What Victor Hugo Knew And Why It Is Important For You!

“Do you plan your day or do you just let it unfold? Some people prepare and make lists. Others wait to see what happens. There is good reason to make plans for your day. Just as you make plans for travel you want to make plans for each day. Check out this quote.

‘He who every morning plans the transaction of the day and follows out that plan, carries a thread that will guide him through the maze of the most busy life. But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incidence, chaos will soon reign.’ Victor Hugo

Set intentions for your day. Commit to making those happen. Each day there is something you can do that will make you feel good. Perhaps, it is making your bed, clearing the dishes, taking the dog out. Some domestic task you can determine to get done and do it.

Our Intentions Create Our Reality – Set Intentions – Keep Them

You also have professional or job related intentions you can set. Make that sales call, keep that appointment, turn in your reports, get your deadline work done on time. Whatever it is you can set the intention and carry it out. Each day do a task you can be proud of.

There are mental mindset intentions you can set and keep. Resolve to repeat your affirmations 2x a day. Or choose to do it a 3 or 5x. Resolve to stay positive; look on the bright side of a troublesome situation. Commit to inspirational reading for 20 minutes.

Health intentions. Make it a point to eat healthy. No processed food. Commit to walking for 20 minutes 2x a day or 1 hour. Commit to reducing the number of cigarettes you smoke by 1. Commit to exercises for 5 minutes. Commit to drinking more pure water.

Live Less From Old Habits And More From New Intended Habits

Relationship intentions you can set include saying I love you and looking into the eyes of your family members or partner. Doing something special the other person wants. Calling a friend. Helping a co-worker. Smiling and nicely treating a stranger or someone elderly.

Financial intentions include paying yourself first when you get your paycheck Put 20% aside for yourself. Stop buying expensive coffee. Save that money and invest it later. Begin to learn to manage your money. Investigate investments. Donate to a worthy cause.

There is always something small you can do in the different areas of your life. Take a look and find small things you can do daily. Make these habits by repeating them for 90 days. SMALL THINGS you will do consistently for long enough to become habit. Then switch.

Everything That Happens Begins With An Intention – Notice This

At the end of the day celebrate what you did. Make a big deal about it no matter how small or insignificant the task seems to be. What is important is you planned to do it. You decided and committed. You kept your commitment. You did it! Be grateful and celebrate!

When it comes to weekly, monthly, yearly goals or your big giant dream you can work in a similar manner. Set an intention for making some aspect of it happen. Complete a portion of what is needed each day. Even a small bit is better than no bit. Inch your way forward.

As long as you are progressing toward creating what you want by taking actual action steps you are doing it. You are in the process of manifesting your dreams and creating your future. You are taking charge. You don’t have to try to do everything at once. Bit by bit.

Another Name For Intention Is Decision Decide To Do It And Do It

As you grow accustomed to doing and successfully completing what you commit to you might add some more. You’ll know when it’s right. Never bite off more than you can chew. Keep it interesting and stretch yourself a bit. Stay a bit hungry. Don’t be too comfortable.

Lastly, make a commitment to write down 25 things you feel grateful for in the different areas of your life. Promise to look for what is good and new. Feel really thankful for what you already have. Intend to focus on appreciation at least 3x during the day. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How To Use This Acting Tool To Get Everything You Want In Life

“I am an actor. I love to pretend. I can pretend anything and master it. That is what acting is all about. Acting as if your character and the story is real. Being believable by believing it. Thinking the thoughts the character is thinking. I love being an actor. I love pretending.

‘Act As If’ it is real – is a tool for creation. Imagine the good you desire as though you already are in possession of it. Visualize yourself already as the person you wish to become. Pretend it! When you do you ‘trick’ the brain. It doesn’t know the difference.

Doing this aligns your inner resources. It helps realize your desires to make them crystal clear. You infuse your dreams with energy, passion and enthusiasm. You rehearse living your desires right now. You enact, what it IS like, by acting what it will be like right now!

To Enjoy Success One Must Travel In Advance Of The World

You think, feel and act as you would think, feel and act when you have what you want. You train your brain and your entire being to accept that this IS who you are and what you have. You live from power and ownership of the good you desire instead of hoping for it.

