Visualise and make it better

Once you know what your dreams are and you realize that they can become a reality, it is time to start putting these focuses into action. This first technique we are going to use is used worldwide. All this means, literally, is making a picture from your mind, and seeing this picture in your mind's eye. We have all heard the expression 'a photographic memory'. We all have the ability to develop a photographic memory. To imagine something so strongly that it becomes a clear picture that we can see in our mind, or imagination. It is an extremely useful method of improving techniques for mastering such skills as playing any musical instrument, horse riding, typing, driving a vehicle, flying a plane, etc., also to develop a future life full of dreams and desires being fulfilled.

Let's suppose you were learning to play the piano, one of the first skills you would have to master is the ability to play the scale of C major.The technique of playing the notes of the scale and playing smoothly can be vastly improved away from the piano without touching a single note. All it would require is to concentrate on picturing a piano, and imagining yourself playing the piano. To make this technique of visualization work, really work and produce results, the picture has to be clear, and correct.

To become proficient at playing scale C major requires not just a picture in your mind's eye of yourself sitting at a piano and playing. But, mentally seeing the actual notes and your hands playing the correct notes, with the correct fingering. Thumb, first finger, index linger, followed by thumb under onto F etc. The exact and correct way to play the scale. So before visualization - or using photographic memory - the information has to be there so that the pictures we visualize are clear and correct. If the scale was wrongly remembered and practiced wrongly during visualization, it would be extremely hard to unlearn it.

These points apply to whatever the technique of visualization is being used for. Whether to improve a skill or to improve your lifestyle by visualizing what you would like. Remember we discussed how vitality and energy, in fact life itself is given to what we think about, because thought has the power of creation. We have also just discussed how important it is to visualize something in the correct way so that the picture is clear and correct. The results will be correct if the information pictured during the visualization is correct. From the information gathered from the magazines and literature you have collected you will already have at least one item that you desire: at least one product of wealth. Here are the instructions of how to obtain your desire, using the technique of visualization.

Let's take a car as an example. Suppose your choice was a Mercedes. Due to the literature you have collected and the showroom you have visited, you would know the following information: the color of your car, the shape/design of the car, the color of the interior, the ceiling, the dashboard, shape of the seats, inside the boot, size etc. Everything even down to the smallest detail of what's on the dashboard. What color, size and shape the steering wheel is. So your next step is to bring that information to life in the way you want. Through the technique of visualization you can give life, energy and vitality to a thought creation. There is no need to give any thought as to how you can afford the item, forget that aspect. The finite (literal meaning limited, ending) cannot tell the infinite (literal meaning - limitless, endless, boundless never ending) how to bring something to pass.·

Nowm make yourself comfortable, in a quiet room. Close your eyes, to avoid the distraction of objects around you. Mentally picture the Mercedes in all its detail, slowly, patiently, in a totally relaxed way. See the bright shiny new paint, of the color of your choice, the bright shiny chrome, clean wheels and new tires, etc.· Enjoy the beautiful design and shape of the car. The brighter and more brilliant you can imagine colors, the stronger and better the results will be. This is an important aspect of visualization. Never, visualize anything in a drab gray way, unless you want drab gray results.· Build a scenario around the car of your choice (in your imagination). See the car keys in your hand. Open the car door, (driver’s side) and ease yourself into the seat; shut the door. Put the key into the ignition; click the seat belt on. Start the engine and drive off in your car.

You could imagine yourself showing the car to your partner, parents or a friend. Another important aspect of visualization is to couple it with feeling. To bring visualization alive and give it extra strength, feel the happiness as you drive around in your Mercedes.If you're not sure what we mean, let's put it this way. If you were to walk into a room that had paint peeling off the walls, with damp patches on the walls and a smell of dampness, you would feel at a low consciousness level, a low ebb.If you then walked into the next room, that was clean, with newly painted walls, you would immediately feel better, uplifted, on a higher consciousness level.

It is important when visualizing that you work on lifting up your consciousness as high as you can; feeling as good as you can. The best and easiest way is to imagine that the Mercedes is already yours. If you only experience that feeling that sensation of lifting your consciousness for a split second at a time at first, that is excellent. With practice and in time, you will become proficient in retaining the feeling for longer periods. It is pure magic, all effort is worthwhile. It is an important part of achieving results. The senses tell you that you can't afford a Mercedes, you're only dreaming. Cheat the senses, ignore them, ignore rational arguments of the logical mind, and rise above that level of consciousness and feel the happiness, pleasure and joy that you would feel at owning a Mercedes. Whatever your choice of desire is, that is how you go about visualizing them. If it is a large house, then visualize yourself in a large house. In just the same way, see everything in your imagination. See the kitchen, the lounge etc., even if you design them around pictures in the magazines or brochures you have been collecting. If you live in a city and yearn to live in the country, then visualize yourself, in a house, cottage, mansion or whatever your choice is. Perhaps a garden surrounded by beautiful countryside. See yourself go for a walk in the countryside.

