Visual Goal Setting With Netflix and Vision Boards #StreamTeam
Just bear with me for a moment, I will explain how Netflix helps with goal setting. But first, let’s talk about visual goal setting.
Setting Goals With Vision Boards
I’ve discussed using vision boards several times in the past. Having something visual in front of you reminds you daily of what your goals are. Going through the process of creating the vision board can also help you refine your goals. Visual goal setting can be done in many ways.
Here is a Pinterest board with several vision board samples including one created for Netflix.

Visual Goal Setting With Netflix
Now you have created a vision board and you have it in front of you every day. What other tools can help you with visual goal setting? Visualization also involves imagining yourself completing those goals. Imagine what you will look like and feel like when you have reached your goals.
This is where Netflix can help you. It may be difficult to imagine something if you are unsure of what is involved. For example, my girls want to be dancers. Watching shows about dancing helps them visualize themselves in those same roles.
Here are some great shows to watch for different goals.
Becoming a Dancer
Dance Moms may have a lot of drama, but it does show how hard the girls work to be top notch dancers. Both of my girls like to watch Dance Moms not for the drama, but for the dancing and seeing girls like them themselves excelling in dance.
First Position gives dancers a first hand look at the inside world of being a ballerina.
Dance Academy give you a look at a school for dancers. These dancers are giving it their all to be the best of the best.
Visualize Becoming A Gymnast
The Gabby Douglas Story is a documentary showing how hard Gabby Douglas worked to become the first black gymnast to win the All-Around Championship in the Olympics.
McKenna is an American Girl story. McKenna wants to be a gymnast and it takes a lot of dedication and determination.
Become a Baker
Watch Cupcake Wars and you will find out all the skills needed to become a top notch baker. There is definitely a lot of artistry that goes into baking.
Running a Business
Undercover Boss shows all sides of running a business. Find out what it’s like to be the CEO and the janitor. This show also shows the back side of many different businesses. It’s really fascinating to see how a business is run.
Have you created a vision board for 2015? What shows or movies do you watch to help you set your goals? Netflix has a huge variety of shows and I’m sure you can find something. Let me know in the comments below what you watch.
Disclosure: As a member of the Netflix #StreamTeam, I receive product in exchange for my monthly series. All visual goal setting opinions are my own.
Yes, I found the visuals more effective. I hung a dress that I used to fit into on my bathroom door and every time I used the bathroom, it reminded me of my goal.
I have used visual goal settings for losing weight but never used TV though. Great tips about using Netflix for that reason.
I love using visuals for losing weight goals. Sometimes seeing what you are working towards is a great reminder. And I’m all for any help whether it be pictures or TV. 😀 Did you find visual goal setting more effective than just setting goals without visuals?
