Are you stuck in a creative rut with your life as a musician?
Is it difficult to see where your musical career is headed?
Are you still puzzling over what you want to accomplish with your music?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then a vision board can help give you a clear idea of what lies ahead.
A vision board is also a powerful manifestation tool that clarifies your goals, inspires your passion for music with excitement and creativity, and brings success to your endeavors.
What is a Vision Board and How Does It Work?
Vision boards are usually poster-sized collages that visually represent a person’s goals. These days, it’s possible to create vision boards online through an app or website.
The goals that go into a vision board can include something general that you want to achieve in life or something related to a specific area (e.g., career, health, or relationship).
Those who use vision boards, including celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Katy Perry, and Ellen DeGeneres, acknowledge how effective they can be in manifesting what they want in life.
Vision boards work through the Law of Attraction, the principle by which positive thoughts attract positive results. For example, believing that what you want most in life is within your reach will manifest the very thing you believe in.
When you visualize the manifestation of your goals and dreams on a daily basis with the use of your vision board, you’re priming your senses to be alert for opportunities and situations that can manifest these dreams and goals.

Here’s an example of an image-rich vision board. Pictures take up a majority of the board’s space, allowing us to really focus on visualizing sensations.
When you’ve been working with vision boards for some time, you’ll find you are more attuned to situations in your life that evoke the same sensations you feel when you’re visualizing the manifestation of your goals.
When you’re open to these signals and willing to take the opportunity, you are more likely to reach your goals.
2. Vision Strip
Looking for something more offbeat? If a regular vision board does not inspire you that much, perhaps this vision strip is worth a try.
As an alternative to vision boards mounted on stiff poster-sized paper or cork boards, this vision strip is made out of a strip of fabric.
Various ephemera, such as printouts of quotes, postcards, and photographs, are placed along the length of the cloth, representing the goals that the creator of this vision strip wants to achieve.
3. Make It Happen
Here’s an example of a digital vision board. You can easily create one on a website or an app you download on your device.

6. Music Student
This piano practice diary can also double as a vision board. It was created by a student of music and uses a combination of handwritten texts, cutouts of inspiring scenes and quotes.
One quote from author Kobi Yamada says, “It’s the little moments that make life big.”
Near the bottom of the page is a gentle reminder for the diary/vision board owner, telling her to do “Small sessions everyday [sic] with purpose.”
7. My Music Dreams
While some people start bands in their garage and dream of becoming rock stars, others take the academic route and enroll in music school, and perhaps even dream of performing in the opera.
