Today was a great day. I finally reached the 80,000 frequent flier miles I needed to book a free trip to Australia! I was so excited. I've been planning to go to Cairns, Australia all year, and my goal was 11/10, which is my birthday. So I took a break at work and called united airlines to book my free award flight to Cairns. After a  frustrating 45 minutes trying to find a flight that matched my dates, the united guy on the phone suggested I choose another city as my destination. 
What??! I have the entire trip to Cairns planned in my head. There's this thing called scubadoo that I've been wanting to try, and breakfast with koalas and other randomness I've researched. It never crossed my mind to choose another city. 
And who has ever heard of the airline company suggesting I choose another vacation destination!? But I've been working on going with the flow so I said, okay. The only other city I could think of was Sydney. Bingo! 3 minutes later I was booked for my selected dates.The funny thing is that I have a couple of pictures of Australia on my vision board... I just noticed Both of them have the Sydney Opera house in the picture. It was on my vision board.

Here's my vision board story... It doesn't turn out exactly as I intended. I think a lot of unmarried ladies have identified that "perfect" place that they'd love to have their dream wedding one day. I found my dream location last June. I printed out pictures and put them on my vision board and I put a stack of printouts in my my jewelry chest. For that "one day".
The thing to note is that this venue is in the middle of nowhere. I mean absolute nowhere... backwoods Alabama. 
Everyone that I knew getting married had already chosen their venue at other locations.
The one wedding that I am a bridesmaid in just informed me that they have a last minute venue change to guess where? That's right, my "perfect" venue. The odds of that have to be a kajillion to 1. 
So, technically I'll be walking down the isle at my dream spot but...
That's not what I meant.

The Pictures On My Wall Came True...

The pictures below are two pictures hanging on my wall in my home gym. I've looked at those pictures a thousand times while working out. Those pictures became reality!

When I went to Paris I took a day trip Lori Valley to visit castles. I saw 3 different castles that day and I even got to have dinner in one! Then it started raining and everything suddenly looked really creepy, so I took out my camera and started snapping away. Here is one of the pictures I took.... They are the same.

The White Space On My Vision Board

I like for things to be symmetrical.  Back when I made my very 1st vision board there was a blank area without a picture so of course I felt I needed to add one. So I looked thorough the magazines I had at the time and there was a picture that was the perfect size. Nevermind that it was a picture of the Golden Gate bridge, it was the perfect size for the blank space! You should remember from my previous post Career Ladder that I accepted a new job. Well three weeks after starting they informed me that I would be traveling to where... San Francisco! Oh, it didn't stop there. The setup of the organizations was:
  • Alabama was the location for Project Managers and Business Analysts
  • Washington DC was the location for Business Owners
  • Philadelphia was the location for Software Testers
  • San Francisco was the location Software Developers
This means I had to travel from Alabama to San Francisco quite often. I was kind of tired of seeing that bridge.

Robb Gilbear's (my favorite story) & My Vision Board

I was talking to my brother yesterday about the new vision board I created on 08/24/2014. It is how this blog came about. IT WAS ON MY VISION BOARD! This timeline is crazzzy. I always email myself a picture of my vision board after I create it so that there is a date/time stamp. This is just in case I have to "prove" any of my manifestation to anyone. So I forwarded the email to my brother. Then I told him my about timeline:

08/24/2014 - I created a new vision board
08/28/2014 - I wake up with the idea to start a blog.
All day long I kept seeing ads for weebly everywhere.
08/29/2014 - Ideas kept coming about what to add to the blog
08/30/2014 - I work out all the kinks
08/31/2014 - I have a fully functioning blog & facebook page up and running with traffic from every continent

Why? Because I took action when I had inspired thought.


I'd like to share one of my favorite vision board stories with you. Robb Gilbear's (@robbgilbear) timeline was crazzzy too. He wrote down everything he wanted on a piece of paper...Then he took action.

My #visionboard #dreamboard Came True - Career Ladder #itwasonmyvisionboard

I had a great career by some people's definition, but not by mine. I worked for a large, "stable" company, in a salaried position with full benefits....But I wanted more. 

My complaints were the same as most: underpaid, underemployed, and at one point I even had a manager who refused to speak to me. She would silently walk by my desk, go into her office and email me. When she failed to give me a performance review I knew I had to leave. No performance review meant no argument for a promotion. Nothing I was doing was being documented!

There was such an overwhelming sense of dread going in to work. I wrote the word "temporary" on a post-it note and stuck it on my computer screen. I used up most of my vacation days. But instead of going on vacation, I spread them out and used them one at a time for what I called "mental days". I remember telling my family member "This ain't living".  My coworker and I would go to the park every day at lunch and they would have to give me a pep talk so that I would actually go back and finish out the day. I couldn't imagine being there for years.

I knew what I wanted, I wanted a new job with a new organization. I wanted progress. I wanted to climb the ladder of success that everybody talks about. 

So I put a picture of a woman in a business suit climbing a ladder on my vision board... It worked!

A short time later I got an interview with the federal government. And then they made me an offer!! YES! But that's not all. See, I knew nothing about the government setup, I had never worked in that area and didn't know anyone else who had. I had no idea that they refer to their positions as "Career Ladder Positions" and each year you get a "step increase". I was floored.

The position I accepted was just what I needed at the time. I was there for a couple of years, and every every year I was there... I got a promotion.

My #visionboard #dreamboard Came True! - #Travel all over the world! #itwasonmyvisionboard

My intent was simple. I wanted to travel all over the world so I placed a picture of an airplane circling the globe on my vision board. Before I knew it (a year later) I was on my first flight to another continent, ASIA! The opportunity completely fell into my lap...and it was Free.

At the time my brother was in a leadership program at the company he works for. As a part of the program, every six months, for two years, he rotated to a different area of the organization. This company has an office in Singapore which is in Southeast Asia. When my brother found out about the Singapore office he told me all about it. I encouraged him to show interest in rotating there for six months. He did. They agreed. And he moved. We later found out that the company would pay for the flight of a family member to visit him while he was there. I was that family member!

To say it was a trip of a lifetime would be an understatement. I spent 7 days in Singapore and the casual mention of Indonesia by my brother's coworker led us to book a last minute trip to Bali. Little did I know this was only the beginning. The flier miles that I accumulated from the trip to Asia combined with the flier miles I accumulated from traveling for work gave me the ability to buy another flight for a highly discounted price. Six months after my trip to Asia I traveled to Durban, South Africa!

Impressed with my success in traveling with frequent flier miles I got the idea to start paying very close attention to airline promotions that let you buy miles. I quickly realized that I could buy miles during the double miles promotion deals and it would cost less than actually outright buying a ticket for a flight. And that is what I did. Six months after that, I traveled to Paris, France!

I'm from a very small town in Alabama, so small that there are no traffic lights and no stores. I do not know anyone who has traveled like this. I am truly grateful for the opportunity. In my case I think it was good that I was generic with my request. I could have never picked the locations that I had the opportunity to visit.
