Beliefs - my ideal will emerge through daily practice - what would this look like if it was easy? - you are making progress even though it’s slow sometimes 4. Affirmations/the truth about myself - Good qualities about myself as a reminder for bad days 5. Pictures of what I want and reasons WHY 6. Career stuff/ Things that I've already accomplished 7. Future - WHO do I want to be in 10 years? - What would she do? - What would she wear? -What would she own? 8. Daily routines that are beneficial for my development - Free Time/free activities 9. Next steps in progress (first cards to switch out)

It's going good so far! Improved my goal planning and focus daily My tip is to implement this structure through a medium that works for you, and do keep me updated!

This method has been changing my life, since I first implemented it as a part of my morning routine two months ago. I can not thank you enough for sharing this simple, yet powerful idea. So many profound and potentially impactful “notes to self” that I have written over the years have been wasted, simply due to the journal-like format I've written them in. Most of them I have never repeated, never reviewed... I have never given them the chance to truly sink in... Having my seeds of wisdom, gratitude, and optimism in a deck of index cards that I can go through within minutes as I am drinking the morning tea has changed that, with great results!

This is genius. First, I was skeptic when you said about this, but when you showed how it looks, and that you have cards not only with goals, but with reminders, quotes etc., it spoke to me.

This reminds me of the "Hipster PDA." Same idea - write stuff down on index cards, clip with binder clip, and carry it around as needed.

A note about your "Truth" section: This has a basis in psychology! Those parts of you that you like and are important to yourself are called domains (if you've ever seen Inside Out, it's kind of like the mind islands), and reminding yourself about those can help you recover from setbacks and criticism and protects our overall positive self-concept, but research has also showed it can help us be more accepting of strangers and work harder and be less upset when others make stereotyping judgements against us.

Some reflection questions that might be nice to include: - What did I fail at? - What did I learn from that? - What are you grateful for? - What do you love about yourself? - How are you in service to others? If you read through your cards in the morning it may be most useful to reflect on the day before. Another possible helpful idea for all the things you want to manifest: write somewhere a chart with two sides. On the first side you write what actions you will take to achieve your manifestations, on the second side you will write the job of the universe/God, i.e. to bring you opportunities etc. This way it will be easier to let go of your manifestations so that you're not obsessing over them.

It's simple, it only takes up one page and I have it always with me ❤️ Oh, by the end of each year I cut that sheet of paper and put it with the others from previous years. I like to see what I've managed to accomplish every now and then 😊 I like your method, too! I like that you've included questions and your values. I see the reason behind it. So simple and effective.

I love the vibe of your videos and how calm and yet inspiring you are, thank you, Lefie! And greetings from Germany in the middle of the night :)

[@aprilayres3027]

same :D

[@eve794]

Is it a coincidence that this video comes up the morning after I was looking at my previous vision boards, thinking I need to start on a new one? I didn't even say it out loud... Thank you for sharing this method! I took notes & already created a mind map of ideas for my vision cards! 👍🏼❗

Started using index cards instead of notes written in random on every paper to organize at least by topic. Using for system put me in mind for the early books on organizing your house and making the habits to keep it clean. Using it for goal process is eminently satisfying and a way to cut up the time to avoid procrastination and solve boredom. Will add this to daily regimen and affirmations are good additions.

[@Joferg97]

Thank you so much for sharing and letting us in on your personal goals. This was very inspiring. I already have the index cards but I want to get some colored ones to help organize my thoughts into categories.

[@MeganVirona]

Similar to this method, I have a vision journal! It’s compact and I take it with me everywhere I go. This helps me get all my ideas out too because sometimes you have inspiration and ideas, thoughts and the convenience of having a journal (or in your case note cards) is so useful

[@authenticallytrish]

I have a whole stack of index cards and now I have a use for them. Thank you!!!

[@doughamel150]

I loved you right away....great presence and humour...been using index cards not exactly like you but along the same lines for years AND you can put all the cards on a board if you need the BIG PICTURE....

