What is Visualizing?
Visualizing is a key component of the Law of Attraction. Visualizing is a manifesting technique utilized by some of the most successful people in the world. Many celebrities, athletes and entrepreneurs attribute their success to their ability to visualize it before it comes to fruition.
How To Visualize
- Have an open, positive mind.
- Use your 5 senses -- smell, touch, taste, hearing, and sight.
- Emotions -- tap into your emotions and explore how accomplishing that goal would make you feel.
- Know that it is yours and expect it to happen.
- Let go. Don't worry about how your vision will materialize, that's up to the Universe.
- Be at peace and grateful with your current situation.
Let's exercise! No running required :)
"Close Your Eyes and Imagine..."
Let’s say you’re visualizing a car -- you smell that delicious new car scent, you feel your leather seats, you hear the engine starting and you’re looking at your brand new car, while tasting a delicious iced caramel macchiato. Now, believe that it is yours and let it go. Be at peace knowing that it is coming to you, and don’t worry about how it will happen, that is not your problem to solve. And don't forget to be grateful for the things you already have!
Write down your goals and then explain how each would make you feel. Feel the gratitude and excitement, as if you’ve already achieved this goal. Visualizing is great, but the most important part is actually feeling these emotions and putting all your senses to work.
Here’s an example of one of my visions...
I reached 200,000 views per month on my website. Now that I have accomplished this goal, I feel extremely grateful and happy, because I feel that people are connecting with my words. I am motivated and will continue to be consistent and deliver quality content. I visualize myself buying fresh flowers and tasting delicious coffee to celebrate such an important milestone.Still not convinced? You tough cookie, you!
