See It Before You Create It
Whenever someone asks me if I could have imagined everything that has happened in my entrepreneurial journey, I say yes, I saw it every night. You may take that as hyperbole, but today we’re going to talk about this practice that I use each and every night. I hope you will start to do the same.
I choose to do this at night before bed. You may choose a different time and location. When and where doesn’t matter as much as you taking the consistent action.
Close your eyes and picture your business thriving. You’re making strategic decisions with clarity and confidence. Projects are completed efficiently, and your team is motivated and aligned with your vision. What specific achievements come to mind? How does it feel to see everything running smoothly and successfully?
Now, imagine that alongside these external successes, you feel a profound sense of inner peace. You feel connected to your loved ones. You’re calm, centered, and able to be calm during any storm life throws at you. Stress, overwhelm, and anxiety no longer dominate your days. Instead, you approach each situation with a clear and focused mind. How does this inner peace change your daily experience and well-being?
Think about the times you’ve felt most in tune with your True Self—those moments when your actions and decisions were perfectly aligned with your core values. Imagine having this sense of alignment consistently. How does this authenticity affect your interactions with others and your approach to business?
Consider any steps you need to take to bring this vision to life. What specific areas of your business and life will you focus on first?
Once you’ve seen it, you can create it.
In this exercise, you don’t have to know the how in this moment. You just know that it is happening. You see it as done, whether you’re reflecting on a personal milestone or a business milestone.
If you want to take it a step further, you can picture yourself in a community of like-minded entrepreneurs, sharing insights, overcoming challenges together, and learning from each other. How does this collective energy and wisdom amplify your growth?
This powerful exercise has helped me tremendously on my entrepreneurial journey. I hope it helps you as well.
