Mine Your Mind

In my last post, I mentioned something about creating 'mini-movies' in your mind. Well, I would just like to elaborate a little bit more on that. You see, each of us has the ability to imagine, but more importantly, VISUALIZE. Visualization is free to all of us but yet, very costly if not utilized simply because with visualization, we can achieve the things we desire much faster than without it. But even better than that, you can achieve the things that you might not have thought possible.

Dr. Maxwell Maltz taught and wrote about this technique, which is known as Psycho-Cybernetics. The concept is basically this: you can get to where you want to be by strengthening your self-image via your own visualization.

Say for example, you desire great wealth. But you think it’s an impossible dream because you are currently $75,000 in debt. Using the technique Dr. Maltz teaches, you set aside some time, maybe just before sleeping, and visualize with your mind, that you are already filthy rich, and creatively imagine yourself doing the things you would be doing as a filthy rich person. The best part about this is, there is nothing to stop you from imagining anything you don’t want to imagine or want to. By doing this, you are subconsciously acting it out and in turn steers you towards making your ‘mini-movie’ a reality.

I tell you, this stuff is intriguing and many professional athletes I have read about seem to take this pretty seriously. And the reason they do is because it simply works.
