Hi Lil Chris,
I personally find processes recommended by Abraham-Hicks work well for me. They are variations on visualization, and expand on the concept.
One is called "segment intending", and it involves visualizing and scripting out the events and interactions in a segment of time. Here is an example of how it works:
I get into my car and I visualize an easy ride to my destination, with traffic opening up for me as I approach any blockage. I smile at other drivers, they smile back, and I enjoy good tunes on the radio on the way.
As I approach my destination - let's say a store - I imagine finding a good parking spot, and happy people in the store. I find exactly what I went to buy easily, at I price I like. I visualize a smiling, pleasant checkout clerk, and as I leave the store I realize I am ahead of schedule.
My next task for the day is lunch with my mother, with whom I have a strained relationship and she tries my patience. Today as I prepare to meet her, I segment intend that she will be in a wonderful mood, we'll talk about agreeable subjects, she'll direct her complaints elsewhere instead of at me, and we'll finish our lunch happy and content.

I imagine you get the point. The strength in this is it trains you to plan out how you want things to play out, and instead of "playing movies" in your head about worst-case scenarios, or the nasty argument you had last time you saw Mom, etc., you play the movie of how you want things to happen.
It works for me. The books are Ask and It Is Given and The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent.
I have other practices I use, too - I'll wait and see what others suggest, and if this is really what you wanted for answers.
Love & Joy
