Believe in your imagination!
While science has much to discover about our world, the fact is that what we do know about humanity is that each individual shapes their world and life in the image they hold of themselves. From Carl Jung to modern day self-help books, the conclusion is the same; what you believe you are you see in the outside of yourself. That which is within an individual comes out of the individual as their reality.
Perception is reality
An individual that sees himself or herself as successful even during temporary failures in their lives will be successful in life because their thoughts of success and positive attitude of learning from one’s failures and continuing on means the individual also creates success with their actions which are surged on by their thoughts and perception of themselves as successful individuals.
See yourself as a successful, motivated, open-minded individual and you are already shaping your reality along the frequencies of your thoughts and the actions you follow up your thought frequency with.
Failure as your guide to success
Some people fail at certain endeavors and immediately see themselves as failure personified. This is a huge mistake because every time you fail you need to recognize this failure as just something you didn’t succeed at and need to learn as much as you can from it. Failure at something does not equal failure at being you. You can either try to improve your tactics, your project, or move on to another project with more knowledge about what will not work. Failure and success are twined together. They are never separate. They are a balance in our world necessary to show us what works and what doesn’t. Without this balance we can’t grasp knowledge, wisdom or our lasting growth as an individual.
Positive action
Most successful people will tell you something rather strange and that is that they believed what they imagined to be already accessible and there for them, and they followed up with their actions to those goals without much problems. Michelangelo’s father used to beat him because he was convinced his son would never be able to make money with sculpting. Michelangelo then went out and stared at rock, sculpting in his mind, knowing the sculpture was already there. And when he grew up and escaped his father’s narrow minded non-imaginative clutches, he continued with his mind, imagination and then by his own hands and chisels. Positive action starts with imagination.
Write down your goals, see them in clear detail in your imagination, follow up with action
Writing down your goals, setting up a time frame you want them to be accomplished by, and seeing those goals accomplished in as much detail in your imagination will lead you to follow up with action steps towards those already accomplished goals within you. Now you only have to bring them out of yourself and into the world seemingly outside of you. See that each temporary failure is just a shy image of success showing you where it’s not and where it is waiting for you.
Just use your imagination.