Use pretending, use ‘act as if’, to give yourself the edge to make your dreams come true. Athletes know the advantage visualization and mental rehearsal gives them, at the micro-muscle level, to improve their performance. Many testify to this incredible power.

Use it. Prepare your mind and your being to accept what you want to have. Living from having it, from being there, helps you clear blocks and limitations. It helps you to plan and know what action steps to take to get your goal. You prepare the soil for the seeds to grow.

To Know And Not To Do Is To Not Actually Know – Apply It

You can read all about it but unless you do it, you won’t know it. Application is the proper fruit of knowledge. You must do it to know the benefit of doing it. Don’t delay. Begin today. Be grateful for all you have now and will have. Practice gratitude because that further helps unlock the floodgates. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Notice all the good things about your life today and enjoy!

When You Don't Feel Like It: Do This

“Expectations can be a blessing and a curse. We should expect the best of ourselves and others and be realistic at the same time. Fear and worry about the future doesn’t support us at all. It is negative rehearsal. It is negative affirmations and negative planning.

While we should expect the best we should also be practical and realistic about it. We can dream fantastically big and not accomplish anything or we can dream fantastically big and take steps to bring it about. We do need to place our attention on what does work.

It has been said there is no such thing as unrealistic expectations only unrealistic time frames. Given the right amount of time we may be able to accomplish anything. Anything is possible. Everything may be possible. Dream big and then step by step. Focus on the first step.

Positive Thoughts Generate Positive Feelings

Proceed forward picking up your goals as you climb each rung of a ladder to get to the top. Keep the large end goal in mind while you succeed in picking up each smaller goal in succession. Work your plan. Your plan need not be perfect, you can always adjust it. BUT…

You still need a plan to get from where you are to where you want to go. You need a road map that you use as you journey. Without a plan or road map you drift. You may find that you must detour along the way but that is all part of the journeying process. It’s okay!

Moving forward is simple. It may not always be easy but it is simple. It can be easy too. We shouldn’t think that it is not. It can be very easy. Regardless, it is simple to move forward step by step. Anything can be accomplished when broken into tinier bits or steps.

Positive Thoughts And Feelings Generate Positive Life Experiences

You can manage it. Want to clean your house? It seems too big a task. Either set a small amount of time to straighten up, say 20 minutes, and do that daily. It takes longer but if you do it repeatedly, consistently for long enough you will get the house clean. Or…

Pick one room at a time, if that works better for you, and clean each room using the same principle. Motivation comes from doing not from waiting to be motivated. This is where our feelings often don’t serve us. We wait to feel like it. That won’t help you when you don’t.

For some it has to get bad enough and then they feel like it. They feel pressured that they must then do it. Some wait until deadline pressures cause them enough pain. Then they act. This manner of doing things works but it isn’t very pleasurable. Your choice.

You Can Choose Your Thoughts And You Can Change Your Life

My main premise is very simple. Whatever one thinks that stops them needs to be examined and managed. Go beyond what stops and into new ways of being. Our thoughts, feelings, behaviors and habits should support us. We should control and dictate them.

Manage your thinking and feeling and you take charge of your behaviors and habits. You get better results because you take control of your life. You may have to train yourself to do it, we all do, but then train yourself. Train as a champion does. Make it happen!

Be rigorous and dedicated to bringing about the positive changes you desire. Don’t slack off. Be committed. A champion knows that to win gold tomorrow they must keep training today. They train even when they don’t feel like it. They control their thinking and feelings.

Every Thought We Think Is Creating Our Future

Look for the good in all. Find the silver lining. Manage and control your thinking. There is only one point in all of this: make your life incredible. Be in charge of your life. Take the initiative. Don’t be a victim. Be a victor instead. Live like you mean it. Live your dreams.

Do little things that bring about change. Go for a walk. Skip or dance and move. Smile more, laugh out loud for a good five minutes. Get a massage. Meditate. Gift yourself in doing something fun. Plant a garden. Do little things that feel good and inspire you. Enjoy each.

Live fully and be grateful for all and you can have the life you want most. It is simple. Don’t let whatever stops you, stop you. Learn to stop, stopping yourself. Learn to move forward progressively and enjoy every single step. Enjoy and delight in all of it.

