#934 This is NOT how I pictured my childhood turning out!

That’s what my four-year-old granddaughter told her parents when they insisted that she clean up her toys before moving on to the next activity

Besides that it’s cute as heck, little River Daisy is on to something here.

How do you picture your life turning out? Is your picture one of dread and worry?  Perhaps you don’t picture it at all.  Maybe just facing the coming day is all you can manage.

For most high achievers, picturing the future is Tarantinoesque.  They’re constantly creating and editing great movies.  They are full color, on location, high-def, perfectly played out sagas replete with heroes, villains, struggles to overcome, an eye on the prize, the fulfillment of their quest, and the spoils that go along with that victory.

“ Visualization is a key component in living the life you want to live.”

  In my coaching practice, we go out five years to the ending we want and come back to create the movie.

Try it now.  Future pace yourself for a moment.  What do you see, five years ahead?  If you don’t like the scene, give it a rewrite. Imagine a great result and vividly picture it.  See what you’ll see, feel what you’ll feel, hear what you’ll hear, smell what you’ll smell.  Turn up the volume and enhance the graphics.  Make it vivid.  Really sit in it for a moment.  Absorb and enjoy it.  Now go back and write the script that leads to that ending.

Try it. You’re just a few edits away from being the next Rocky.
