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.    

Establish New Habits with Practice of Repetion to achieve Resolutions

According to the article "Wired for Success" by Ray B. Williams published on December 27, 2010 on Psychology Today, almost 50% of the population makes resolutions for each New Year, but most of them fail to follow through the goals as the year progress.

Williams states that "Making resolutions work is essentially changing behaviors and in order to do that, you have to change your thinking and "rewire" your brain.  Brain scientists such as Antonio Damasio and Joseph LeDoux and psychotherapist Stephen Hayes have discovered, through the use of MRIs, that habitual behavior is created by thinking patterns that create neural pathways and memories, which become the default basis for your behavior when you're faced with a choice or decision. Trying to change that default thinking by "not trying to do it," in effect just strengthens it. Change requires creating new neural pathways from new thinking."

This apply to many aspects of your life.  You have to establish your mind setting to achieve any small and big goals. The well known motivational speaker, Brian Tracy, says "Habits of medium complexity  can be quite easily developed in 14-21 days through practice and repetition." in his article, "Seven Steps to Developing a New Habit." 

I am now in Day 4 of this practice, and it seems to be working well already. I can not start the morning without doing the little things that I have decided to do to improve myself.  Accumulative and continuous small actions seem to lead to a goal that you aim to achieve.
