99.99% of us underestimate our own power. We underestimate how we can manifest and control our own destiny, as well as the effect that we can have on others.

In order for us to set our goals, plan them and accomplish them, we have to visualize them. You may not realize how or that you do this, but I can guarantee that you do. Without the visualization, we have cannot plan and carry out the steps that are required to reach our goals.

But when you first get that great idea, how do you visualize it? Do you think to yourself, “Oh, that’s going to be too hard”, “I can’t do it”, “I’m not good enough at _________ to be able to bring this to fruition”. Do you have millions of doubts that come flooding into your head? We all do. But what we also have the power to do is to change our thought patterns and visual things with a much more positive outcome.

We you think of your goals and your dreams, always (always) think of them in a positive light. The energy that you put forth in these first moments of thoughts sets the tone and path for the entire goal. If you have a slip up and start to let those doubts creep in, recognize it, alter it, and move forward. Allow yourself to believe in you and the power that you hold to control your own successes.

Create a ritual around this goal. Post it up on your computer, your mirror, the first thing you see in the morning (I don’t recommend taping it to your mates’ forehead, that might cause an issue), coffee cup or refrigerator. Tell as many people as you can about your goal. Have them help you in the facilitation of focusing positive energy to the goal. They can also help to hold you accountable for your progress and help you to stay on task. Create a mantra for yourself, and say it repeatedly several times a day. Make it your desktop wallpaper. Stick a post it note with your mantra on it on the rear view mirror of the car. Just the note caught in your peripheral vision will be enough to remind you of your goal and to say your mantra.

But do you also realize the power that you have towards other people when they see you doing this? You can and will inspire them to set a goal and be accountable for it. Then, the roles are reversed and you can support them as they go through their goals, pitfalls, and joys. Success is freaking contagious: you see one person doing it and you want to do it for yourself. And that is how the movers and shakers of this world support one another to be wildly successful.

So tell me – how do you visualize your success? Do you have a positive outlook on it or do those negative thoughts stop you from doing what you know you can do? What keys to your success can you share? I want to know. Tell me in the comments what rituals you have in place (or are going to put in place) to make yourself wildly successful!
