We all get stuck. You know the feeling. The one where that voice in your head is telling you all the reasons why you cannot do something. We all face these struggles at times. How do you get past your internal barrier?
One method is visualization. Visualize yourself going through the steps of getting past your barrier. Not just the results, or the success, but actually doing the work required.
As a simple example, think about getting an apple from one of the higher branches of a tree. Obviously this is a very simplified example. But to get that apple, don’t think about what it will feel like to hold and taste the apple, instead visualize the steps required to get the apple.
Will you bring a ladder? Will you climb the tree? Will you use something to knock the apple from the limb, or will you grab it and pull it from the limb? Visualizing the steps is different than visualizing the results. Once you can see yourself doing the steps it is a matter of following through. The action required becomes clearer.
Ok. That was a really simple, basic example, and your challenges are much tougher. But sometimes, we just need to break our challenges into small steps. Steps that we can see ourselves taking.
I want you to think of your biggest current challenge. Then think of the very first step required to achieve that challenge. Visualize yourself doing it. Then go out and do it. Take the first step. Each successive step will be easier.
