"The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind." WILLIAM JAMES
A wonderful power has been put within your control; a power so strong it has the ability to transform your health, wealth, love, passion, life and future – all you have to do is understand, appreciate and recognize it.
One method of consciously utilizing this omnipotent power is visualization.

Visualization is the process of making mental images – these images will serve as the pattern from which your future will be sewn. Your job is to make the images, or your pattern, clear, big and beautiful. Make it big. Make it really big. The only limitations are those that are set by you. There are no limits! Create it in your imagination – make it clear and vibrant – hold it in your mind and you will gradually and constantly bring that ideal nearer to you. You are, ultimately, what you think about all day long!
Does all this sound a little foreign to you? Does the thought of using your imagination and thoughts to mold and shape your future sound a little, well, crazy? Before you throw aside these thoughts and go back to your old way of thinking, stop – and realize that you cannot change your future by doing what you've always done – that includes thinking all those conventional thoughts you have been taught and raised to think. Come back – give it a chance – we promise you won't be disappointed.
The first step in the visualization process is to see your ideal in its entirety, or idealization. It must be solid, firm and permanent because it is the plan on which you are going to build. Changing your mind, hopping all around in your ideals is not going to bring you the results you desire; mental labor is necessary if you are serious about creating the life of your dreams.
If at first you are unsure, or your vision seems to be a little hazy, don't worry – just focus on it daily until your picture becomes clear. There is no reason to hurry or anxiously try and "speed things up". There will always be enough time, and besides, why rush? This is your life and future you're planning!
Your vision may start out dim, but it will begin to take form, and more and more details will emerge. You will gradually develop the power by which you will be enabled to formulate plans that will eventually materialize in the objective world.
When you visualize, then you materialize!When you have that picture in your mind, always and only think of the end result: the Universe always knows the fastest, most harmonious way to your dreams.
The Universe does everything it does with zero effort – it doesn't see requests as bigger than another or smaller than another.
Take a minute to visualize the next paragraph, after reading through; it may help to close your eyes.
You have been transported to a snow covered mountain side. Look around you at the beautiful, clean white powder, the snow covered evergreens and pines, the large rocks and breathtaking view of the range around you. Breathe in the fresh, cold air, smell the pine, the sap; watch your breath in the air as you breathe out. Feel the cold on the end of your nose and the warmth of your heavy coat. Hear the crunch of the snow as you walk around and explore the area. You feel alive, well and refreshed – breathing in the clean cold air and filling your lungs with the openness that surrounds you.
Did you find that exercise easy? Could you feel the cold on your nose, hear the crunch of the snow underfoot and sense the open and grandness of the mountain? Deeply experiencing every aspect of your visualizations is really important in the manifestation of your thoughts.
"You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you." JAMES ALLE
Thinking through your ideal with colorful mental clarity is very important – but if you only do it once and expect your dreams to then unfold before you, I'm afraid you have it wrong. You must repeatedly hold you image in mind. You must build it firmly and
Concentrate on the things that you want, not on the things you don't want. Create perfect ideals only. Pay no attention to external conditions, make your world within beautiful and opulent and the world around you will express and manifest the condition which you have within. You will realize your power to create ideals and these ideals will be reflected in the world around you.
Expect the things you want – don't expect the things you don't want.Those who always worry of lack and fear will be brought poverty, lack and every form of limitation they imagine. Your mind does not hear "I do not want to be poor", all it hears is the "poor", so it thinks poverty must be what you want and works to bring you what you are asking for. Just as the law operates perfectly to bring about fear and limitation, it will certainly operate in the same way to bring about abundance and opulence for those who entertain thoughts of courage and power.
For most of us this is very hard. We are anxious, and manifest anxiety, fear and distress. We want to do something, to help, to get our hands dirty and be shown proof that we have indeed set the Universe in motion to bring us what we want.
We are like a child who has just planted a seed and every fifteen minutes goes and stirs up the earth to see if it is growing. By doing this, the seed will never germinate, yet this is exactly what many of us do in the mental world.
The seed must be planted and left alone. This doesn't mean to sit and do nothing. New channels will be constantly provided and new doors will open. Keep your eyes and mind open to the new opportunities that will present themselves to you.
Remember to trust, to let go, and let the seed germinate! The more you can trust in what you cannot see happening, the faster it will be brought forth to you.We can only see what already exists in the objective world, but what we visualize already exists in the spiritual world. This visualization is a substantial token of what will one day appear in the objective world if we are faithful to our ideal.
Thought force is the most powerful means of obtaining knowledge, and if concentrated on any subject will solve the problem. Nothing is beyond the power of human comprehension, but in order to harness thought force and make it do your bidding, work is required.
Remember that your thoughts are the fire that creates the steam that turns the wheel of fortune; upon which your experiences depend and your future is based!"You are a living magnet. What you attract into your life is in harmony with your dominant thoughts."
