I’ve adhered to and written about the ability for people to write the script for their future conditions. The way this is done is by utilizing the creative power of the subconscious mind. In this creative process the part played at the conscious level is visualization. If we want to live in a cabin by the creek surrounding by maple woods and a community of family and friends we would visualize this everyday.

This process is used by every person everyday, whether they know it or not. So, I have advocated the intentional use of the process as a tool for positive re-creation and change. I noticed recently that my own conditions didn’t reflect my overall vision. About he same time I walked through the TV room to find her highness watching Wayne Dyer. He was talking about changing our conditions with visualization.

My first thought was – ah, him again, I already know this. My second thought was – so since my conditions don’t reflect my favored vision does that mean I’m advocated and writing about something that doesn’t work? Third thought – No, based on all available evidence this subconscious creating is factual – this is just the way it is. And fourth – so why does my life situation look like this?

A little later I decided to do a little intentional envisioning. Then it dawned on me, I’d quit doing this because I’m no good at it. Yep, I’m a visualization backslider. The whole thing is a little strange because visualization is what I’m good at. I visualize things and draw them. I visualize things and build them. I entertained myself as a young teen by visualizing my girlfriend with me while I was doing something I didn’t want to do – like building fences, mowing grass or using a shovel. Hell, I’m kind of a visualization expert.

The problem arises – today – when I sit down to visualize a future situation or condition. What comes to mind is the girlfriend I had when I was fourteen or a stable I designed in 1987. This is a little frustrating. So I’ve decided that I’m going to become a long distance runner. I won’t have to work on anything, I’ll just run. Besides, my friend Tammy said I couldn’t catch her on my best day with a strong wind at my back. I’m going to get started on my new life as a runner – just as soon as this is the #1 addiction help blog in the world.

Seriously though it’s always nice to find the answer to a problem and this is the answer I found: I’ve become a habitual thinker. Yuck!! When I couldn’t, or didn’t, easily conjure up the appropriate vision – I stopped trying.

Needless to say I’m on it. I’m going to spend a good portion of my day today visualizing what I decide is best – as opposed to what my habitual brain/mind complex has grown accustomed to seeing (for me).
