Step 5: Visualization (After Achieving Mindfulness) – Harnessing the Power of Imagination

Make sure you have completed each step to your satisfaction before moving on. Mindful practice is not a quick fix. It takes time to reprogram your mind after perhaps many years of being on the stressful and frustrating pathway that has brought you to this point.

Please move into your mindful state by following the prompt above.

Once you feel grounded and calm and your mind is free of distractions, you can start to use your imagination.

Practice Visualization

• Imagine and Create Your Ideal Scene: Keeping your eyelids lowered, imagine yourself living your ideal life as a successful entrepreneur. Visualize all the details of this: Where are you? What are you doing? Who are you with? How do you feel? Connect and engage all your senses to make the visualization as clear and strong as possible.
• Feel Positive Emotions: As you visualize, let go and feel the emotions associated with your success—joy, excitement, and fulfillment. Allow these positive emotions to flow through you, strengthening your vision and reinforcing your belief in its realization.
• Do this repeatedly: Carve out time each day to practice visualization. Consistency is essential to embedding your vision deeply in your subconscious mind. The more you visualize, the clearer and more attainable your vision becomes.

These famous words may inspire you to believe in the ancient power of visualisation:

Navigating the Multidimensional Cosmos of Visualization

Visualization is not mere imagery or imagination.

It’s a multidimensional voyage engaging our senses, emotions, and intellect.

We cannot share this with anyone else because we are unique. In other words, no one can visualise for you!

Your visualisation reflects your individual perceptions and aspirations—a personal cosmos of possibilities.

As artists imbue their creations with their unique spirit, we, too, can charge our visualizations with soulful intention.

The Universe is a vast mirror reflecting what we transmit back into our lives in different forms.

We can resonate with the cosmos if we visualise sincerely and consistently.

You have everything you need already inside you to enable this. So, please try it and see.

Returning from your Journey Inside

As mentioned before, how you return from your inner journey is crucial. Don’t be tempted to come back suddenly.

Take your time to readjust to the outside world.

Perhaps you will experience a feeling of refreshment and a surge of energy ready for your next tasks; perhaps not.

Keeping a mindful journal is a good idea, so slowly open it and sit back so you can write something if you feel like it.

This is optional, but if you can write, it will help you to assimilate this new practice into your life.

Then, just before you leave your mindful space, here’s step 5 affirmation.

As you move through the rest of your day, let these words occur to you or say them repeatedly. This is like having a secret weapon that only you know about.

Repeat the following affirmation daily to reinforce your commitment to manifesting your vision:

“I am the ruler of my thoughts and emotions.”

This affirmation reminds you that you, and only you, can shape your reality through your thoughts and emotions. This is living your life First-Hand.

By affirming your control over your mental and emotional states, you empower yourself to align with your vision and take the necessary actions to bring it to fruition.

Reflect and Adjust:

Periodically reflect on your progress and adjust your vision as needed.

Life is dynamic, and your goals may evolve over time.

Stay flexible and open to new possibilities while remaining steadfast in your commitment to your overarching vision.

Remember, you hold the power to create the life you desire.

Embrace it thoroughly, and watch as your vision transforms into reality.
