Hey guys,
As most of you know, I am leaving to work in Walt Disney World from May 25th til January 4th of next year. Well, as I also just pledged into a co-ed business fraternity, and our National Convention in Las Vegas is from August 3-7 of this year, and I really, really, really want to go! I have tenatively signed up, but need to talk my Disney manager (Who I haven't met yet...  ) into giving me the 5 days off. Actually, it would really only need to be 3 days off, since we're guaranteed a "weekend", basically 2 days in a row off mid-week when the crowds are less busy. I am in dire need of ways to Creatively Visualize (I think that's what it's called) myself being there at the National Convention in Las Vegas during August 3-7, for I've heard this can work wonders. Please? Can anyone give me some tips? ------------------

I can't give you a specific tried and true technique but I can share with you a similar situation that I went through. I was working at a job that I absolutely did not like ... I liked what I was doing but I did not like that I was grossly underpaid, I had menial duties thrown on my plate at random, I worked ridiculous hours, and the people I worked with were just not very friendly and very gossipy. Anyway, I finally got to the point that I felt trapped there. I started trying to look for jobs but my circumstances at the time made any changes for the better seem far off. For a while I felt miserable but then I just started focusing on what I wanted ... the kind of job I wanted, the hours, the pay, the people, etc. I formed a strong image of myself doing what I liked in that environment. And every day while I was at work (and whenever else I got a chance, like in the shower), I would run this scenario over and over in my head as if it were real. I saw myself at another job being absolutely happy with it. About a month after my almost obsessive visualization (which also helped to relax me at work and made me less stressed as I kept this "fantasy" repeating in my head and it distracted me from my unlikeable "reality") an old friend of a previous employer called me, out of the blue, at work to ask me to go work for him. The hours he offered me were great, the pay increase left my jaw hanging, and I already knew the people there and we got along wonderfully. Seriously, I couldn't believe it. I left my job and took up his offer and I never regretted it.
I think the key was my very deep desire to get what I wanted coupled with active visualization and a positive attitude. I may have been shocked when I actually got what I wanted, but before then I never let myself focus on what would happen if I didn't get a new job I liked ... I knew it would happen, it was just a matter of when. Mind you, I never visualized people specifically or a company specifically, etc. just my specific desires for what was right for me.
If I haven't made any sense, I'm sorry. My head is in the clouds at the moment. A good book to look over would be The Game of Life by Florence Scovel Shinn. It was the one I read at the time that helped me focus, visualize, and stay positive.
Good luck to you!------------------

loe  here is a simple technique from "Creative Visualization" by Shakti Gawain Pink Bubble Technique Sit or lie down comfortably, close your eyes and breathe deeply, slowly, and naturally. Gradually relax more and more deeply. Imagine something that you would like to manifest. Imagine that it has already happened. Picture it as clearly as possible in your mind, or simply feel or sense it. Now, in your mind's eye, surround your fantasy with a pink bubble. Put your goal inside the bubble. Pink is the color associated with the heart, and if this color vibration surrounds whatever you visualize, it will bring to you only that which is in perfect affinity with your being. Now let go of the bubble, and imagine it floating off into the universe, still containing your vision. This symbolizes that you are emotionally "letting go" of it, turning it over to the higher power of the universe to bring it to you. You can do this process one time and let go of it completely, or you can do it regularly for a while. If you want to do it regularly, i recommend doing so every morning when you wake up and again at night before going to sleep. IP: Logged |
