Active Visualization

You probably hear a lot about visualization. Maybe it has you think of daydreaming.

Truth be told daydreaming is not visualization. It might help to think of visualization as active visualization.

What's the difference?

Active visualization is seeing yourself actively doing the tasks or seeing yourself at the achievement of your goals. NASA had astronauts actively go through each task of walking on the moon, as if they were doing it for real. USSR athletes would see themselves play each game in their mind fully, each step of the the run, each goal shot.

It is more involved in your body. Dancers dance each dance in their minds before the performance.

So that's is what you can do in active visualization. Take 5 minutes each day to see yourself in the accomplishment of each step of your journey to your desires, your dreams. Feel the feelings of each accomplishment, and each time you overcome any obstacle.

That is active visualization, not just daydreaming!