[@Bugsley]

Hey Lefie … I’m going to try this out by first using a speech-to-text app, and then I’ll create the cards … BTW I just subscribed to your channel because ~ 1. You didn’t ask me to; and 2. What you have to say is interesting and engaging … Doug

[@Elledontstoppraying]

So did I! Great minds think alike😊

[@juanitasews5782]

Makes sense. I was embarrassed when I showed a friend around my home. It was my private business, but didn't realize it was there. I have TONS of index cards. New subscriber, glad I found you.

[@meriem8738]

I simply love how creative you are ❤

[@shuntah7587]

Love the low light. In most videos its always so bright sunny and super up beat...own the shadow chill.LOVE IT!

[@NFTeve]

“How could this be easy?” Great one

[@melanief967]

This popped up and I loved it. Your voice is genuine and soothing. I like the vision board idea but not the board part. Thank you for sharing this. I look forward to doing this.

[@elainephipps1827]

Love how concise this is Lefie - also, minimalist mood board/journaling ahoy - cheers!

[@dbprofesh]

Here I thought I was so smart with my index cards and fancy binder clips. I have my main stack that could be pinned up on a vision board if wanted, but I don't feel the need as this is tidy and creates less clutter. I keep a nice mechanical pencil and a blank stack in every single purse, carrying tote, car... then when I have something spark I can work it out on a blank card and then refine the ideas later. This has helped me with designing class modules, expanding my business, personal and spiritual development and just shopping lists. Sometimes I'll use washi tape along the top or sides of specific cards that I want to be able to quickly reference back too. I love that you shared this simple and yet SUPER effective way to keep these thoughts organized, especially for those who aren't into journalling. These do fit nicely into a bullet journal too. 😘💖

[@lindaneese9428]

Love this idea. I have done the techno versions and they seem to drop into the background very fast because of the massive amount of techno we are immersed in. A practical down to earth method that I can sit right by my bed and review when I wake up in the morning to activate my possibilities. I also know that writing things down activates Area 39 in the brain and the brain goes about creating any list that is dropped in it. Hence the grocery list you forgot at home and yet remembered almost every item on it. Thanks for this new/old idea. It is a winner!

[@YehowahDaughter]

I actually love this! I am so glad you share it as I would have never thought about this type of system to use as a vision board. I have several little chunky spiral notebooks, now one is designated as my vision book. Its small and will fit in my purse, bag etc. Thank you for opening up a new perspective on an old way!

[@TheGaldren]

Hey, Lefie! Your pack of index cards reminded me of the Zettelkasten method. It is a way of storing knowledge and doing research using packs of index cards that are numbered hierarchically. It is like a tree of knowledge. And because of the numbering, cards can reference each other, intertwining that said tree, turning paper cards into hypertext. Isn't that fun?

[@AmbersDaintyThrowBlanket]

Intriguing, I'm going to look this up. Thanks!

[@pirateslife4me]

I had a high school English teacher who taught us this method and had us turn the cards in along with the finished paper! 👍

[@just1desi]

Hmm. Is it difficult to adopt

[@just1desi]

I do bullet journal these days

[@pirateslife4me]

@@just1desi I didn't think so, and it was educational to see connections I may not have seen otherwise in my notes! 🤗

[@lizipearlthepearlperspective]

Lefie! I loved this video so much that I made a blog post about this technique. I referred to it as the catalog technique bc I call my card sets catalogs. Of course I credited you with the idea because you are a GENIUS! I did this and it raises my vibrational energy SO MUCH! Thank you for creating this. I hope as many people as possible learn about this!

[@mbutterfly4180]

This is great! I just made my cards. I have always wanted to do a Vision Board, but the thought of finding pictures that represent my goals is not my idea of fun, and in fact when I have done it, I usually give up. This was liberating, why does a vision board need to be a board? It doesn't, the value is on naming it, writing it and paying attention. Brilliant!

[@cristin794]

Just circling back to say that I've been doing this since learning about it from you in May and it's really working for me. The cards have evolved and the process has really helped me get clear on my values and purpose. Thanks!

