You can close your eyes and conjure up familiar faces and beautiful places on the blackboard of your mind. It is the place where your dreams occur so vividly and imaginatively. This is the place that reality draws forth. The place in your minds space where your canvas is stored is your conscious mind.
Thoughts have mental pictures associated with them. These mental pictures are the imprints of the conscious mind into the Universal Mind. The clearer the picture, the clearer the imprint returns in physical form. It is not enough to think in terms of vocabulary. Mental pictures must be ingrained in your thoughts.
In attempting to alter your experience, it is very important to focus intently on mental pictures. Your conscious mind sends blue prints to the Universal Mind on what to construct. The clearer the prints, the clearer the image returned. The effects of specifically imprinting mental images cannot be overstated. Visualization is done in the mind, not with the eye. You already know how to do this. You think in terms of mental pictures already.
You can hold something in view of your eye such as a photograph of your ideal house, but it must be imprinted within the eye of the mind to become an actual physical thing. How often do you look at something without really seeing it? All the time, right? Take your watch for example. The average person looks at their watch dozens of times a day, yet often, cannot describe the face color, brand maker, or specific markings. Could you describe the man that bags your weekly groceries? What does he look like? What color are his eyes? Could you accurately describe the dashboard of your car? Do you know on which side of your dashboard the gas gauge is located? What is the background color of your dashboard? We look at objects all the time without really imprinting the details of the object into our mind. Unfortunately, we peruse our ideals with the same superficial imagery.
When you visualize your ideals you need to do it with clear details of your intention. The more vivid the details detained in your mind the superior the results. The pictures you paint should be of very specific outcomes. Seeing yourself at your ideal weight, calls for an accurate reflection of you at your ideal weight. What do you look like at that weight? What shape is your figure? Do you have muscle contours? What clothes do you wear? How fluidly do you move? You have to see you as that person.
Whatever you identify as your ideals, your ability to visualize them is an extremely powerful tool. You can think thoughts with small mental pictures appearing like pop up storms or you can give yourself the visual force of a stage 5 hurricane. It is the canvas of your conscious mind painting vivid pictures from mere suggestion that helps you draw experiences toward you more quickly.
Meditating connects you with the conscious mind. Quieting your mind and distilling your thoughts enables you to draw forth vivid images. It is in this quiet connection that your greatest power is. Thought is power. Concentrated thought is concentrated power. When you couple concentrated power kissed with the seeds of clarity than you have harnessed real profitable power. Unstoppable in terms of bringing you want you want.
Your strongest thoughts contain vivid mental imaginary. Rich images come to mind when I tell you to think of: your mom, a blade of grass, a static cling dryer sheet, a cotton ball. These thoughts are presented in the form of pictures that are easily retrieved. What do you conjure up when I tell you to think about: my mom, my house, or my car? You draw a blank, don’t you? You do not have mental pictures associated with these so the flashes of imaginary are fuzzy as you attempt to summon meaning. Now, picture you achieving your ideals. What are you doing? What do you look like? Where are you? If you cannot conjure up very specific vivid visuals quickly, then you have no blueprints. If you do not have blueprints then you are not registering what to construct from conscious mind to Universal Mind. Your strongest beliefs and thoughts are represented quite clearly with mental imagery. Your goal in achieving your ideals is to reflect them just as clearly in this mental mirror.
You have to see yourself living your ideals as if you have arrived. That is why physical action such as dressing like your boss, taking acting lessons, signing up for a marathon, scripting out the first few paragraphs of the play you want to write are so important. Actions contribute to mental pictures. As you construct the visual in your conscious mind, you believe and begin validating. The more you concentrate your efforts on your ideals, the more habitual the clarity of your thoughts will become. Your pictured thoughts will grow and attract. You will become unstoppable.
Ideals left unconstructed within the mind will fizzle, falter and fail you. When we fail to construct mental imagery of our ideals then they are kept from up since imprinting has not occurred from the conscious mind to the Universal Mind. There is simply no blueprint to register.
We think in terms of: thoughts with no pictures, thoughts with vague pictures and thoughts with very vivid pictures. Remember when I asked you to think of your mom? A picture of your mom popped into your head. But when I said think of my mom, you drew a blank. Drawing a blank is a signal that thought has not been lent in order for construction of a mental picture to occur. Consider the pictures you hold of your ideals. Do they hold the crystal clarity that your mother’s image calls forth? Or are your ideals cloudy pictures, like the thought of my mother? When we do think in terms of pictures, it is because thoughts are strong and habitual on the matter, like the mental image of a cotton ball. We need to create the thoughts of our ideals and imprint them into our mind in order for our reality to mirror our ideals back. Our ideal pictures must be as clear and as readily retrievable as the image of our mother. When you visualize with clarity power is harnessed.
Our thoughts do attract and the result is accumulative. All that you see before you is an accumulation of your past thoughts. We need to remember that since we are creative, we endeavor to create in our mind constantly. We enjoy and sometimes even derive emotional pleasure from creating thoughts within our mind. It satisfies our insatiable appetite to create. It is passive creativity to think, something we do to fulfill our needs much like an artist might doodle. We practice with our mind, toiling with ideas. Some will materialize and some will not materialize leaving us only mental satisfaction.
Clarity refines the oil of our thinking. Our thoughts produce mental images that eventually translate into physical form. Since our thinking has been so chaotic, we get bits and pieces of reality chucked back. Even our daydreams are ever changing illusions. Thought that is not visually clung to will not mold into a belief. We change the paint base from water to oil, the scenery, the texture, the colors, and the setting. Our pictures are a blending of our imprecision making for a murky mess.
