I may have just stumbled across one of the greatest tools that our minds possesses.
What mind tool am I talking about? Visualization
Why is it so powerful? Because it shapes our reality around us. Literally.
Remember back when you were in grade-school, around 5, 6, 7 years old. You would sit in class, listening to the teacher, and eventually your mind would start to wander off. Fantasizing about that new bike, or the new barbie doll, or jumping on the trampoline, or anything you wanted to be doing.
If/when you got caught, your teachers scolded you and told you "Pay attention! Stop daydreaming!"...they were so wrong... Daydreaming is one of the most amazing things that you can do. I'm not exaggerating either. Its great for children, its even better for adults...
But its been so many years since then, most of us are out of practice. How can start doing it again? Even more, why should we?

You see, your mind works with images. These images are what you relate to the world with. What you probably didn't already know is, the images you hold in your mind make you resonate at the same frequency of what you are seeing.
And when two things are vibrating at the same frequency, they sync up. Like magnets.
Does this sound too esoteric or airy-fairy to you? If so, look at it this way...
Think of visualization as a vibration-creator. Any mental-image you view, repeatedly over time, will sync you up with its physical manifestation. Think about coffee, I bet you'll have coffee very soon. Think about the opposite sex, you'll run into it soon. Think about money, watch as the abundant sea of money crashes its waves upon your beach.
Another example: Many sport athletes trainings consists of hardcore visualization techniques. They've hooked athletes up to a machine to monitor heart-rate, etc. They told him to imagine, in his mind, as if he was on the playing field, running with the ball.
Sure enough, his heart started racing and his palms started sweating. His whole body started responding, even muscles started firing off in the same sequence they would while really playing. Researchers realized something breakthrough about this connection...
The unconscious mind cant tell the difference between imagination and reality.
Why is it difficult to believe, when you are suddenly awoken startled, that your dreams really aren't real?
This is magnificent though! Because... we are in control of our minds. Hey you reading this, right now think of a black cat....... What just happened? Now, DONT THINK of a black cat. No really, dont.... Stop!
So, we can visualize anything at any moment. What kind of refrigerator do you have? Does it open to the left or to the right? Top and bottom or side-doors? Whats inside? See, as you think about this, you are visualizing your fridge. I bet you can even see the vague shape of everything you think is in there, the colors, even the sounds opening it, and the smells inside too. You might even feel a little hungry when you see it open up.
This, my friend, is the power of visualization.
We can visualize something, anything... and we then become synced with that frequency (keep visualizing), which brings it into your awareness both mentally and physically... then imagine what you could do with this power.
Its like... you're in a dream. And at any moment you want something, you have it. Snap! Its yours. Except, when your awake, when you think about something, that idea is a seed, and theres a gestation period. As you continue watering it with attention and awareness (visualizing that image constantly), it grows into a large and powerful tree. A redwood even, as you keep watering it.
I have years of experience with this, and I didn't even know it. Beyond any doubt at all I definitely know this works. I have well enough experienced-proof to believe in this, and it takes alot for me to believe something. I have some techniques that will let visualization prove itself though...
Technique #1: Daydreaming about your fantasy life.
Technique #2: At night, before you go to bed, visualize your next day. (This one is so powerful)
This technique alone can literally change your life. You might be thinking "yea right..." but just try it, you cant not get results doing this.
---------------------
-CAUTION-WARNING-
This is where most people slip up and are completely blind to a critical counter-intuitive point in life.
Dont try to prove any of this to be true, at least by the standards of person-to-person communication. It'll prove itself to you naturally through experience, but proving it to others is like... just go try it yourself and find out the difficulty.
Its impossible to find the proof when you are looking for it. Why? Lets say you are poor, and you are visualizing being rich! Then, when you're done, you look around and see the proof of poverty literally surrounding you. Just being aware of this itself will counteract all vibrational training you did on riches. Cuz you remember you're actually poor. :(
This is most certainly where the saying "Believing is seeing" proves itself. Thats right, its not "Seeing is believing" at all.
Visualizations work only as well as your belief in them. This is not just hope and faith, but a true knowing that YOUR belief in it literally IS the catalyst, the determining factor, the key, to your success. Without belief, the candle will burn out instantly.
If you want $50,000, visualize it! When you're not visualizing, just imagine this reality as only a residual effect of an old dream that you are waking up from more and more. If you notice you dont have $50,000, just think about having it again. Keep yourself on that money like you actually had it. Thats all that matters. Forget any proof of any lack.
If you are a natural doubter, thats "ok". It'll just take you alot longer to see results, and you might even completely deny and doubt any shreds of proof that come seeping through the cracks.
Just try completely believing in it. Believe in it 100% for at least a couple of weeks. At the end if you dont see any amazing results, stop believing. Haha but that wont happen...

I'll wrap this up with an example of one of my visualizations. Take note of my process, and try using this to enhance your own process!

- The poor man in our world speaks most about poverty.
- And the rich men in our world speak most about riches.
- It is no coincidence that poor people dont become rich.
- Because they dont know how to become rich.
- Even more, they never visualize riches. Or if they do, its counteracted with visuals of a poor house and empty bank accounts.
- Everything in these peoples lives are there because of their visualizations, emotions, and allowance of surrounding proof to continue manifesting the same into their daily lives...

Technique #1: Daydreaming about your fantasy life.
- Just take a moment... this is your moment.
- Pick something to visualize, like something you should do later tonight, or tomorrow.
- Something simple, perhaps something thats not at the top of your todo list.
- Now, go into daydream mode.
- See yourself doing that task.
- You possess all the paints, colors, and brushes to use, so make it exactly the way you want to.
- Paint it positive, with bright colors, happy faces, whatever you want.
- You are literally DOING that thing in your head right now.
- Now, while you are visualizing...
- Feel what its like to be doing it, be creative with this.
- Feel excited!
- Feel productive!
- Feel immersed!
- What do you want to feel when your doing/done with it? Feel that.
- And... when your done, come back to the real world.
Technique #2: At night, before you go to bed, visualize your next day. (This one is so powerful)
- Think about the things you must, or want, to do the next day.
- See yourself doing those things.
- Get specific, but keep yourself open to new things.
- Feel what its like to do and accomplish these tasks.
- Remember, what you see and how you feel will be the pieces used to create the actual events in your life, so imagine how you really want the results to be.
This technique alone can literally change your life. You might be thinking "yea right..." but just try it, you cant not get results doing this.

I'll wrap this up with an example of one of my visualizations. Take note of my process, and try using this to enhance your own process!
- I'm visualizing getting a place to live.
- I see myself talking to some people.
- Shaking hands, smiling, feeling good.
- I see myself looking around at new apartments.
- Seeing big open rooms, saying "hmm, yes yes..."
- Looking at the person I'm with and agreeing.
- Sitting down and writing my finances out.
- Seeing that its all going to work out perfectly!
- And feeling excited! Jumping for joy, literally.
- I see myself moving my stuff from here into my new place.
- Getting everything settled.
- Throwing a new-apartment party.
- Sitting in my chair, reflecting back on everything.
- Feeling relieved, and relaxed, and so happy.
- ...and when I'm ready, I return my awareness back to "now".
- As my day continues, I keep repeating that final frame, the very end goal, over and over.
