Default How to visualize

Did you ever see the TV show Sliders?

In that show a group of 4 people would "slide" through a portal between dimensions, spending each episode in an alternate version of earth. For example, they might enter a reality where the Nazis won WWII. Or in another reality one of them might be famous.

Don't just visualize money coming to you -- that's weak. Visualize the entire alternate reality you wish to enter, in as much detail as possible.

Imagine you're a Slider, and you just slid through a portal into that new reality -- into that new YOU as well. You're already there living it.

You aren't going to play with your cash most likely. If you were already living it, that would be silly and immature. That's the sort of thing someone would do only if they weren't already living it.

Put yourself in the shoes of that new person. Witness through his/her eyes how s/he goes through a typical day.

What time do you get up in the morning? Who's sleeping next to you? Where are you? How do you feel? What do you eat for breakfast? What do you do in the morning, afternoon, and evening?

You must imagine yourself as already being there. You want to reach the point where it feels natural and normal to be there -- after all, this is your reality, isn't it? So of course it will feel normal in a way.

I spent a lot of time visualizing my life in a disgustingly happy way. It took a while to reach the point where feeling extremely blissful all day long began to seem normal to me, like I just expected to feel that way all the time, and it wasn't such a big deal anymore. When I reached that point, shifts began to happen really, really fast -- sometimes so fast that I actually had to back off and say to the universe, "Whoa! Let's slow down a bit" to give myself time to catch my breath.

A good movie to watch is Being John Malkovich. That will give you more insight into how to slip into an alternate reality and imagine life through the lens of your new character.

Ideally, visualizing your future should be very much the same as remembering your past. Just as you would recall and mentally review what you did yesterday, that's how you want to imagine your new reality. What are the highlights of your typical day, and how do you feel about them?

Notice that emotional memories are much stronger than routine events. Such memories can draw the past back into your present, but they can also draw a powerful future into your present if you create powerful new memories of the future.

Hope this helps...