Success Is Achieved By Those Who Keep Trying With A PMA

The journey can be fun or frustrating. You determine how it will be. You respond to what life throws your way. You can respond well or not so well. It is completely up to you. Many people want big change real fast and are disappointed and give up when it doesn’t occur.

It can happen quickly or it can take time. Sometimes, some people transform instantly, sometimes it is gradual. When it is gradual enjoy it. You and life get better bit by bit. That can be an incredibly joyful process if you allow for it. Focus on what you want and delight.

Delight in bringing it about along the way. Enjoy each moment. Even the rough ones. Get past your stopping or stuck points and your limited thoughts and feelings and move into new powerful dimensions of being. Become invincible and unstoppable and positive! Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Enjoy each moment. Become fascinated!

You Become The Role You Play So Choose Wisely!

“From early on you borrowed the beliefs, values, rules and reasons of others. You made these yours before you could even decide whether you wanted them or not. Your mental programming was set and, experience you had, further supported your adopted mindset.

Of course, it had to support it because, as neuroscience informs us, we live from our programming. Our world view is first fashioned on the inside. THEN what we notice or don’t notice is dependent on that mindset. It is dependent on our Reticular Activating System.

The RAS finds matches in the outer world and within our experience that matches our predisposition. Thus, we tend to think, feel, act and behave from that previous conditioning. We tend to play out the role we have accepted for ourselves from early on. Actors fulfilling a role.

To Guarantee Success – Act As If – It Is Impossible To Fail

In order to make changes we have to change how we think, feel and act. Manage your thoughts, take control of your thinking, and you will change your life. Your feelings and your behaviors will follow. It begins with thought, everything stems from your thoughts.

Think you are already it. Act as if you already have it. When you do will feel it and become it. You play the role. Behave the role, just as an actor does. Think the thoughts of the character and feel the part until you become it.

Act as if you are already a wealthy entrepreneur and you increase the likelihood of becoming one. Act as if you are already happy and you become happier. Act as if you are already successful and you become more successful. It works. You have to do it to know it!

Live As If You Already Have It – Believe It – And It Can Be Yours

You travel in advance of the world by aiming your thoughts, feelings and behaviors at becoming what it is and who it is you want to become. Act as if, first and reap the rewards, second. Plant the seeds first and then second you reap the harvest. It works this way. Do it!

Act as if you already have the home, car, money, career, whatever it is you want, feel grateful for already having it and you open the doorways of your own neurology to be more capable of getting it. You put your brain power on the side of making it happen.

Many people don’t act because they are afraid, they worry, they doubt they can’t get it or do it. They hope they might become it but don’t believe they can. When you act as if you engage your subconscious mind in helping you make it your reality.

Act As If You Are Already That Person You Want To Become

You pretend it fully. You act it. You rehearse it. You do what a happy, successful person does and you learn the thoughts, feelings and behaviors while pretending. You go through the motions as you would practicing a golf swing, or piano, or dance step.

When the going gets tough you get what you practice. If you want to be more successful practice being successful already. Rehearse it. Act as if. You can pretend anything and master it, if you are willing to. So take control of your life and the results you get by doing it now.

Feel the good feelings. Feel happy, rich, confident, attractive, persuasive, now. Practice, act as if, you already are any one or all of these traits. Feel grateful, enjoy it. Practice feeling certainty and powerful and positive. Celebrate yourself and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Don’t miss the fun you can have today!

Personal Change And Social Change: Can We Have Both Pt1

“How do we attract what we want? How do we create it? What can we and must we do to make ourselves, our situations and perhaps, the world much better? What is it we want? Is there a way to improve not only ourselves but the world? I believe there is.

It begins with a dream. It begins with a purpose. It begins with a vision for a better day. It begins with hope and a positive aim to attract and create. It begins with the hope and the faith that we can be different and enjoy what we desire. It begins with optimism.

That is not to say a problem or difficulties are not the trigger. They may very well be and most often are. We want to rid ourselves, escape and get away from something, and move toward a new way of being. What that something is can be many different things.

Secret To Change – Not Fighting The Old But Building The New

We may want to move from illness to health; from loneliness to companionship; from discord to order; from poverty to riches; from war to peace. I believe the world is an incredible, beautiful, wonderful, abundant place, mostly all good, but there are times.

