Use Creative Visualization to Get Anything You Desire
Creative visualization is a very powerful process that is used by athletes and increasingly by business people. It can help you be your best, and often to attract things and circumstances you desire as well.
Steps
- Get in the right mindset. Creative Visualization is best used when you are truly relaxed and feel positive...but it can also be used to help you relax and feel positive. Begin by creating a nice environment: perhaps putting on some uplifting music (without vocals, since they can distract the mind), or maybe doing some light stretching or taking a bath or shower first. Next perhaps meditate/relax for a couple minutes. Breathe consciously and perhaps a little more deeply than normal.
- Start to visualize, imagine, feel or picture what you want. We are all different, so some of us will find it easier to start with feeling and some of us will find it easier to start by picturing. However you begin, continue until you can see and feel to some degree what you want happening the way you want it to happen. It is important not to try to control the visualization too much - in fact you might find that it interacts with you, and each time you do it, it gets better or easier to picture more or a better outcome or flow of events.
- Try to focus on visualizing what you are doing especially, since that is truly what we have the most control over.
- Do this daily or nightly for a good amount of time. Try to continue practicing creative visualization regularly to get the most out of it.
- Take good care of yourself throughout the day. Watch for signs telling you how to get what you want, and especially, take any actions you are inspired to take. Your intuition will also lead you in the fastest way to what you want. Don't forget that, yes, hard work is often needed if we are making a big change!
- Focus on what you want, not what you don't want. For example, if you are trying to stop eating sugar, focus on and see and feel yourself doing what you want to do instead. Are you picturing yourself drinking a litre of water and going for a jog? Packing up some carrot sticks and hummus in the morning to take with you?
- Let's say your aim to is to attract a girlfriend - what personal qualities do you see yourself expressing? Are you using your humour? Warmth? Confidence? Where do you see yourself going and what specifically is she like, the woman (or man) you'd like to attract? Specificity is clarity is power - but don't get too serious about this; keep visualizing light and fun.
Tips
- Don't give up if what you want doesn't come in a few days or even months or weeks.
- The Secret inspired many people, but let's face it: if you're starving in Africa and you visualize food coming, or if you are serving a 10 year prison sentence, visualization and belief and you might just get a lot of frustration. If you visualize yourself flying, you probably won't fly.
- Try to do this once a day for 10-20 minutes - but even a few minutes is better than nothing.
- Remember that action is also part of the formula for getting what you want, and sometimes receiving what we want will also require some learning on our part, and that can take time. For example, if you are depressed often because you have a functional B12 deficiency, visualizing yourself happier may not make you 100% happy. Instead, take some B12 already! Likewise, if you are often single because you dress badly, ask your friends how they think you could dress better.
- Summary: visualization is powerful, but it won't make you 'God'. Let people around you support you, take action, listen to your intuition and visualize.
- There are many more tips in books on visualization or meditation that can help a great deal.
- To begin your visualization, you might picture yourself somewhere beautiful. This can really help us relax and opens the heart. Imagine yourself in a beautiful meadow...or in an alpine vista...or by the ocean... then picture yourself doing what you want to do differently...leading to the outcome you desire.
- You are the creator of your life.Visualization is the part which take to your future... to your goal.
Warnings
- Remember, you can't attract a goal you consider impossible unless you work yourself to believe it's possible.
