Joel Bellevue asked:
One of the most common questions that I receive either online or when Im with friends is “Joel, How were you able to grow your business at such a fast rate”? There are a few things I have attributed my success to, but the one thing I believed that put me on the “fast track” was the the Power Of Visualization. Now as you might imagine, the responses I get back are filled with confusion. I knew they were probably looking to hear some sort of secret marketing tip or new business opportunity, and when they dont hear it, they think Im being secretive or being short. Nothing could be further from the truth, whether anyone believes it or not, one of the most powerful things I ever did for my business was to become conscious of my thinking, and visualized what I wanted.
“If you don’t know where you’re going, how will you know when you get there?”
This is an aphorism that I live by and so should you. People from different religions, cultures, and ways of thinking have given unique reasons as to why visualization is so effective in attracting what we want. Some people attribute it to spirituality, metaphysics, science, or even just as coicidence. The important part is not to over think WHY it works, just get it in your head that IT WORKS.
So with that said, what have I done to visualize or to attract the blessings is my life.?
The first thing I did was purchase as many seminars, audiobooks, ebooks, etc on the subject as possible.
The science Of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
Science of the Mind by Ernest Holmes
The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
You were born Rich by Bob Proctor
The Aladdin Factor by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen
These are books are only scratching the surface of what I have studied, but I do highly reccomend these if you are just getting started.
The next thing you should do is take out a notecard and write exactly what you want to bring in to your life in the PRESENT TENSE.
For example, I would write “I love driving my new black 7 series bmw…” instead of “One day, I hope to have a BMW”
Claim what you want in the present, and believe that you have it now. Take time to write these statements out and when your done put it in your wallet and read it atleast twice daily. Dont just limit it to your finances, include your health, family, relationships, or whatever that is close to you heart.
Dont skip over this step and say “Oh, I already know what i want. Having to write it down really wont make a difference.” The act of writing your dreams down makes it go from just a distant thought to Reality. Just remember to BE SPECIFIC!
Next construct a vision board for yourself. A great example of this was in the movie The Secret, when John Assaraf described constructing a vision board filled with cut outs of the things he wanted in life, specifically his dream home. Everyday for a few minutes he would look at his vision board, close his eyes and visualize he already had what he wanted. Years down the line while showing the vision board to his son, he realized he lived in his very dream home. The EXACT home.
This simply consists of cutting out images and words that resonate with you and inspires you. So cut out the image of the car you’ve always wanted, the home you want, the relationship you want. Do not limit yourself. Take time and enjoy the process. Once you are done, hang your vision board somewhere you will see it daily, and do as John Assaraf did. Take a few minutes every day and visualize you already have what you want. Simple!
When you have a big enough reason why you want to succeed in your business, nothing will be able to stop you.
These are only a few exercises you can begin today to begin to attract the things that you want. Once again I highly recommend reading the books I mentioned above if you have not, I promise you wont be disappointed.