I believe we can find blessings in all of our strife, in all our problems. We can learn, develop and grow from them. Problems can be the catalyst for great positive change. From chaos stars our born. If you believe one version we are all here due to an explosion. Chaos.

Problems and pain have a purpose. Our neurology signals us when inflamed or injured so we can tend to the issue and not continue to aggravate it. Our emotions signal us when our thinking is out of alignment so we can get back on track and feel better.

Your Life Gets Better By Changing It Not By Chance

It seems when things get tough and disorganized that we are getting signals that we are not operating well and need to make some changes. I tend to believe our society, the world, events and circumstances, for the most part, are a signal too.

What to do? Can we change circumstances? I think we can? We can improve our health, our relationships, our finances, and more. We may not have ultimate control, we may not control the weather, but perhaps we do affect or influence it.

Perhaps, we shouldn’t think in terms of control but of influence. We can control what we can and are better served to let go of what we can’t control. Let’s give up control and think how we positively influence results instead. Be a positive influence to your own self.

The World Is Changed By Your Example Not Your Opinion

We’ll discuss how we do this in the next post. Meanwhile, focus on what you want, and what you already have. Focus on who you already are as well as who you want to become. Find reasons to appreciate right now and delight in yourself and circumstances.

Be grateful for everything small and large. Search deep to discover more things to appreciate and enjoy. Fill your mind, your emotions, your behavior, your being with delighting in what is because when you do you are attracting and creating more of the same.

Enjoy yourself. Understand that there is a way from here to where you want to be. Take one step at a time and enjoy each step along the way. This is how we create more of what we want. We delight and more delight is possible so celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Spread the good feelings around today!

Principles Of Creation, Manifestation And Attraction You Need To Understand

“You don’t get what you want as much as you get what you are. You recreate and attract what you already IS. Yes, pardon the grammar but what you IS, are presently, is what you get more of. If you are loving you get more love in return.

You create what you already are. If you want riches in the future you need to feel and be rich right now. You don’t get wealthy by feeling and being broke. While the reality is you don’t presently have money you must feel as if you do. Get it? This is how it works.

You attract what you are. You attract what you think about. You get back what already you have. Those who have get more. Those who don’t lose what little they have. It is Scripture. You make happen, manifest, attract what you vibrate at. Karma, is what goes around.

The Universe Never Asked You To Struggle It Is Responding To You

This is why feelings are important. You feel rich, then you are rich, then you make riches happen. You vibrate wealth and you create it and attract it. Every cell in you lines up to make it happen. You are congruent with it. You are wealthy even when you don’t yet have it.

You are grateful for it before getting it. You live a little in advance of the world. Before it shows up you enjoy having it. Another way to think about this is, you put in your order with the cosmic waiter or waitress. You ordered your food. The kitchen is making it.

You will get it soon. As you sit there it is being prepared. You are eager to have it. You plan to enjoy it shortly. You don’t doubt or worry about the kitchen not making it or the waitstaff not delivering it. You are prepared to eat it. As far as you are concerned it is yours.

To Bring Anything Into Your Life Imagine It Is Already There

It is yours already because you ordered it. This is the same attitude you must have about your future. You put in the order. You saw what you wanted. You affirmed it. NOW it is coming. It is on the way. You don’t need to beg, you don’t need to convince it is yours. It is yours!

Accept it. Allow it. Eagerly anticipate it. Receive it. Be happy it is coming. Be grateful it is yours. Delight in it. You are getting what you wanted. This is the mindset. These are the feelings. You are delighted and secure. You are the person who has what is desired.

You are wealthy the material wealth is on the way. You are love the right relationship is on the way. You are the proud new home owner the house is on the way. You are healthy right now. You are whatever it is you desire for the future, right now IN the present.

Your Thoughts Are The Architects Of Your Destiny – Careful

The gap is only in time. The gap is the time between when the order is placed, the seed planted, and the order arrives, the plant grows and you harvest. You reap what you have sown. How you wait determines whether you get it quicker or slower. Do you get it?

If you go into the restaurant and create commotion and prevent the chefs and staff from doing their job it takes longer to get your food, if at all. If you dig up the plants before they bloom you won’t reap what you sowed. You wait patiently and expectantly. Eagerly is fine.

