One technique I recommend to clients to help them move forward in both their personal and their business life is the use of visualization. This technique is beneficial when one is having difficulty in decision-making or in moving forward in their life. Visualizations can help to make these decisions clearer, as you are the “star” of your own movie. Using this technique can put you in the driver seat and help you to play out whatever it is you are wrestling with. For instance, if you are buying a car, and trying to decide between a Lexus or a BMW, picture yourself as if you own either one. Watch as you open the door, turn on the ignition, and start to drive; can you see yourself driving down the highway? Can you smell the leather interior or hear the radio as you drive to your destination? If one feels more comfortable, or more vivid than the other, then that will lead you to make a decision to the car that you picture yourself in more clearly. If you are trying to decide on a career path, visualize yourself in that career, actually working in that job you want. It has been known that our brains will act on what we tell it to do. If you put your goal in front of it, with pictures, your brain will sort and store this information and will lead you toward the goal you have set out to accomplish. We actually have the information needed to accomplish our goals, but we need to give it a “nudge” so it can retrieve the information it has stored, along with the necessary resources that will get us closer to the goal. The use of visualizations will help this process along faster than if we just think about our goals. It’s the Law of Attraction - put your dreams and goals visually in front of you - it will help you to think it, believe and act it - and you can achieve whatever you want. It does take practice but the time and investment you make will be worth it!
