POSITIVE BUTTERFLIES
FOR A POSITIVE LIFE |
Caterpillars,
cocoons, and butterflies teach me about life. Too many people are
caterpillars, munching their way through life in a never changing
existence. They think that they are supposed to be caterpillars
for their whole life. Another group goes through the caterpillar
stage into the cocoon stage and remains there forever. They slip
into an unconscious state and sleep away their remaining days. A
few people wake up, break out of the cocoon, and emerge as butterflies.
Their life is full of brilliant colors and they soar on the updrafts of
God's love after they spread their wings and fly. What's it going
to be for you? Caterpillar, cocoon, or butterfly? |

VISUALIZATION - LOOKING WITH YOUR MIND
Sometimes you look with your eyes, and at other times you look with
your mind.
Visualization is looking with your mind.
We know that what we look at expands into our lives. If we are
smart, we advertise our dreams to ourselves by displaying their
pictures where we can constantly see them. The more we look at
them, the stronger the dreams become, and the more influence they
have on our destiny.
Sometimes, it's impossible to create and display a picture of your
dreams because an image doesn't exist. That's where visualization
comes in. It lets you see things in your mind's eye that you can't
see with your physical eyes. Looking with your mind's eye -
visualization - has nearly the same power as looking at an actual
photograph. For all practical purposes, your brain doesn't
distinguish between an image that you see with your eyes from one
that you visualize in your mind.
I put a picture of Bora Bora on my wall more than ten years before I
actually arrived there on my yacht. But if I didn't have a picture,
I could have achieved the same result by visualizing Bora Bora in my
mind. It didn't matter whether I saw the image on my wall or
visualized it in my mind; the net results were the same. I had Bora
Bora on my mind, and I was willing to move heaven and earth to get
there.
Visualization has great power for both good and evil.
Unfortunately, not everyone uses it to visualize good. They
visualize bad health, poverty, and depression, and like night
follows day, problems expand into their life.
Each day when I wake up, I visualize my future. In my mind, I see
myself doing dozens of things that move me in the direction of my
dreams. I visualize the path to my dreams so that when I walk down
that path, it will be a trip through familiar territory.
When you visualize your future, don't forget that God has a dream
for your life that is better than anything you can imagine. If you
get in agreement with God and visualize his master plan, your life
will become an awesome adventure.