You know, you have faith, you are CERTAIN it is coming. It is on the way. The seeds are growing and one day the plant breaks through. Your birthday is arriving and you’ll celebrate and get gifts. It will happen. Enjoy. Celebrate and wait with anticipation.

The Only Person You Are Become Is The One You Decide To Be

You anticipate what you know will happen. You expect it. So you are able to enjoy and go about other things. When you think about it you think about how great it is to have it. What you think about you become. You think about how wonderful you are it. Understand?

You create more of what already IS! If you focus on lack and worry about bills and don’t feel you have enough that is what you get back in return. That is what you are seeing, visualizing, affirming, being and vibrating. That is what you create and attract.

You are getting what you don’t want. The universe, your subconscious can only respond by saying yes to whatever you have going on inside of you. Your thoughts and feelings run the show. Worry is negative practice. What you focus on you get.

We Receive Exactly What We Expect To Receive

Stop. Create only what you intend. Become deliberate in what you focus on. Learn to control you attention. What occupies it is where energy goes. Where the energy flows is what you create. So instead, be grateful, for the invisible good you want, as if you have it already.

Delight, live as if. Act as if you are already it. Enjoy, delight, and celebrate. Be thankful. Live in gratitude. Appreciate and continue to look for more to enjoy. Life gets better and better as you do. Savor it and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Use today to delight yourself and loved ones even more!

The Second Powerful Way Of Seeing You Must Utilize And Why

Have you worked with the first way to visualize? I hope so. Get good with it, if you aren’t already. Practice, become deliberate with your imagination. Remember what you can conceive and believe you can achieve. Correct repetition, for long enough, builds skill.

Here is the second important way to visualize. These methods are not in order of importance. We do both of them naturally. When you are able to do these purposefully is when you increase your abilities to perform powerfully and productively. You develop great skill.

You can change how you think and live and what you get in life! Playing with these components strengthens your ability to deliberately use your mind in beneficial and creative ways. The more you do it the more you can do, more easily. You ability grows.

The Subconscious Only Says Yes – Make Sure It Is What You Want

The other way to imagine is to see what you see as you look through your own eyes. If you walked along a beach you wouldn’t see yourself you’d see your surroundings. You might see your hands and body some, but not your face unless you looked in a mirror.

Seeing through your own eyes allows you to feel what you would feel right NOW in that present moment. You may feel things even stronger this way because you are imaging what you see, hear and feel in your body not watching it. The feelings are immediate, now!

Either way you can have powerful feelings. When you look though your own eyes you feel it as if it is happening and how it feels. When you watch yourself on a movie screen it may feel more inspiring and motivating. Do both. Be inspired and feel what it feels like to BE it!

Energy Flows Where Your Attention Goes – Focus Focus Focus

Both of these are great ways to visualize. For example, you want to buy a new house. See the house and imagine yourself in it. See yourself with family and friends. Notice everything about the house in detail. Decor, where things are. Be thorough.

Fantastic. Watch yourself enjoy dinner, party, sleep, whatever you do in the house. Be as detailed and specific as possible and enjoy the good feelings you have as you imagine this. Savor the feelings. Feelings are most important. They send this message to your brain.

Keep the feelings. Amp the feelings. If you feel inspired, motivated, happy, proud, powerful, this is good. You use the mental movie to create the feelings. Your brain gets the feelings and goes ‘Oh, Okay I get it!’ This is an extremely important concept to keep in mind.

Believe In Yourself And Your Ability To Create and Make It Happen

The other way to imagine it is to walk from room to room and see and feel what that is like from your point of view. Look through your eyes as you did in the beach example. See the people as you would in everyday life. See their faces, hear their voices, feel their touches.

Imagine these people congratulating you on your new purchase. Feel them pat you on the back, shake your hand and hug you. Hear their voices and what they say. FEEL how good it feels to have this home and their congratulations. You did it! You got what you wanted!

Imagine waking up in bed in the new home, eating your meals. Imagine relaxing in the comfort of your home. Enjoy walking the grounds. Park your car in the driveway or garage. Live the experience of being in your new home from your point of view.

To Live In A New Reality You Must First Conceive Of That Reality

Obviously, you don’t just magically make a new house appear. There is a process of acquiring it. The first step is to know what you want and why. This give you the ooomph for all the rest. You make it extremely desirable. Your obsession. What you must have.