[@Hallelujur]

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEED!!!! Thank you!! 😍 I have been hesitating hanging up a vision board, because I don't want outside input on it. 😩😩 This also makes me super curious on what system and tools you use for GTD. Would love to see a video on it!

[@bogeyworman6102]

Wow. You have changed my life. I have several A3 boards of similar types of info (plus routines for sleep/eating/when experiencing a depressive episode/anxiety/other emotional states that reduce executive functioning). I also really appreciate your style. Really enjoy listening/watching you speak.

[@TheAfterWorkChannel]

Speed of achievement does not equal guaranteeing the achievement... I loved this! We’re pressured to do things quickly, hustle, grind when really we need to give ourselves credit. We’ll all get there eventually no matter how quick or slow

[@briannab5296]

Forward is forward .. no matter how fast or slowly we go.

[@RobynElms]

This was my favourite card Lefie said by far and it’s one I need to listen to for sure ✨

[@vliciouss]

[@SevenUnwokenDreams]

I saw this when it was posted and I wanted to come back and say what a game changer this is for me. I wrote my beliefs, my goals, my values, etc. I like to look at my cards every day and make sure I am making choices that are in alignment with my values and goals. It's helped me be much more productive and confident. Thanks for sharing!

[@BeeldspraakMM]

six times a year i go trough a document with my goals for that year. I limit myself to have 5 important goals i really focus on. 5 goals are easy to remember, so i don't need to have them written down on flashcards, but every day i check if i am still on the right track. I have done this for 5 years now, and it really helps to changes things, end develop in the right direction.

[@AshaneWadasinghe]

This is such a personal, unbiased, honest opinion about the concept. Thank you for this!

[@reginalee8264]

omg, that's what i need! Thank you so much for sharing your incredibly creative way to restructure the tranditional vision board. Cuz it's just no that convience to review on daily practice as you said. And I love your focus on healthy way to pursuit excellence and the list of accomplishments, that's so inspiring.

[@loveoneanother881]

Love this method! Perfect timing too. It's absolutely brilliant in it's simplicity. Such luck to have just found a deck of 3 x5 cards in my ten-lifetime's supply of office supplies that I'm mostly donating. Much gratitude!

[@mkennedy2016]

Love this idea! Not sure if someone mentioned this idea… using different color index cards so you can color code each section.

[@pauladams1915]

Great idea

[@TheeTreyForbes]

I thank the KZbin algorithm for bringing me here because this is EXACTLY what I needed, on the exact day that I needed it. Thank you for making this video. I hope you know that by creating and sharing this strategy, you are helping us become better and helping us change our lives. Thank you!

[@divenursok]

Now I know what that pack of cards in the back of my desk has been waiting for!!! Thanks❤️❤️❤️

[@aishanna]

thank you for sharing this method, now it seems so obvious that to remember stuff you have to recall them a lot but having a wall full of post-it notes gradually changes into a blind spot for me and I don't even read them after a while. this has been so eye-opening, thank you so much

[@NoiramK]

I use a pocket notebook for my calendar, journaling and random thoughts. I only keep a couple of weeks in the future in the calendar, since I complete the book every two months or so, so I was considering index cards instead earlier this week. (This is one of those "I was thinking of index cards the other day, and then someone makes a video on it, what are the chances?"-happenings in my head, though you're not completely describing the same thing.) Really interesting way of using index cards here. Gave me some ideas on how I could use them in my life to better my journaling and such. I'll probably revisit this video once I've gotten a pack!

[@TheresaPigula]

OH My gosh!!! Great idea!!! 💡 So many of these are ones that are just right for me too. Thank you for sharing. 😊

[@MikeKanner1]

I've been using it as part of my journaling routine. At least once a week I review my cards and comment on whether they still apply or how well I am meeting the goals and mission.

[@Simplyluvly]

I love your idea. As I try to be a minimalism, this is the great idea, not clutter at all and still saving a used paper instead hiding our vision goal and keep them in my mind. Thanks for sharing this brilliant idea. I'm gonna try it.
