The Power of Imagination

You can literally imagine your future into a reality. And, as you begin to sincerely believe it, this releases resistance and opens you to receiving, which is known as the Law of Allowing.

I love what the great motivational speaker Les Brown said, “Operate out of your imagination, not your memory.” This is the secret to acquiring whatever you desire to be, do, or have! It is the sweet spot where you intersect your dreams, goals, and intentions with the feeling of already having them.

Albert Einstein, the famous physicist, said, “Imagination will take you everywhere. Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”

How do you do this? Simple…be a kid again! Imagine and pre-tend you already have whatever you intend to be, do, or have. The definition of “pretend” says it all: “Speak and act to make it appear that something is the case when, in fact, it is not.”

Abraham/Esther Hicks says: “Never mind what is. Imagine it the way you want it to be so that your vibration is a match to your desire. When your vibration is a match to your desire, all things in your experience will gravitate to meet that match every time.” She also reminds us that “worrying is using your imagina-tion to create something you don’t want.” We all worry. As soon as you catch yourself, gently move away from these thoughts.

For about the first seven years of life, our brain waves are mainly in Theta, which is associated with imagination and a state of hypnosis. It was our magical time. When we were kids imagining, we had no limiting thoughts, doubts, or resistance. We lived in the moment of whatever we were imagining or pretending. Our “pretend” became instantly real.

As adults, visualization is a term we often use. It means the for-mation of a mental image of something. Either way you prefer to think about it, be a kid again, and imagine, pretend, or visual-ize your future life.

Another term for the same idea is Mental Rehearsing, a tech-nique often used by athletes. Swimmer Missy Franklin, who won four gold medals at the 2012 London Games, uses visualization to reduce anxiety about the unknown. She said, “When I get there, I’ve already pictured what’s going to happen a million times, so I don’t actually have to think about it.”

Each technique works the same way: it carves a path in your brain to your goal. Among other benefits, science shows us that positive visualization can decrease stress, reduce anxiety, in-crease self-confidence, and enhance motivation