You imagine yourself having it. Living it. Being it! This informs your brain. Your brain works on it. You begin to get ideas, intuitions and insights. This is what it means to begin to take inspired action. You must follow through in everyday life. Your brain works for you.

Imagine scouting the house, taking the tour, buying the house, closing on the house, celebrating, moving in, celebrating some more, feeling wonderful, living in the house. Be detailed. Make it vivid. Make it real. Create the process for yourself.

Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge

Visualize both ways. Affirm it. Declare it with emotion and enthusiasm. Believe it and expect it. Conceive it and believe it! Enjoy creating your future. Feel grateful for what you have! Delight and be thankful! Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Live fully this day!

This Is Why You Don't Always Get What You Want!

“How come it isn’t happening for me? Ever ask yourself that? I do all the right things but nothing seems to work. You have tried, quit, tried again, perhaps. You just aren’t where you had hoped you would be. Do you ever feel like this? It can suck, right? It is no fun at all.

There are a few reasons why that can be the case. We’ll explore a main one in this post. Sometimes, it is so obvious we miss it. Sometimes, it is just so obscure we can’t find it. This post can help, but only, if you apply what you read here in these pages.

When Life Gives You Lemons Why Aren’t You Making Lemonade

Sometimes we bite off more than we can chew. We want too much too soon and don’t really believe we can do it. Keep what you ultimately want in mind but set up a smaller goal first. For example, imagine earning 100 dollars a week more, or 10 K more a year.

We continue on visualization and how to get what you want. I hope you are enjoying this series. Please ask questions or post comments if you have any. We continue into the next post too. So enjoy learning, or reviewing and please apply what you learn and know.

Start smaller and build up. Just as you climb a ladder one rung at at time. Make the first rung of your ladder easy to obtain. Not too easy, it should stretch you but don’t make it so large it seems at possible. Win a few times first and then you’ll have the confidence to go big.

What You Can Conceive And Believe You Can Achieve

Get it? It is mindset first. Get your attitude on and then take inspired action. So see it, hear it, feel it. Imagine it. Conceive it. Make it real in your mind. As Napoleon Hill stated, ‘Whatever you can conceive and bring yourself to believe, you can achieve.’ It works.

Do it over and over, correctly, for long enough and you create a burning desire for it. You come to believe you can do it. Once you believe it you know you will do it. You become unstoppable and persist until you get the results you want. You transform your life.

From within to without. You make the imagined real. It isn’t magic it is brain science and it has been with us forever. From early on in human development wise people learned to capture and utilize and steer the power of the mind. You can too! You only need to do it!

You Eat An Elephant One Bite At A Time

Even though this has been available for centuries few know it. Far fewer use it. Some, even want to prevent you from using it to get ahead, but now you can. The proper fruit of knowledge is action. To not use what you know is to not know. It is not responsible. Do it!

In my workshops and seminars I help guide you in learning how to do this, plus a whole lot more, so you can make your dreams come true. It is a great experience for participant attendees and you can do this on your own to. Take the time to learn to do it today!

Do it! Take action and the world becomes your oyster. Practice and keep the faith. Keep it light. Have fun. Enjoy the process. It isn’t an overnight miracle. It takes time to get the results. The miracle that does instantly occur is everything changes the instant you start.

Action Is The Proper Fruit Of Knowledge – Apply What You Know

Once you decide and follow through on your decision you initiate the process. It begins. Just as it takes time for a tree to grow the seed you planted for your future good can take time to manifest, but your life begins to change right away! It is a great trade.

You begin and everything changes. So live with gratitude and appreciation. Be thankful you got on the path. Visualize, affirm, ask positive questions, fill your mind with positive power and know that you are making your life they way you want it to be. You took action.

You made a decision to bring about good things in your life. Be happy. Be persistent. Never lose sight of the good you started. Help others do the same. We benefit when we benefit others. Read and listen to inspiring material. Hang with positive creators. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Make everyday fabulous!

The First Powerful Way Of Seeing You Must Utilize And Why

“Do you spend time purposefully visualizing ? If not, it is a practice you will want to embrace. It is so important that you do. Deliberately imagining what you want and how you want it sets your creative mind working to get it. It opens up your imagination and abilities.

