The three most powerful tools in creating and sustaining personal change (and New Year’s Resolutions) are to:
- Write
- Visualize
- Act
Here’s why.
- When you write down your thoughts, you actually change your world a little bit. “The pen is mightier than the sword” in this case hones your points for change. When you have to put into words that which you long for, when your hand moves as if creating the very change you want, you actually move forward in time.
- Visualizing effectively, you engage your entire mind-body in helping you move forward in a holistic progression. Visualization takes you into the reality that you wish to create, and gives your brain something to ‘fill in the spaces’ on for change.
- When you act on your resolution in any way, you experiment. And all experimentation is grist for the mill of change. Science has moved forward more on the backs of many failed experiments than on the backs of the few successes.
