Visualization into Actions

One of the Seven Steps to Developing a New Habit by Brian Tracy is to "Visualize yourself." He says, "visualize yourself performing or behaving in a particular way in a particular situation. The more often you visualize and imagine yourself acting as if you already had the new habit, the more rapidly this new behavior will be accepted by your subconscious mind and become automatic."

We know that many top athletes and entertainers use this technique. A friend of mine, who is an obstetrician, uses visualization before each surgery to heighten her performance.

We have heard the power of visualization everywhere.  There many books and videos; even Oprah has talked about the subject and its power.  The article, "Visualize It" by Jeniffer Baumgartner, Psy. D published on November 8, 2011 in Psychology Today says that visualization is used in psychological practice. Visualization is not only an effective method to treat  patients with depression and anxiety but also to set future positive goals.  Baumgartner recommends utilizing vision boards to put the pictures and images that you would like to have in your future.

However, only putting up your future projection on the vision boards alone do not work.  Don't sit down and wait and see what luck might bring in to your life.  Instead and definitely you have to act on it to achieve your goals.  Practice the Seven Steps to Developing a New Habit by Brian Tracy or any other proven methods that apply to your style.
