visualize things and make them happen

I think it will take a while to accomplish this visualization but I also work on it too. I exercise daily and I keep track of my eating, which now I am eating a Thai crunchy snack, instead of an apple. ;] I know it’s not good to the goal but but but but….;]

I eat slowly.
I exercise everyday.
I permit myself to eat sweets once in a while to prevent myself from craving them too much. ;]
I share food with people so I don’t need to eat them all.
I drink a lot of herbal tea. I don’t like drinking pure water.
I take stairs instead of elevator, I don’t have elevator at home. ;]
I eat fruit and veggies daily.

I was before afraid of deep water. I couldn’t swim in the sea without wearing a lifejacket but I did great in the pool. I want to swim freely in the sea so I started to visualize myself swimming in the sea without a lifejacket on.

Whenever, I swam in the pool, I worked on visualization by seeing myself swim like a fish in the sea. I was not afraid. I swam as far as I could to see beautiful and colorful coral reefs. I saw myself without lifejacket on.

On my last trip to the island, I did as I visualized. I put on fins (I knew I was cheating but I felt secure with them.) I jumped into the sea with a lifejacket but I didn’t wear it. I swam dragging it along but not wearing it. After I got used to the water and fear started to fade away, I left the lifejact on the boat and swam near my cousin who wore lifejacket. Fear was still there floating after me but less. On the last spot that the boat rider dropped us, I tried not to hang on anyone but swam alone. I tried not to think about fear but focus on the fish and coral reefs. A while after I swam alone, I forgot about the fear and swam freely. The fear did not 100% disapprear but I have overcome one of my fears. I need to practice more both swimming and visualization.

I’ve heard about this but never really read a book about it. But I have tried to do it once.

I first visualized about moving to new place. At that time, my sister and I didn’t have any idea when to move becuase we still couldn’t sell the location. When I was there, I saw myself moving, cleaning, doing things in my shop and in my room. I also wrote about them in my diary when I was at old place. When it was time to move and after moving, I felt that the things I did here already happened. I didn’t feel that it was the first time I did them at new place but I already did it in my visualization.

I don’t know how it worked but it already happened. I am here in new place.
