes me break out in hives!! My good friend Nadine recently mentioned that she created a vision board on Flickr, which I thought was interesting, and then I got another email from a fellow coach, Terry DeMeo, about her experience with vision boards.
For me, a vision board is a gorgeous way to visually and creatively put out into the Universe what our desires are. I don't necessarily believe that everything you paste on a vision board is bound to come to pass, because I honestly believe that sometimes the universe (or God, whatever you prefer), has much bigger and better things in store for us than we could ever imagine for ourselves.
In any case, what's a techie girl to do? Well, let me point you over to Squidoo!! I created a vision board in less than two hours last night, with pictures from Flickr (note: you have to use pictures with commercial attribution licensing), and enjoyed every minute of it. I can see doing lots of "lenses" (what they call the pages on Squidoo – you'll see) on different aspects of how I work with people. One dedicated to Yoga, one to breath, one to visualization, one to dissolving thoughts, etc. etc.
If you have an online vision board, please link to it in the comments. I would really enjoy seeing what others are putting on their boards. If you decide to do one on Squidoo, let me know and I will add you to my lens roll!
Happy vision boarding!

Nona, your vision board is gorgeous! Thanks for including info about CREATIVE COMMONS which is the key word that people have to look for in the Flickr advanced search in making sure they are not violating copyrights with their pix.