Now you can see why it is important to actually know what you want from life. If you don't know, then it is easy to end up with a life that is not to your liking. Whatever you think about eventually comes to pass in your life. I think it is fair to say that most people know without being told that a hypochondriac eventually does become genuinely ill. Because their thoughts are always on illness, their bodies eventually manifest an illness. Likewise, any person who lets fear of impending tragedy, or who is all doom and gloom, is acting like a magnet to attract just that. Magnet and magnate are two very similar words in spelling and sound.If your thoughts are positive and happy, and with total faith you imagine pictures of wealth and happiness, your magnetism will make you a magnate (tycoon). Can you see how these words are so similar?Visualizing what you desire is a powerful technique for attracting your desires to you. Don't crowd your mind with too many different ideas, dreams or desires.Jumping from one to another too quickly, will cause confusion. It is far better to concentrate on visualizing definite items or projects one at a time, until you become extremely proficient at seeing that particular visualization very clearly and easily.In this way you can build your confidence. As you achieve results from your efforts, then you can build on the results and the confidence gained. So, do you see what is the benefit about going slowly and building on your results, and building your confidence?If you start with too many ideas that aren't developed into clear-cut pictures, the results won't be very good.

When you are visualizing you can be likened to a sculpture. Once a sculpture is started, you wouldn't leave it half finished and start another one, because you could land up with several unfinished projects. In the same way, it too many ideas are worked on at the same time, the results would not be harmonious, but muddled and chaotic, as a reflection of your thoughts. As long as you can remember the fundamental basic law, which is: what you think today, will become tomorrow. In other words, today, now, you are building your tomorrow, your future. It is up to each of us individually to choose what our tomorrows will be like. To ensure your future will be what you desire it to be, ensure your thoughts are constructive and motivated by the highest degree of honesty and integrity. Above all, endeavor to be true to yourself and others. You now have the technique of a powerful tool, visualization, that can and will produce results, to begin planning a better wealthier tomorrow. To carry it out successfully needs above all, the ability to concentrate. Unfortunately, in the society we live, concentration is not a faculty that we are encouraged to nurture. In tact, it does the opposite, it destroys our ability to concentrate. Concentration has to be worked on and developed. It is essential for obtaining good results in visualization, and I would even go so far as to say that the ability to be single- minded and concentrate is essential for success in business. So in any business to develop this ability is a boon. To be efficient due to concentration is to achieve more in less time.

You've already begun to develop concentration with last month’s exercises. First, learning to relax and then consciously halting the minds' constant chattering thoughts. For this month, continue to carry out that exercise for 5 minutes, increasing the time it you can. If you find that out of 5 minutes you achieve only 1 minute of quiet, then that is fine. You will still reap the benefit of clarity, peace and a growing awareness and control of your mind, as well as helping to increase your concentration.Just do your best, because the results will be worth the effort.

The following exercise also helps to develop concentration to make visualization easier and more effective. Practice it once a day, it's great fun. Concentration is getting focused.

Stand with both feet together, and raise your arms straight out at the sides until they are at shoulder level. Without looking at your feet, or anywhere except this chosen point ahead of you, slowly walk 10 steps forward and then 10 steps back, by placing the heel directly in front of the toes of the other foot each time.After the first week, repeat the exercise once a day for 5 minutes, allowing your arms to be placed at the side of the body in normal walking position when the arms start to ache

Carry out all exercises for developing your powers of concentration. Also, consciously endeavor to work on improving your concentration in life generally. Use the relaxation techniques whenever it is needed and constantly pull your mind back if it starts aimlessly wandering over meaningless trivia. Spending between 10 - 15 minutes a day visualizing products of wealth and then spending the rest of each day being negative will not produce results of any worth. As soon as negative worrying thoughts rear their ugly head, remind yourself what you think about you are giving energy to. Remember, the Sky is the Limit! Only the limitation we ourselves place on our projects and lives, prevent us from going further. Don't waste precious energy, yours or anyone else's by wasting any time in negative talk, positive action is what makes money, along side Inner Power, which you are already learning to use.

