Ba-Gua Goals

Happy 2012! I am really great at setting goals...and not so great at following through with them. I found this great idea on a friend of a friend's blog (here). She loosly followed the steps to creating a Feng Shui Ba-Gua map from this site. I don't know much about Feng Shui, but I had a lot of fun creating my map (I took some artistic freedom in following it). I love it, because it is a visual reminder of my goals.



(from left to right, top to bottom)
1. Abundance- Develop more charity and compassion, aknowledge the love coming from others.

2. Reputation- Be true to myself, march to the beat of my own drummer. Let go of comparison to others. source.

3. Love and Marriage- Celebrate the love and have fun.

4. Health- Cook and eat more whole foods. My friend Jane has completely inspired me (check out her food blog). I want to get better at yoga, and to remember that having a sense of humor is really healthy! source

5. Keeping the Plan of Salvation at the center of my life (hence it's position in the middle). Attend the temple, and recognize my potential.

6. Creative- Have the courage to ACT on inspiration/new ideas and always try try again.

7. Knowledge and Self Cultivation- expand my reading, both fiction & nonfiction...take an art class.

8. Career- visit the art museums at least once a month, apply for internships, and be prepared/enthusiastic for my students.

9. People- treasure the kindred spirits in my life, and be open to friends of all sorts.

I'm really bad at citing my sources. I just drag things to my desktop. If you know the sources, give them to me.
If you make one, send me a link so I can see it!
