Create your collage with your computer! If you're like me and on the computer many hours every day, create your vision collage using a word processor like Word or graphic program like Paint. This way, you can use the Internet to gather photos, adjust it whenever you want to, and print as many copies as you need. Having this motivating reminder to achieve your goals on your computer also means you can view it anytime and easily share with friends and family!
MORE INFORMATION:
When using Word, you can easily size pictures and even use one large scenery photo for your background. Use Text Wrapping: In Front to be able to move pictures around easily. Try Format: Picture Styles for fancy effects!

I had a hard time with making a vision college. First off I didn't have a printer and second, I don't get magazines or anything. The other day I was on Pinterest. I made a board and am now using it as my vision college and motivation! There are so many cool things on Pinterest and I can go to any website and pin whatever motivational things I want!!
