This Activity Will Make 2026 Your BEST YEAR YET!
Stop Looking Back: The Secret To An Amazing 2026
I am so glad you are here. I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season and getting ready for an amazing year in 2026. I have a wonderful way to help you. This is something that I have been doing for over a decade, and I absolutely love it. Years ago, I used to do a year in review right before the new year, which was looking backwards. It could be fun to see the different things that had happened or that I had accomplished.
The Power Of The Outcome Board & How To Create Yours
When I switched to doing this thing, it really impacted my future and what the next year was going to be like. I cannot wait to share this with you. What I love to do is create what I call an outcome board. You may have heard a version of this before. Some people call it a dream board or a vision board. I am all about things that actually happen. I call it an outcome board. What I love to do is create a board of all the things that I want for the upcoming year, or the upcoming five years.
I do not care because some of the things I put on there are pretty crazy. When I say crazy, they are big, huge dreams. They are things that 100% come true. There are lots of different ways you can make an outcome board. In the “olden days,” we used to cut things out for magazines and put them on a poster board and then hang them up somewhere. In the digital age, I find that it can be really fun to use something like Canva and search for pictures that you want.
One of the fun things about the outcome board is imagining all the things you get to do and feeling what it will be like when they actually happen. Share on XI am still old school. I literally just pull up a PowerPoint and go online searching for pictures of things that represent the experiences and things in life that I want. I have so much fun doing this. It is pretty quick, and you can update it regularly. What is amazing about this is that I keep all of mine. I keep all my outcome boards because the things I put on them happen.
Manifestation In Action: The Maui Vacation Story
It is so fun to imagine them, to feel what it would feel like for this to be true. To watch how they appear in my life. I will give you a couple of examples just because this was really exciting and fun. One was from 2015. I was like, “I really want to go to Hawaii again.” By Hawaii, I actually meant the Island of Maui. I went online and looked for beach pictures of Maui. I got one. I used a snipping tool on my computer and put it on my outcome board.
Within just a few months, probably five months, I got an offer to go at a special discount rate to this certain resort in Maui. When I opened the brochure, I almost lost my mind. The picture that I had snipped from online, which I just did Google Images, was the picture of this resort that was in this brochure. The entire vacation was less than a thousand dollars. It was so crazy.
Sometimes you manifest things around you that really have nothing to do with you, but you get to share in the fun of it. Share on XI was like, “I have manifested this. How fun.” Another one that was really funny to me was that I wanted a certain vehicle. When I was thinking about this vehicle, I put it on my outcome board, and it was a red Porsche SUV because the one I had had was gold. Before I ever got to that SUV, I ended up buying another vehicle.
I got a different color. I did get a Porsche SUV, just a different one because I was like, “I really like this one. I will do that.” When I went in to update my outcome board, probably a month later, to say, “I do not need the red one on here anymore.” I got the dark color that I got, which was like a dark maroon. What made me laugh is that one of my closest friends at the time had just bought one, had bought the car that I had put on there.
2026 Success: Unconsciously Finding Opportunities
Which meant I would get to drive it, and I would get to go do things. It just made me laugh. One of the fun things about the Outcome Board is imagining all the things that you get to do. Imagining what happens. Imagine what it is going to feel like when it happens for you. The other thing is to watch how it unfolds. If you do not get all mixed up in the how. You do not worry about what is going to happen, what you have to do, etc. Sometimes you will manifest things around you in ways that really have nothing to do with you, but you get to share in the fun of it.
This is an activity that will make your 2026 so much more fun. You can do this with the people you love. I love to do this with other people. Just watch how the things that you want will naturally come to you because you are unconsciously going to now be looking for the opportunities to make these things happen. It is so much fun. It is so exciting. It is a great way to start your next year on the right foot. Here’s to your success.
