As I said in Creative Visualization Part 1, a visualization can be described as a kind of ‘blueprint’ for the future. And as with any other kind of blueprint, creating a brand new one from scratch is not something that can be hurried into or rushed. Instead, you need to take the process seriously, investing as much time and effort into it as you would into the design of a blueprint for a new home.
The process that is taught in this series on Creative Visualization will guide you through the creation of a brand new vision for your future, and then provide you with instructions on how to use that vision effectively in order to start attracting corresponding conditions into your life. Please take this process seriously and design your vision carefully, because it will serve to shape the future you experience in the coming months and years.
My creative visualization process will take you through the various stages that are required to create a brand new vision of your life that you can use as a point of focus when developing and using your powers of creative thought. It involves defining precisely what you would like to experience in the future and writing this down somewhere so that you can use the written record of your vision in your creative thought work over the coming weeks and months. Your vision can be recorded using pen and paper or on a computer screen, but if you use a computer you will need to print the document out for later reference.
Step 1 – Design Your Personal Life
Begin by thinking about your personal life, which consists of your relationships, your health, your home and the way you spend your spare time. Putting your past experiences to one side, and assuming that you could create your personal life in any way you choose, what are the five things that you would like to have in your future experience? To give you some inspiration, here are some common goals in this area:
- To have a certain kind of home in a certain location.
- To improve your current home in some way.
- To have a certain type of car.
- To have a certain type of pet.
- To lose weight.
- To start a new relationship.
- To improve current relationships.
- To learn a new skill, such as language or a musical instrument.
Your own goals in this area may be similar to the ones above or very different. It doesn’t matter. Whatever your five goals are for your personal life, write them down under the heading ‘Personal Life’. Be as specific as possible, writing down your goals in as much detail as possible. For example, if you want to learn to play a musical instrument, which instrument in particular would you like to learn? Or, if you want to improve your existing home in some way, specify the kinds of improvements that you want to make.
Spend some time on Step 1 and we will continue our discussion in Creative Visualization Part 3…