How much is too much and how much is not enough? That depends upon your current capabilities. If you trust yourself, and soon you will, actualization will be taken for granted. You will expect results. And when you act with intent, results follow much faster.
We have to “set up” our future so to speak. Most of have thoughts that race through our head something like: Got to get the car washed on the way home. There is nothing in the freezer for dinner. Are we out of cat food too? I don’t know why my boss is in charge. I could do a better job. I wonder if I have a pencil in my car. A red light again…uh! I’m sick of red lights.
You get the picture don’t you? Thoughts running uncontrollably rampant like a stray dog. The quick pictures you conjure are of the pencil in your car, the red light, potential dinner choices. These pictures come masterfully easily because they are the pictures we create constantly. The pictures of our ideals are often left unattended to and so are hazy to us.
You can endeavor to do anything. You can accomplish many goals. You can be multi-directional and multi-talented in your accomplishments as long as you give clear directive thought power. If a big house on a lake is what you are after, then begin by painting just that picture. Every detail does not need to be in place. Foundations start from the bottom up. If you want a house on a lake, what does that house look like? Clarify for yourself your mental pictures grabbing those that are desirable. Hold the mental images within your mind. Your inner self is not clear on what it should attract. Until clarity is provided you will stick to the well-treaded paths of your beliefs. Without providing clarity your mixed thoughts will only reward you with mixed results.
Spend time clarifying each intended target area. See yourself in your minds eye achieving, living, and receiving. If everything is not yet known to you, don’t worry. Eventually you will become clear on what you want as you learn to use ideals. If you want a house on a lake but do not know where, think less about where and more about the house on the lake. The where will be provided.
What you spend time thinking about will be yours. The way will find itself. Know that you will receive once you define the “what.” The how, the where, and the who are not for you to figure out. Since it is the frequency that you are tuning yourself into you need not be concerned about how it will come to you. Know that it will be and be satisfied.
From an artist’s brush masterpieces are created. But it is with the first clear stroke that concentration begins on each small detail. An artist does not overwhelm. She starts with the petal of a sunflower and knows the sky will follow. As you build, your details will also evolve as you idealize more.
Our ability to visualize our ideals is immeasurable. It is those pictures that you paint in the dusty corners of your mind that give rise to feelings and actualization. Your senses aid in painting those pictures. Feelings provide feedback to the clarity you construct. You feel exceptionally good when you are engaged in vivid thought of your ideals. As you gain that pleasurable feeling know your distinct thoughts are engaged properly.
You can think, “I’m rich, I’m rich, I’m rich,” but coupling that thought with a visualization is a power path to actualizing. Thinking and seeing with your mind whips the winds of change in your direction. What do you want? Give yourself a very clear picture what it is.
If you give yourself sketchy pictures that stop short of your dreams then your dreams will not actualize. If you focus on your ideals today, tiring of the mental labor tomorrow, then the mixed messages produce a shook up version of reality. Half baked attempts at clarity provide mediocre results.
If you are unwilling to actively draw your future, it will still be drawn for you. Make no mistake about it. However, it will hold nothing but the scattering of thoughts which you lent to it. If you assess your life based on its extremes or mediocrities, your predominant thoughts will be demonstrated.
You need to draw those pictures for yourself in such a way and look at them as often as you can to produce that “automatic thinking.” The clarity and concentrated efforts which you lend your thoughts will determine the clarity of the results produced. Cloudy thoughts equal cloudy results. Crystal clear thoughts equal fine crystal results.
Employ as many of your senses to aid in the quickness of your results. Give your mind that gas it needs to churn the wheels. One thought on the subject, one clear thought, will lend itself to another and another. Soon each of these thoughts will be imbedded so deeply into your conscious mind that these will be the only accepted thoughts and pictures. Those of lack, illness, poverty and doubt will be banned from entry.
Since thought holds form, you must hold your thoughts. Yet when it comes to employing these techniques to our mental attitudes, we let them run wild like an undisciplined child. However like a child, your mental abilities do not need to be monitored, controlled and told what to do constantly. At first, a small child requires more supervision. However as the child matures mentally, less attention is required. Children require direction and discipline, so do your thoughts. Sometimes just a subtle suggestion works but other times very specific discipline is required.
Think of thought training much like you would teach a child to tie their shoes, write their name or learn to climb a tree. You spend limited amounts of very concentrated effort on each of these tasks. They do not consume you. However, you do repeat the teaching with extreme detail UNTIL the child has learned to tie his shoe, write her name or climb the tree. This is what you need to do with your thoughts. Train yourself UNTIL you learn.
We have power over circumstances employable through the clarity of our thoughts. The longer we hold our pictures within our mind, the more secure they will become in the physical world. We will start to believe them.
Whenever you feel the gnarling claws of discontent in the ranks, the shadows of doubt or the dueling swords of indecision, take the opportunity to idealize for yourself exactly what you want to occur. Then paint that mental picture. Ben Franklin lists simply will not do.
You have permission to dream. You have permission to idealize. Everything that you could ever want already exists. It exists in the form of potential energy waiting for your like thoughts to pull it together into form; to organize it. When you consider it this way, it is not a matter of the have’s or the have not’s. It does not matter the extent of your education level is or the lack of success you have experienced to date. It is a matter of intently applying your power of thought attracting to you what you desire by molding energy form. That is how your physical reality is expressed and comes to be. It is unbound timeless energy waiting for form; waiting for pictures. Anyone can be abundant.