There is no trying, either you do, or do not. It is best developed in silence, in the depths of your own being.You want to be a success, and achieve great financial rewards, so go for it, cut through the bonds of doubt. Finally, times of quietness of SILENCE are ESSENTIAL for success. Go for a walk, relax, clear the mind and allow your inner intelligence and intuition to guide you in your daily life and dealings. One correct action is far better than 100 wrong actions. Spend 10 - 15 minutes a day - up to 3 times a day - visualizing the first goal you want to achieve. To work visualization needs to be accompanied with a warmth and goodness of heart. Only a desire to bring about that which is good and brings joy. Approach visualization from the God ward side - not purely from mental facilities.

Keep yourself relaxed

Anytime the pressure of life or work become too much just relax and let go. There is no need to consciously work all the way down the body' every time, as it is not always possible. All you have to do is silently declare relax and let go; relax on the word 'relax' and let go on 'let go'.

You will find that you have a lot more energy, physically and mentally, because tension causes tiredness of both. etc., command your mind to stop the thoughts and repeat to yourself, "I don't want to give vitality and energy to problems. What I think about is what I am giving energy and vitality to. I want to give vitality and energy to wealth. I must think wealth and abundance not lack."

If your desire is a 100 acre ranch in Australia or America with horses and cattle, and a large especially designed ranch house, don't say, 'I'll never be able to afford that, so I'll look at a 'practical' house, the average size in England and have a couple of horses instead.'
No dream is too high to reach ~ Just unreachable if not given a chance.

Master your thought processes

Learn to master your thoughts and you'll find it easier to achieve anything

Take up your position again in the same quiet room, and this time prepare yourself to begin exercising control of your mind.Relax. Relax totally and completely. If you are unable to, or find this difficult then patiently go through your entire body repeating relax and let go, just as you did earlier Then, for 5 minutes think about nothing. This will eventually stop the thoughts whirling endlessly. Don't try too hard, it is more of a 'letting go'.

In the early days you will find that virtually every second, your mind, totally of its own will, begins a train of thought. Each time it does, just gently block it, stop the thought, and think of nothing again. Don't get distressed at how easily the thoughts come crowding in. Keep your patience, keep your faith at achieving an empty mind clear of all thoughts. Don't give up because it is difficult. I am showing you how to become a millionaire if you want to. Relax, keep trying. Don't pressure yourself, let go.

Don't try the exercises for more than once a day at first. However, if during the working day, or while relaxing, you become aware of your mind wandering aimlessly, with no constructive purpose, then clear your mind. But, don't pressure yourself too hard, you'll end up with a headache. As the saying goes, 'Rome was not built in a day', and even becoming aware of and recognizing the fact that an untrained mind is so unruly is a great achievement in itself. Most of the population has no idea of the enormous potential of the human mind, of the immense power of controlling thoughts, and then directing them in a definite direction.

Learning how to be focused pays enormous dividends. Think about these few points:


Poor countries are poor in money yet have most of the world's natural
resources such as gold, oil, coal or iron.

The rich countries want
to pay as little as possible for the goods they buy, which results in unfair
trading.

Many wealthy companies trading in wealthy countries
purposefully set up factories in poor countries employing staff on poverty
wages.

Half the population in West Africa goes hungry while they use the land to
grow cocoa instead of food for their own countrymen. Too much cocoa is grown for
the wealthy nations' needs and is stockpiled.


We need to direct our thoughts towards wealth and away from poverty or financial problems of any sort. That does not mean that we can rush out and run up a credit card bill because, if we don't think about how to pay the bill, it will be paid. What it does mean, is that by thinking thoughts of wealth we will attract wealth to us and eventually change our circumstances from poverty to wealth. (I use the word poverty in the sense that any shortage of finances constitutes poverty.)


We are all the sum total of our thoughts. The power we possess is within us, not outside. The outside is the manifestation (the result) of our Inner Power. We all have the power to create. Thoughts are creative - even when used to destroy. The outward manifestations or results of material wealth are goods such as a house, car, boat, a holiday, a horse, whatever object or objects that give you pleasure personally, plus peace of mind. The results of spiritual wealth are peace, health and happiness. I like to think it is attaining an equal balance of both that results in the most satisfying lifestyle.


If you would like a large country house then go out and buy relevant magazines. Look through them once a day, or at least once every other day. Study the houses, what designs do you really like? How many rooms are there, are there any outhouses, stables etc.? How much land? Is there a stream? Would you like a house with a stream? 2 acres, 3 or 21 acres? What would you do with a property with 21 acres? Farm it? Keep horses?

