A Little Of Everything

According to Shakti Gawain, author of the best-selling book, “Creative Visualization,” there are four basic steps to effective visualization:

First, set your goal. Decide on something you particularly want. It should be very specific—for example, a particular house with so many rooms located in such a place, or a particular job in such company.

Second, create a clear concrete picture of what you want. It is important to imagine it in the present tense as already existing the way you want it to be. Picture yourself in it. Include as many details as possible including color.

Third, focus on it often. See it every day. Ponder on the mental picture of your goal constantly. Integrate it in your daily routine. See it as if it is already yours.

Fourth, give it positive energy. Make strong positive statements about the goal or object you want. Imbue it with affirmative feelings of desire, belief and acceptance. Imagine yourself already possessing whatever goal you have established for yourself and have no doubt at all that you will attain it. Imagine the exhilaration or feeling of accomplishment you would experience once you have achieved your goal. Let this be your final vision or thought for the day and surely, what you desire will happen.
