Default Do Affirmations and Visualization just strengthen the ego?

I was really into doing affirmations and visualization, and I had just finished Creative Visualization (from Steve's reading list), when I read the Power of Now. Now I am afraid to do either because I have a feeling that it is only strengthening my ego. Isn't playing "mental-movies," even good ones, dwelling in the future? I've never heard of zen masters doing visualization or affirmations. I'm not sure what to do here, what do you all think?