What we are doing is three things:

A: Creating the Power of Desire - because when we know what we desire, and
can impress upon our mind our desires, then invisible forces set to work to
bring about our desires. At the end of this course, you will not only know
this, but will know how to impress the mind.

B: Fooling the senses - your conscious mind knows very well through reasoning, from all the information collected from the senses, that you are not surrounded by these items you desire, and neither is the money available to purchase them. However, by subjecting the mind to pictures of wealth, and by subjecting the mind to discussions concerning the finer points of your desires, then the mind is being made to think thoughts of wealth.


C: Beginning to replace negative thoughts of lack with positive thoughts of plenty.


If you desire a Porsche, go and get a catalogue or brochure on the Porsche you would like. Go to a garage and look at the car, study the description and the design. Choose what color you'd like. What interior. Where there is a choice of interiors, check that the one you like can be made with the color car of your choice. What is the dashboard made from? Is there a choice of dashboards? If so, which one would you like?

Fill the vacuum in your mind, (the space made by stopping thoughts of "How am I ever going to pay the bills?") with pictures and thoughts of your desires. Learn what your desires really are. When you really get down to thinking about it, they may be different to what you imagined they were previously. If you won a million on the lottery tomorrow, would you know how to spend the winnings, what use to put the money to?


What is the point of money if it is not directed in a constructive manner? Whether it be investments for your future or your children, make plans. Decide on what you would do when wealth hits. It is NOT beyond a dream. It is at your fingertips. You just have to reach out and grab it.

Relax and improve your business

A healthy mind is the way to a healthy business. Not easy to swallow but when you look at people who are successful the first thing you'll notice is that they are not rubbing their head in frustration -they've been through that stage.

Have you put everything into your business? Do you want to succeed and build a prosperous future? Are you open to changing the way you think about business dealings? It takes effort, persistence, and determination, but NOW is the time to start.

You have to condition your mind and business to accomplish the goals you have set forth for yourself. Income and time are the two most valuable assets needed to achieve personal goals. Now you will learn what it takes to create both.

On the whole, businesses and countries are run by purely materialistic principles. Throughout the world there are a number of businesses that are purposefully built on higher principles. Many people do not realize the great power of wealth built on such values. Sharing and giving builds wealth, not just for the privileged few, but for everyone, and that is the principle behind this program. Everyone who puts these suggestions into practice can become wealthy , and not just in the materialistic point of view. Wealth is NOT only money, but the means to share your power of knowledge and to put them to use to build your dreams and ambitions.

Now imagine It is a normal day as always, you go out to the mailbox to retrieve your mail. A stack full of envelopes sits in your mailbox. You grab them and go inside. You sit down and start sifting through your mail. Knowing all to well what the contents of each envelope holds. Other than a Publishers Clearing House letter stating that you won a million dollars...IF your number matches the winning number, etc.... and also another prequalified credit card offer with a high interest rate, it is ALL BILLS. The frustration grows. You know what is in each envelope, but yet you don't even have the energy to open it. The stress builds. You open each one with anguish knowing full well that it would take a miracle to pay them all. You put aside the ones that can wait and keep the ones that are already behind with the essential ones such as phone, electric and water.

Your frustration is so strong that you take the stack of bills and put them aside. Maybe if I don't look at them they will go away. Your day is now ruined because you are so stressed on figuring out a way to pay each one. You feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders. It is unbearable. But where could you run? All you ever wanted to do is to provide for your family. Your mind continues to whirl endlessly, merciless round and round, trying to solve a seemingly unsolvable, insurmountable problem.

To think about something is to give it vitality and energy.

Our scenario is only too common a feeling so many of us endure too often. There is no doubt that it is the most natural thing in the world to think about a problem in order to solve it. However, there are definite natural principles at work. Whether a person recognizes their existence or not, these natural principles still apply. They are busy working whether we recognize them or not. With knowledge of these natural principles, they can first be understood and then applied. If a great proportion of the day is spent in thinking about how the bills are to be paid, the mind is working on these problems.

But, contrary to what at first seems logical, that continually thinking about problems will solve them, exactly the opposite is true. The problem is being fed, made to grow. The problem is being injected with energy and vitality, thereby making the problem even stronger. Thinking about financial problems in the way our character in the scenario did, causes the financial problems to become even worse, to grow. This is exactly the opposite of what is desirable. So if this is the case, that thinking about how to pay the bills only worsens the situation, what do we think about? The opposite! Exactly the opposite to financial problems.

What do we really want in place of financial problems and poverty? The opposite is wealth! By thinking about wealth instead of poverty the financial problems are being starved of energy and vitality. By withdrawing our attention from undesirable conditions, we literally cut off their life supply and eventually they die a natural death and disappear.

