Make Anything Happen: A Creative Guide to Vision Boards, Goal Setting, and Achieving the Life of Your Dreams

SO good!! As a manager, I am responsible for setting SMART goals all the time for my team, but never really thought about setting for myself! Setting goals is one thing, but I have come to realize how meaningless goal setting can be without the proper tools to actually navigate how to work to achieve said goals. I considered myself a total "rookie" when it came to putting my ideas/goals on paper and to be honest, was a little intimidated with the thought of creating vision boards and always second guessed if I was doing it right (needed to get out of my negative head space). The author of this book spelled it out SO easy and clearly! She writes in a way that keeps you connected and felt at times like she was talking to me personally!! I felt engaged with her inspirational stories and personal life experiences and loved her visuals. I am pleased to say, I have now created my very first vision board by taking the tips and tools she provided and I have hanging proudly up in my house as a daily reminder on how I am in control of making my dreams/goals become reality. I even started gratitude journaling (which is something I've always wanted to start) and I make a habit to keep those positive affirmations coming --because I have learned, you are what you manifest. I love how this book has opened the door and created this chain reaction of opening my mind to implement things I never would have tried before - and BTW..it's totally working!! GREAT BUY! I'm ordering another one as a gift for my sister in-law as we speak!

First, the design of this book is very pretty - it has great pictures and contains a lot of blank pages and worksheets that you can copy or use within the book to create vision boards and write out dreams and goals. It focuses a little less on the actual creation of the board and of affirmations that you might expect, but it gives you a solid foundation in how to organize your time, how to set a goal, and break it down into steps. The author is a friendly lady with a busy life that a lot of women will relate to. I looked at her website and I'll go back, as well as join her Facebook group. I was able to read the whole thing in an afternoon and I'll be going through it next to fill in some of the worksheets. It's fun and creates a sense of possibility. Highly recommended.

This is so much more than a book about vision boards. It has a lot of practical advice, motivational tips and inspiration for life in general. It also balances the "woo-woo" aspects of vision board making with the reality that you have to actually WORK for your goals. I wish I would have had it when I was younger! Now I'm reading it at the same time as "7 Habits of Highly Effective People," and they go so well together. I'd recommend that combination for anyone looking to improve their lives!

Kind of basic, author talks a lot about herself.

Very fun read, not only does it help you figure out and reach your goals, it also motivates you to try new techniques and different ways of thinking about ways to reach those goals. Her personality shines through on every page and keeps you wanting to read more, this is not a book you will put down half way. Get ready to reach those goals!

I love this book and the idea of making a vision board. If you can see it, you can believe it! I also love how you feel like you’re talking to a friend with Carrie’s style of writing. It’s super helpful to have step by step things to do, space to write in the book and links to up to date supplemental resources online.

Carries takes you through the process of creating visions boards. I am so thankful this went on sale as my original was destroyed by my cats!
