The Vision Board: The Secret to an Extraordinary Life Paperback – December 22, 2009

This is a very good book about vision board making. Unfortunately I got the similar book "It Works!" before Miss Joyce Schwartz's book. That book taught every "essential" know-how about Goal/Vision setting in 15-20 pages of it. No-nonsense/ direct to the core. That book simplifies everything. Left with no doubt.This book, on the contrary, presents unnecessary and complicated information. And from times to times presents real-life vision boards which are, in my humble opinions, wrong in every level of vision board making. (Such as writing negative phrase instead of positive one.)Yet it's still a very good book for vision board beginners. If you want a collection of Law of Attraction books you should have this book.

The book cover, says it all, "This book will change your life;" Quoted by Jack Canfield.The "Vision Board: The Secret to an Extraordinary Life," by Joyce Schwarz, is a very well written, well organized composition of guidance, examples, and extraordinary testimonies from ordinary people all over who had vision boards consciously or unconsciously.What I love most about this book, aside from the clear instructional guidance delivered on every single page, is the wonderful collection of real Vision Boards that Joyce painstakingly sought out from people around the world of varying backgrounds, lifestyles, goals, and accomplishments to include.Joyce seamlessly carries us from developing our a vision, to understanding the purpose of visioning, and igniting our passion to create our Vision Board by sharing this phenomenal "Secret to an extraordinary Life."This book is not only written with the passion and love of the author, but the author has included the passion and love of all the vision board owners in the book and has opened a way for many of their remarkable journeys; including my own as my vision board appears on page 143.This is a creative guide to awaken our passion to dream and plan our destinies with confidence. Ms. Schwarz doesn't just teach the art of creating vision boards she explores the history and power of this primordial art form and effectively endorses the evidence of believing in our vision.By her showing the visions of others, we undoubtedly witness the vision of Joyce Schwarz.This book has literally changed my life.Diane V.

There is a fantastic feeling that you only get when a power greater than yourself, the universe, God, gives you a gift. A life affirming gift. One that ignites every essence of your being and has your blood pumping and heart throbbing. You find yourself saying, Oh I didn't know it could be this intense, amazing, or I could never have imagined something of this magnitude yet with such detail! The timing is beyond human construction. I am here on this planet at this time, lucky enough to experience this.... Then true humility in all it's beauty shrinks you to a speck in the DNA chain of this Divine Nature. The enormous, loving, gift giving, universe, made up of all that is... and there you are, feeling your own presence as a special part of it..... That is the present moment swallowing you whole! That is the enormous enveloping love that you experience when the moment puts you in it's center. I asked for this feeling and got it from using Vision Boards. Images and expression are the language of the universe and that is the language you will learn from reading The Vision Board; The Secret to An Extraordinary Life by Joyce Schwarz. You put your dreams up for the universe to see and then laugh and celebrate as those dreams are far exceeded. Have fun and a Vision Board is the best way to have a Happy New Year!

This is a beautiful book, nice size, easy to travel with.The Vision Board by Joyce Schwarz has a lot more information and advice than I expected from a Vision Board book and I purchased more to see examples and photos of other vision boards, which this has lots of (some are amazing).But it goes deeper than that, people share their life stories and how the boards helped them focus on what they wanted, like a mental list. There are sections on health, romance, career, family life and wealth. I particularly liked the section on making a board with your child. It's a fun craft project that allows you to see what your child is thinking of and what is interesting to them and their dreams and visions. Priceless.It doesn't promise to answer all your questions about life or promise if you make a vision board of money you'll be rich, it's just a nice guidebook on how to create a vision board.Some examples of people who have used vision boards to be successful include Walt Disney, Jim Carrey, and Dilbert creator, Scott Adams.

The book itself is great. The formatting? Terrible.I'm shocked that this poorly formatted a book is allowed to be sold on Amazon. There are entire chunks of the book that just won't load - not just 1 or 2 pages but sometimes 5 to 10 pages are just not loading. I have read comics and graphic novels on my E-Reader and never had a problem.This is very disappointing. Do not recommend the ebook.

I bought this book, primarily because, as a musician, I regularly either buy a book about creativity, or try to learn a newskill, or craft, like dowsing, or cooking a different type of meal. Creative mixing is what keeps my lyric-writing fresh...Joyce Schwarz' book was inspirational, colourful, down-to-earth with fantastic advice, and many different stories of people who used vision boards, and their results. I was so impressed with the different styles of vision boards, and realised thatanything goes, when you make your own. The chapters are well laid-out, and the typeface is easy to read.I'm still in the prep phase, but this is the most fun I've had in a few months! Vision boards can be used for anything; projects, family activities, cosmic ordering, or even wedding planning.There are numerous websites to check out, but at the moment,I have yet to see the website connected to the book,[...].I'd recommend this book, and I am so grateful Joyce took the time to write this book.

Honestly, a lot of blabla. Nothing substantial in it. Nothing that would have inspired me, sorry

Brilliantly inspiring book that encourages the creative side of you without really trying and whether you think you have any or not!

Fab condition. Quick delivery. Cant wait to get started.

Fast & efficient service. Product as described. Would use again! :-)
