Clocking Off with Clouds

If your vision board is the destination, then your systems are your roads.

The reason why you your goals fail isn't because they're too big, it's because your systems aren't working. In this episode, we are breaking down EXACTLY how to build a sustainable roadmap to reach your goals. Spoiler alert: It's all about consistency over perfection.

We cover:
Why a vision board alone isn't enough to transform your life
How to think of your goals as a destination, and systems as the roads
Breaking big annual goals into clear quarterly signposts
The underrated power of weekly planning
How small daily habits compound into unrecognizable change
3 simple rules for building habits that actually stick
If you've ever felt motivated at the start of the year but stuck a few weeks later, this episode will help you last past January. Your new me should last the whole year, not just the first 2 weeks.

This episode is for everyone who wants to make their wildest dreams come true, in a non-woowoo and pragmatic way.

Today we are covering how to make a vision board that doesn't rely on magic. I've gone through so many vision boards that DIDN'T do anything because I wasn't creating them with intention or making my goals clear. This isn't about casting wishes or asking the universe to make our dreams come true, and more about using a helpful tool to visualize our goals.

Step-by-step guide:
Categorize and write down your goals
Make them specific
Gather your pictures
Create your vision board
Make it visible
If you make your vision board and are comfortable with sharing it, please tag me on your stories or posts! I'd love to see them. Wishing you all a FANTASTIC 2026, and may all your goals come true.
