When we envision the future, we imagine a “perfect picture” of doing exactly what we want to do. It’s actually more like a movie than a picture playing out in our minds creating a pattern in our brain of performing the actions as if we are actually doing them. By doing this, we allow ourselves to practice in our minds, having and doing what it is we desire. Along with the vision, we must also have a positive mental attitude so that the future we’re envisioning is something we believe is possible. If we don’t believe it’s possible, then no amount of imagination will ever make it a reality. It’s the combination of imagining and believing that will propel us forward to take real actions toward our vision. Those small actions that we need to take to move us toward the vision of our distant future will also require the imagination and visualization of how and what it will take to get there. So, as we can see, envisioning the “big picture” of what we desire in our distant future also takes a smaller, less distant vision. Which when we stop to think about it, is what we find ourselves doing in so many other areas of our lives on a daily basis.
This is the Power of Imagining Your Future
The best way to predict the future is to create it and we all have the ability to create our future through visualization. Visualization is a powerful tool that can be used by anyone, including you! It’s a technique that’s consciously used by all successful people to achieve their high levels of success and believe it or not you use it too, just on a smaller scale and usually without even realizing it.
Of course, just visualizing alone won’t produce results. Results come from putting in the required effort and actions. There are no guarantees and there is certainly no replacement for hard work, but with some focus, belief and an imagination what you envision will soon become a reality. Before anything can become a reality, you need to first create it in your mind.
“The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.” – Arnold Schwarzenegger
By making a conscious effort to consistently practice visualizing and believing in whatever it is you’re imagining, you’ll be on your way to creating the future you desire. It will take time and patience to reach the vision you have in mind for your future. So keep working on the individual, smaller goals and visions because that is what will ultimately get you to your future vision.
Set financial goals, have a positive mental attitude, keep a money focused mindset and envision the future of financial freedom. When you stop to think about how anything is created, you begin to realize and understand that it’s made up of smaller creations strung together to make up the “big picture”. There’s no difference when it comes to wealth creation.