Practical method to start re-programming your mind

Tell yourself that paying bills creates no financial hardship. If you angrily toss a bill aside, your mind registers the distress. It 'links' up with previous data that bill paying is a problem. This pattern must be broken and this is how to do it:

Write out the check for a bill as soon as it arrives. Put the check in an
envelope and address it ready for posting, after jotting down in pencil on the outside of the envelope the date to be paid and the amount. As soon as you have enough money to pay the bill, post it off. By writing out the check as soon as you receive the bill you are logging into your mind that bill paying is easy. Once this sinks in, your circumstances change to make it so.

This is not fantasy but fact!

Several years ago I read a true story of a woman who had cured herself of cancer. Her story was alongside another man's story, about his wife who had died from cancer. There were parallels in the two stories of certain things that both women had done in a bid to cure themselves. One woman succeeded and the other didn't. Apart from the tragedy of the one story, the whole issue intrigued me. I read both articles over and over to try and see what the difference in the two cases was. Why had one woman succeeded, when the other had not? Of course, the answer could have easily been that it was the first woman's time to die and not the others and that I had no right to question God's will. But, that was too easy an answer. I eventually discovered a difference. Here are the paragraphs that showed this. It was the one point of the two stories that differed.

"I refused to look at my body as it was, any more, with the cancerous growth. I would have a bath with my head in the air and cover myself with a towel as soon as I got out. I believed that if I could think of myself as whole, then I would be. So I didn't look in a mirror unless I was dressed. I didn't look at my body for three and a half years."

Then the story goes on to say that one-day this lady fell and hurt her side, on the side where the cancer was. So, she decided to go to see her doctor. She undressed, staring at the ceiling, so as not to break her pact, of not looking at the cancer. Then she heard her doctor laugh with surprise as he told her to look. At first she refused, but the doctor insisted. When she looked, her body was perfect. There was no fungating mess. There wasn't even a lump.

This brave lady had literally destroyed the cancer by refusing to think about it, thereby refusing to feed it, and deprive it of vitality and energy - and by feeding her mind with this simple but powerful thought/prayer, 'I AM whole. I AM the perfect expression of Divine Love.'
To not think about something, in other words to ignore it, is to starve it of vitality and energy, to eventually destroy it.

So, not to think about how to pay the bills or where the money is going to come from will eventually starve the situation of vitality and energy, and destroy the situation. Then it will no longer exist . The lady, who destroyed her cancer, filled the space and made herself better by refusing to think or even acknowledge the cancer - by instead thinking and declaring herself whole.

If the thoughts of wondering how to pay the bills are stopped then we make an empty space, a vacuum. We fill this vacuum with thoughts of what we desire - Wealth. Before the mind can be filled with constructive thoughts, there has to be a degree of control over thoughts. Controlling the mind is no easy task. In fact, it can be likened to grappling with an angry tiger.The very first step to controlling the thoughts is learning how to stop the mind whirling endlessly, in a wild unruly manner. The object is to become MASTER of our THOUGHTS, as opposed to their slave.
Before control of the mind can be obtained, some measure of control of the body has to be achieved. Relaxation is essential.

The best method to relax

Choose a quiet room, where you are not likely to be disturbed.
There must be total silence, (as far as is possible). Make sure the television
and radio are off.

Sit in a chair or settee or on the floor, in a comfortable position. Make sure you are sitting straight, but relaxed. It is important that the spine is straight. Or, if you prefer, lay on the floor on a clean rug, towel or sleeping bag, making sure your spine is as flat to the floor as is comfortable. Lay your arms by your side with palms upwards, and shoulders relaxed, which will place them nearly touching the floor.

Starting at the top of the head, you are going to deliberately and slowly go down through the body, silently commanding your body to 'Relax and let go'. Direct your thoughts to the top of the head, silently declare, 'relax and let go' down through the face, 'relax and let go' down the neck, 'relax and let go' into the shoulders, 'relax and let go' down through the arms, 'relax and let go' down to the tips of your fingers, 'relax and let go' into the chest, 'relax and let go' into the entire back area, 'relax and let go' round into the entire stomach and abdomen area, 'relax and let go' into the hips, 'relax and let go' through the thighs, 'relax and let go' the knees, 'relax and let go' the calves, 'relax and let go' into the feet, even to the toes, 'relax and let go'

By now your entire body should be completely relaxed. Next, stay in your relaxed position for approximately 5 minutes.
Carry out this exercise every day for a week.
