This is a technique that also works very well, though is much greater when combined with the first. Again, the important parts here are less about procedure and more about the principles being used. This powerful method of getting what you want is simply holding a mental picture of what you want in your mind, also known as visualization. Using the same business example, for instance, what I will do is simply close my eyes and develop a picture of myself perhaps in front of a computer looking over good sales numbers. I am comfortable and relaxed, and I also look out of my beachfront house’s window at a boat that I will be on later in the afternoon. I would concentrate on this image, or any other image, for as long as I want and with as much attention as I can give. After I am satisfied with my image, I again wake up to the present moment and feel my body, the air, the sounds, the smells around me, confident that as I continue to stay awake in the present moment, my image will eventually come true.
You will notice, again with practice, that as you become more attentive to your images and to the present moment, your images will unfold with a sometimes shocking degree of accuracy and speed. Experience teaches that going back to one mental image several times tends to speed along the process. This is again a very powerful method of getting what you want, and this will of course be as truthful to you as you believe it to be. A common theme among many of the most successful techniques is the power of the present moment. There are few things as powerful as the human mind in harmony with the present moment. If I had to offer only one sentence to you to free yourself, it would be: Always stay in the present moment.
