Time for Mental Practice

"If you want your life to be more rewarding, you have to change the way you think." - Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey hits the proverbial nail on the head in this case. She knows what it takes, wouldn't you agree?

I would, but then again I'm a results oriented kind of guy.

To change the way you think takes practice. Mental practice in this case.

Mental practice is the process of using your creative imagination to select positive images for your brain to focus on. This eliminates false, destructive images from your subconscious mind.

Every idea that you have learned can be re-evaluated and challenged. Each idea can be reevaluated and relearned with new input that can replace the old garbage.

By focusing your imagination on what you want, your conscious mind will direct your subconscious mind to accept the new input. Your subconscious mind will simply agree and begin to comply.

Key points to remember:

• Anything vividly imagined is accepted as true by your subconscious.
• Imagined experiences are perceived and acted upon exactly as real.
• Your behavior follows what you believe to be true.
• Your behavior changes in the direction of your beliefs.

Successful people use a process of visualization to assist them with their pursuits. By spending time each day visualizing that they achieve their goals, they guide their subconscious mind to accept that image.

Create a process for yourself. Follow these guide lines when doing so:

• Choose the same time everyday for your mental practice
• Make sure there will be NO interruptions
• Accept all positive images as valid and helpful

These basic steps in mental practice will go a long way in leading you toward the life you desire. Take a closer look at how you've been using your creative imaging and what kind of mental practices that you have.

To have, do and be all you can...the choice is uniquely yours.

Best of Success,
