ENVISION YOUR FUTURE. THINK, PRAY, WRITE, MEDITATE IT INTO BEING….

I have learned, as a rule of thumb, never to ask whether you can do something. Say, instead, that you are doing it. Then fasten your seat belt. The most remarkable things follow. — Julia Cameron

Where there is no vision, the people perish. — Proverbs 29:18

Imagination is more important than knowledge. — Albert Einstein

If we lacked imagination enough to foresee something better, life would indeed be a tragedy. — Laurence J. Peter

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can’t find them, make them. — George Bernard Shaw

If you think you can, you can. If you think you can’t, you’re right. — Mary Kay Ash

The gods help them that help themselves. — Aesop

Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek and ye shall find; knock, and it will be opened unto you. — Matthew 7:7

To believe a thing impossible is to make it so.  — French proverb

The self is not something that one finds. It is something one creates. — Thomas Szasz

Man is what he believes. — Anton Chekhov

Why sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. — The queen in Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you’ve imagined — Henry Thoreau

…the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamt would come his way. — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid. — Basil King

Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country. — Anais Nin

Those who wish to sing will always find a song. — Swedish proverb

We can make our own future by envisioning it. Think about what you want – your ideal – even if it seems outlandish or impossible. Really think about it – in the positive (not, “I don’t want…” but “I want this to happen”) – and then believe it! Picture your life as if you were there and your imaginary future was already happening. Write a journal entry dated in the future. Draw a picture of this future.

Our thoughts, our dreams – if we believe in them – will come true.

Tell the Universe (God, Spirit, Higher Self, Goddess) – and yourself – your dreams, your wishes, your goals, your needs. Be specific!

I invite you to use the comments (as Anonymous if needed) to send your request, your belief about yourself and your abilities, your vision of the future out into the Universe. Dream big. And then believe it will happen.
