If you’ve been following along on Substack for a while (thanks, btw), you’ll know I’m a big fan of vision boards. We’ve talked about them before: how they’re more than just a Pinterest-worthy collage, how they’re a tool to clarify what you want and remind you daily of what you’re working toward. How they aren’t for ANYONE ELSE BUT YOU so you can literally put anything you want on them. (Of course, you can share if you want- but this is not something you need to slap all over socials to feel part of the conversation.") Vision boards create a visual representation of your goals, bridging the gap between your dreams and the actions you take to achieve them. And when paired with clear goals and habits, they become a powerhouse for both business growth and personal growth.
But let’s face it—sometimes the traditional vision board can feel overwhelming. Sometimes you want to be the crafty person in your heart but when you get down to actually doing it, you’re already over it. That’s where the Voiceover Vision Board Bingo comes in. This playful twist combines the intention-setting of a vision board with the gamified fun of a bingo card. It’s visual, actionable, and customizable—just what we need to keep things manageable and motivating. And don’t get me started on on all the neuroscience of gamification!
Why vision boards and goal setting matter
By putting your goals into a tangible format, you’re training your brain to look for opportunities to make them happen. Combine this with habit formation—the small, daily actions that build up over time—and you’ve got a framework for success.
In the voiceover world, where it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of tasks (auditions, emails, marketing, tech upgrades, oh my!), a tool like this can help you stay organized and energized. Goal setting and habit formation are your antidotes to overwhelm. They take big, intimidating dreams and break them into bite-sized actions.
How to use the Voiceover Vision Board Bingo
This bingo card is your roadmap for the year. It’s filled with pre-filled squares (to give you structure) but the cool thing is you can customize it based on your unique goals. Here’s how to make the most of it:
Print it out or upload it into Canva to digitally customize it.
Cross off completed squares to track your progress and celebrate wins.
Use it as a weekly check-in tool. How many squares can you realistically tackle in the next seven days?
Share your board on social media IF YOU WANT and tag me using #VoiceoverVision. Sharing not only keeps you accountable but also inspires others in the community.
What’s on the Board?
I’ve covered all the essentials to help you grow as an actor and a creative entrepreneur:
🎙️ Performance: Stretch your skills, from mastering tricky scripts to recording in new verticals.
💼 Business: Step up your marketing game with cold outreach, client follow-ups, and website refreshes.
🌟 Personal Growth: Celebrate your wins, build healthy habits, and push outside your comfort zone.
🔧 Technical Mastery: Optimize your setup, explore new tools, and fine-tune your studio.
Gamification adds an element of fun and motivation to the goal-setting process. Instead of feeling like you’re slogging through a never-ending to-do list, the bingo card transforms your tasks into challenges. And as you complete each square, you’re reminded of how far you’ve come.
Build momentum and avoid overwhelm
Goal-setting doesn’t just help you grow your business. It also provides clarity, which is your best defense against overwhelm. When you know where you’re headed and what actions will get you there, it’s easier to keep going—even when things get tough. The bingo card is designed to give you that clarity, one square at a time.
So download the card, grab a pen (or fire up Canva), and start building your vision for 2025. Because big dreams deserve big action—and you’ve got what it takes to make them happen.
I’d love to see your boards! What goals are you tackling first? Let me know in the comments or tag me on social media. Let’s make this year your best one yet.
