If you have affirmations, add pictures to them. If you have them memorized, add
corresponding pictures and hold them in your mind while you speak affirmation. If your affirmations are written down somewhere, add pictures to paper on which affirmations are written.
For example, if you are affirming a million-dollar bank account and your dream home in hills, find pictures of home you would like to have, and find pictures of a bank vault full of cash and paste them onto same sheet with your affirmations.
"Chicken Soup for Soul" co-creator Jack Canfield had some very important insight on how to supercharge power of mind-imagery. He recommends that you use mind-imagery by imagining you are in a movie. In quote below note how he recommends you see YOU IN movie as opposed to WATCHING a movie OF YOU. He says, "If you're watching a movie of you, you see your whole body up on screen. But when you're in movie, you just see your own hands. You're looking out through your own face. You can't see your own face right now. We call this associated imagery versus disassociated imagery, which is more powerful to produce change. So whenever you visualize something you want, visualize it from inside of your body" (i.e. You In movie) "what it would look like if you had it. Don't see yourself outside of your world. It's not as powerful."
So, for next two weeks, I want you to latch onto images that go through your mind when you meditate and imagine how your goals would look when achieved. Then, continue twice a day with affirmations, except for now I want those images you've selected to be included and to be a central part of your daily mind exercises. Make sure that you take Mr. Canfield's advice and see images from inside your own body.
I hope that your life already shows signs of powerful, positive change. I look forward to speaking with you again in a couple of weeks.
To Your Success, Joel S. Nelson

Joel S. Nelson has spent years studying the power of the subconscious mind and the science behind success. He believes that growing up we were all taught the wrong things about success and personal achievement by our parents, in school, and on T.V. and that society perpetuates those misconceptions. Joel's goal is to reverse the damage done by bringing the science of achievement to one million people by the year 2020.
