Thoughts, Definite Desire, Relentless Determination and Persistence. All these things we have been discussing and all are crucial in our quest of making money abundant in our lives.
Reflecting on these concepts reminded me of another potent tool that, if used, will propel us toward our goal. What is this powerful tool? Visualization! The mind is such a powerful force that it can turn a dream into reality. I'm not speaking of the dreams that invade our sub-conscious mind while we sleep. I'm speaking of dreams we consciously create. The Founding Fathers of the USA dreamt of a country that allowed freedom of thought and religion. That dream became reality and so can your dream of financial success!
Seeing Is Believing
Let's bring all this talk about visualizing and dreaming into context. We've discussed having a Definite Desire and the persistence to keep moving forward toward your goal. If you can also see yourself already having attained your goal, already in possession of the money you seek and all that goes with it, you will be bringing into play the powerful influence of your sub-conscious mind. The mind is the greatest "computer" ever designed and it is possible to program it in ways that will help you achieve success. If you can create a burning desire and convince yourself that you are accomplishing your goal, your sub-conscious mind will accept this as fact. What this does is create a different state of mind from the inside out for the mind will come to take on the nature of the thoughts that dominate it. Ever know someone who is always negative, never having anything positive to say, always seeing only the down side? That persons' mind is dominated by negative thoughts! If your mind is dominated by positive thoughts and you build that vision of yourself having already succeeded then you will achieve what your mind has conceived!
Imagine
The imagination is a powerful force. Albert Einstein knew this and said "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand" . If we cannot imagine ourselves succeeding, then we will not.
My father planted a seed in me as I was growing up. He would often say "Son, you can do whatever you set your mind to" and he was right. Another great man, Henry Ford, said "Whether you think you can or whether you think you cannot, you're right" . Set your mind, know you can and Imagine that you are. Success will belong to you.
