If you haven't read The Secret you really need to. It's a very powerful book. I've been trying to apply the principles found there to my life. Hey, if it makes your life better it's worth a try right? My favorite concept so far is gratitude. You wake up in the morning and you immediately start thinking about everything you're grateful for. This really sets the tone for a wonderful day, trust me I know. The next thing that really caught my attention was the visualization board. Right after I read that section I went straight to the store and bought me a cork board. Now it's up on the wall with pictures of things I want. This is how it works: You put pictures up on it of things you want, pick one picture and look at it for a good long time, then visualize yourself having that item or going on that vacation or looking that way. You have to see it as if it's yours, you have to feel the feelings as if you already have it. Say, I pick the picture of my future car. I'll look at it and then close my eyes and imagine myself opening the door of that car and getting in it in great detail. I imagine the feel of the metal handle on my hand, the way the seat gives as I sit on it, I actually see my fingers wrapping around the steering wheel. As I visualize this I let that good feeling of knowing "this is my car" wash over me. When you do this, when you visualize, you're making that desire a reality. You continue this routine and wait for it to materialize. It will, it's the law of the universe. Give it a try and read The Secret. You'll see what I mean!

Fascinating concept. When I get done with what I am reading, I will read the Secret.

On TV they were highlighting one of the male Olympic gymnast from the USA and he had a visualization board too. He said that's what helped him make it to the Olympics.
I'm telling you, this stuff works.
