So, what do I mean by Imagine Your Way to Success? This is creating mental pictures in your mind of what you want, and some tips on getting started.
First you must decide EXACTLY what you want.
For alot of people, this can be difficult because they don't know what they want. It can be more money, better health, or a better job. However you must know what you want in order for this to work.
Once you decide on what you want, you must now have the fake it till you make it attitude. You must picture yourself as already achieving your goal. It works best if you picture details as well, for example say you want a new boat, you must picture what kind of boat, the length, the motor, how many bedrooms does it have, how fast does it go, who is going to be on the boat with you. I think you get the picture.
Imagine that you are watching yourself on a movie screen doing exactly what it is that you want.
Choose the same time each day for your mental pictures.
It works best for most people if they create their mental pictures first thing in the morning and last thing before they go to bed. However, that is up to you.
The important thing is to do it for 15 minutes every day, seven days a week for six weeks. This will make mental picturing a habit.
Make sure you will not be interrupted.
Make this YOUR time. If you need to turn off the phone or hang up a DO NOT DISTURB sign and let everyone know that it is to be honored.
Accept all mental pictures as positive images. Imagine yourself being successful. In the movie of your mind see yourself acting and responding the way you think you should. Picture yourself as if you had already achieved your goal. Be confident and happy.
Remember that the subconscious mind can't tell the difference between a real experience and one that is imagined. It agrees with every suggestion the conscious mind gives it. An imagined experience is perceived and acted on by your subconscious mind exactly the same as a real experience.
When you focus your imagination on the way you wish to be, your conscious mind directs your subconscious mind to accept these new images, and since your subconscious mind will agree and comply with the images your conscious mind creates, acting as if it were true will in effect make it true.
Part of your mind is going to try to distract you with things like; did I turn off the coffee pot? Did I lock the doors? Did I feed the dog? Just tell it to shut up and that you will deal with it later. Then return to your mental pictures.
Remember that your attitudes, feelings, and behavior change in the direction of what you believe to be true. Through your imagination you can create positive mental pictures of what you want and act as if you have already achieved success.
