Do you know what *The Zone* is? The Zone is a place where you are in control, you are on top of situation, you are succeeding effortlessly. Can you remember a specific time and place like that: at work, in sports, at home, or whenever?Remember it fully. Step into that experience, and as you do, take your time to appreciate state you are now in -- seeing and hearing experience again, feeling things you felt then. Now, notice submodalities -- sights, sounds, and sensations OF experience. Make a note of them.
Now, clear your mind.
When your mind is clear, select an area in your life in which you already experience confidence, but haven't yet felt a sense of mastery, of ultimate success. Select one you can vividly see, hear, and feel.
Step into experience and notice submodalities -- sight, sound, and feelings -- there.
Then step out.
Now, remember submodalities from your mastery experience, and submodalities with this one. Notice which submodalities are different between two experiences. Do you see something in first that you don’t see in second? Feel something different? Hear something different?
OK, again, clear your mind.
Go back to situation you just recalled (the one in which you haven’t yet experienced a sense of mastery), and this time transform it into mastery state of mind submodalities. Hear, see, feel what you felt with mastery experience, only now you’re doing it with this experience.
How does this action -- putting submodalitites of your mastery state of mind into a different situation -- change your perception and feelings? What has changed? In what ways? Take your time to appreciate this newly changed state. Enjoy clarity of mind, feeling of totality or wholeness, sense of confidence.
