    Feel like I am behind the times :o - what is your vision board on? I'm trying to think of a creative way to make one for free.

    I use Cardboard from (we have a lot of forms that come with card as a centrefold!) work or maybe you could pick up a notice board somewhere for a £1 try Poundland they are brilliant!

    I must admit that you have inspired me Emzilla was thinking today of my attitude to this debt that I had become so obsessed about paying it off that I forgot to enjoy life.

    So I am looking into an ISA and then will start saving, my CC is at 0% so I can save and "stooze" my own debt and then when the 0% runs out I can pay it off :D

    It will help me focus on being abundant and pay little attention to my debt and more to saving it means I get to be more obsessed about saving than my debt, off to update my sig and my debt diary. I just wanted to say thanks x ;)

    You're welcome :) - I think it's so much more satisfying to see money rising like that, and when you have cleared the card, you will have the saving bug already.

    Good luck with saving that £4k.

    Yay to the ISA :D

    Haven't really been going on Onepoll - I think I've got about £1 on there. Need to pick it back up again really. Has your £40 come through yet?

    Couldn't find any cardboard big enough for my vision board, so I am going to use the wallpaper on my desktop instead. I use my laptop every day anyway and with just one click of a button, I can view my vision board any time I want.

    On it already are pictures of Hawaii, New York and Las Vegas (all places I want to visit - already done New York 5 times but I love it there :o), an Apple Macbook and the bed. Will keep adding to it.

    You could put pics up on your wall mind you but I think its easier to find pics on the web anytime!

    I love the idea of a vision board, I'm going to have a look round my flat at the weekend, see if I can find something suitable to make one on.

    Mine is all going to centre round one of the same points as you Emz - I want to be a writer.

    Have already started this month with writing online articles so let's see where it leads :D