Are you enjoying these posts? I hope you are. If you have questions please ask them in the comments. If this is your first time visiting and reading, please go back at least a few posts and read from there. We’ll continue on this topic for awhile and return to it frequently.

There a couple ways to imagine things. One is to see yourself in the image as if you were watching yourself in a movie or video. This is a great way to see how you look, move, sound and interact with others. You see yourself where you want to be and with whom.

Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You Are Right

You can be artistic and add vivid color. You can make the size of your mental movie screen larger, much, much bigger, as when you are in a movie theater. You can put it in surround sound or add music. Anything you can do with a TV you can do inside your mind theater.

You can enhance the image and boost your good feelings. You can improve on this movie in your mind so it is even more appealing and makes the feelings stronger. In Neuro Linguistic Programming we call the components you can adjust Submodalities. For example:

Visual: size, shape, color or black and white, hue, tint, light, shadow, location, near or far away and more. Sound: volume, location, timber, tone, pitch, rate (fast or slow) and more. Feelings: touch, rough, smooth, heavy, soft, pressure, a tickle, location in body, and more.

What You Feel Is What You Get – Feelings Are Important

You can vary any and all of these and make any mental experience less intense or more intense. Taste and smells can be important too. Add in anything that makes it more wonderful. Construct it so it is appealing, inspiring, and motivating for you. Make it incredible!

Make your dreams and goals more desirable, intense and immediate. Movie directors and symphony conductors play with these components. They utilize them to create feelings in the viewer, or listener; the experiencer. You can too. You don’t have to but you can.

Sports coaches direct players to perform in certain ways. Be your own coach, your own conductor and director. Deliberately make the adjustments. Watch your mind movie. Do you like it better? Does it feel stronger? If yes, cool. If not, change it until you do. Get it?

Imagine A Bright Future – In Your Mind Now – And It Can Be Yours

More coming in next post. Take charge. Assume control. Tailor it for the greatest return. Make it wonderful. As you progress you may continue to improve on it. It is your movie make it most appealing. You can always change it back. Just DO IT!

Make it outstanding, lock it in, and visualize it daily! Bless, nurture and encourage yourself as you engage daily. Stick with it through rough spots or times when nothing seems to be improving or happening. You’ll breakthrough as long as you persist. You will!

Delight all along the way. Enjoy it and be grateful. Have fun, practice in the spirit of play. As it has been said, ‘ You can pretend anything and master it.’ Allow yourself to easily grow. Your skills develop faster and you go further when you celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Have a fantastic day!

The Secrets To Seeing What You Want And Getting It

“Successful people, through the ages, have always been ones with vision. They have been those who used their imaginations and their ability to visualize themselves as successful prior to reaching the successes they desired in everyday life. They utilized their minds.

From ancient writings to more modern research the value of visualization and affirmation have been extolled. If you aren’t using these critical tools in your daily life now is the time to begin! Plant the seeds today that can grow into great results in your future.

In this blog post and a few subsequent ones I’ll share more on the power of visualization and some tips for using it to help you make your dreams come true. Remember, you can if you think you can. Visualization IS the way for coming to believe it is possible!

You Get What You Repeatedly Practice – Practice Is Rehearsal

When you visualize and affirm you are rehearsing and practicing. All coaches and athletes, artists and others know the value of repeated correct practice on performance. Actors rehearse for weeks to open a play. Musicians practice. You get what you practice.

Fewer people seem to realize the incredible benefit of mental rehearsal on performance and the results they get in their everyday lives. ‘To enjoy enduring success on must travel in advance of the world’. Create it in your mind and then the rest catches up.

Sadly, most people rehearse, practice and re-live their failures and disappointments, their worries and their fears. They program themselves for lackluster results again and again. Stop that if you do that. Learn to program yourself for success and do what works.

What You Say Is What You Get – Your Words Are Important

It works either way. Either you program for success or failure. If you do nothing your brain runs on default. If that default setting isn’t getting you what you want then YOU must change it. The great news is YOU can! Take control. Visualize and declare your success now!

I’ll share one powerful way to visualize in the next post. Then another one after that. Build your abilities by implementing what you learn. Apply it and practice it. Begin today. Have fun, take it lightly and enjoy the process. Until the next post, and beyond, celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Have a playful day!
