Using the Powerful Tool of Visualization: Part I
Apr 10th, 2008 by Academics Plus Tutoring
At Academics Plus, we are big proponents of the use of visualization. My sister and co-founder, Michele and I use it all the time and we encourage our students, friends, and family to use it too. We try our best to pass on to others the reasons we like to use it and the benefits it provides, partly because we benefited from others passing on this information to us.
We have gained much valuable information from Jack Canfield, who has been promoting this practice for some time now. Today, and over the next few days, we will post information from his article, Visualize and Affirm Your Desired Outcomes: A Step-by-Step Guide. Because his article is chock full of information, we decided to break it up into bite-sized chunks so you can make the most out of each piece of information. Here is your first “installment”:

You have an awesome power within you that most of us have never been taught to use. Elite athletes use it. The super rich use it. And peak performers in all fields are now starting to use it. That power is called visualization.
The daily practice of visualizing your dreams as already complete can rapidly accelerate your achievement of those dreams. Visualization of your goals and desires accomplishes four very important things.
- It activates your creative subconscious which will start generating creative ideas to achieve your goal.
- It programs your brain to more readily perceive and recognize the resources you will need to achieve your dreams.
- It activates the law of attraction, thereby drawing into your life the people, resources, and circumstances you will need to achieve your goals.
- It builds your internal motivation to take the necessary actions to achieve your dreams.
Visualization is really quite simple. You sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes and imagine — in as vivid detail as you can — what you would be looking at if the dream you have were already realized. Imagine being inside of yourself, looking out through your eyes at the ideal result.
