Vishen Lakhiani guides a 30-second visualization: close your eyes, recall a vivid positive memory, imagine yourself more confident on a movie screen, step into that version, and carry the feeling with you.
Chapters
Let's just try a quick thought experiment then, shall we? I'd like you to close your eyes just for a moment. Remember a time that you felt really, really good. And return to it like you're back there again. Now, see, the human nervous system doesn't know the difference between a real and a vividly imagined experience. So when we return to the good times, what happens is we begin to get all those good feelings back. And then what I'd like you to do is make a movie screen in front of you in your imagination. And on that screen, I'd like you to watch a movie. A you that's even more confident, even more happy, even more fulfilled, even more creative, even more in love with life. And when it looks really good, I'd like you to go over and float into that you and step inside and see through the eyes of your happier, more confident self. Now, take this good feeling and take it with you through the rest of the day. Good. And then open your eyes and come on back out. So who feels good here? Anybody feel good? Oh. Alright. Fantasy. Okay. Okay. Sam.
