Begin daily developing your imaging power for prosperity and success by taking a little time at the beginning or end of your day – perhaps when you are writing out your plans and notes – to image them in definite form mentally.

For example, if you are listing bills that need to be paid: after you make your notes, sit quietly and image the checks already written to those owed in the specific amount. Image yourself putting those checks in envelopes and dropping them in the mail box. If there is a definite need for some specific amount of money, mentally image a check written out to you, showing a current date, and showing the amount of money needed to be entered on that check. Your imagination loves to be given definite pictures to build and form, which the subconscious mind then gratefully accepts, and gets busy producing the  definite results for you.

If you pay your bills on the Internet, imagine yourself opening your browser, clicking on your favorite to get to that site, log in and then imagine yourself putting in the exact amount needed for that payment. Then imagine clicking on the “submit” button.

Remember that you have been using your imaging power all the time. Perhaps, though, you’ve used it to image lack of money, lack of success, and all the things you don’t really want in life.  Take your wallet and checkbook in your hands during your quiet time. Closing your eyes, mentally image bills of large denomination bulging from the wallet. Mentally image your deposit slips showing large amounts of money being deposited into your bank account. Image, image, image , all the good that you wish to experience.

There was a business man who had had an extended period of financial lack. He realized the imaging power of your subconscious mind and purchased some “play money” and put the bills of large denomination in his wallet, so that every time he opened it, his eyes would first see those large amounts. Soon, that imaging power had accepted the picture of large amounts of money in his wallet, rather than the previous image of lack.

Don’t just read these tips, try them, see if they work. I bet they will.

Image Success in Family Problems

This is a good story – Catherine Ponder always has great stories to emphasize her points:

A mother was distraught over her son’s behavior which had been pretty disturbing. So, instead of trying to change his behavior with any outer comments or actions, she just began to sit quietly every day and mentally imaged him as she wished him to be. She thought of him as standing in a pool of light and love, as being calm, peaceful and confident, harmonious and happy.

Gradually, he began to express those qualities and became calm, peaceful, confident, harmonious so that in a few months he hardly seemed like the same child.

Be careful what you image for yourself or those who are receptive to your mental images, because it sure will happen. It’s been noticed that, when questioned, realize they found out that their husbands had been cheating on them AFTER they had been imagining the very same thing happening in their lives.

Always give others the benefit of only good mental images. Often life’s results are the difference between constructive and destructive mental images that you entertain for yourself and others. What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

You really can make this work.

How to image unselfishly

We mentioned this in the last post but it’s important to discuss it in greater detail.

You don’t have to covet someone else’s things because they wouldn’t satisfy you even if you had them. What belongs to someone else never quite fits your needs.

When you see something another person has that you would like to have, don’t covet it or mentally try to image and force it to you. Realize that the person’s good that is appealing to you is really just an indication that similar good is on its way to you and that you CAN have it.

Declare to yourself: “I, too, am in contact with the source of that good. The Divine equivalent of that good is now on its way to me, and i gratefully accept it. My own similar blessings now appear. They are satisfying and appropriate and for this I give thanks.”

There is no danger in using the imaging power of the mind unselfishly. It is only when you use it selfishly, to try to force from another, that you run into difficulties.

Also, you should never mentally image for someone else that which you would not want to experience yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you. Instead, just imagine health, wealth, and happiness for others, as well as for yourself.

Image in detail

It may take you awhile to get results – or it may seem as if you’re not getting any results.

If that’s the case, you may not be imaging in detail. Remember how we’ve talked about how you have to be specific in your affirmations and when you make lists of your desires, you must be specific. It’s the same with imaging.

Once you can picture the complete, detailed result, you can essentially dismiss the matter from your mind completely and know that it will soon manifest itself.

It really is worth the time and effort to picture as much of your desires as possible on a daily basis. It will unfold itself as if it were a Michelangelo painting, each detail becoming more and more identifiable the more you picture.

You’ll be surprised that once you have everything pictured in detail,it will take little or no physical action to produce the result. It will most likely be accomplished for you since you’ve already done the greatest work in your mind. There are many scientific studies that prove the power of imaging.

The more you develop your imaging power, the more it seems the whole world rushes toward you – in a positive manner!

You are constantly making mental images anyway whether you think you are or not. The mind thinks through mental pictures.

If you’re having difficulties (whether it be financial or with your health or even your relationships), you will continue to have those difficulties until you change your mental images. You are thinking about, talking about, and picturing lack and your mind is producing what you are imaging.

Change your pictures, talk and think plenty, and you’ll have it.

If we mentally image what belongs to someone else as ours, we are asking for trouble. We never need to image someone else’s good as being taken from them and coming to us. What belongs to others is NOT ours by divine right. If it were, it would have been given to us in the first place. And since it is not ours by divine right, it would do us no good if we got it.

Image what is yours, image it in detail and it will appear just as if you have created it! Try it, you’ll like it.

Quickie Wheels of Fortune

You can make these for periods of a month at a time. Put pictures and phrases for things that you need for that period of time. When you expect immediate results your mind will go to work for you much faster to produce and immediate result. Sometimes if you make wheels of fortune for longer periods, your imagination may not be sufficiently stimulated to do much about it.

The point behind these wheels of fortune is to turn the current of your thought and expectation from “I can’t have” to “I can have”; change it from despair to hope, from discouragement to encouragement; from failure to success.

You’re going to be using all these techniques and they will complement each other to bring you success as soon as you have convinced your thinking (your subconscious) that you can and will have it!

If you are not free to make a large wheel of fortune to help you change your mental images, perhaps you can make a notebook. In the notebook you’ll put pictures you cut from magazines of the good you desire. Also put catchy phrases you can clip from the paper or magazines (or even off the Internet).

Then when you have a lull in your day, you can take out the book and browse through it. This will keep your imaging power uplifted, expectant, and at work for her highest good.

No one around you will be aware of what you’re doing and it can keep you from being discouraged, depressed or doubtful. The one thing you really want to prevent is becoming doubtful. I use this affirmation “Nothing and no one can interfere with the achievement of my goals, my prosperity and peace of mind, not even myself.” Last year that saved my bacon (as they say) in a way I have only told a few people – but in a miraculous way – one of the three top “miracles” that I have been blessed with in my life. So try it.
