Picture Exactly What You Want - All the Detail

To achieve what you want in life, you must know exactly what it is, be able to 100% define it, picture every detail of it. People often don’t do this very well.

But here’s the thing: if you can’t picture every detail, then you don’t really know what you want. And if you don’t really know what you want, how can you make it happen?

A big problem for a lot of people is that what they want is a moving target. That will never work. You have to make a decision, before you can go for it. That’s the only way you can create a strong vision.

Writing down a description is the place to start. Make a list of all the things that would make you happy. Everything. Don’t play devil’s advocate - write it all down in 5 minutes. Then prioritize - choose the top 3. The prioritize again - choose #1.

Now describe #1 completely. Picture achieving that goal. In fact, picture it again and again and again and again. As you run through that movie a few hundred times, make a list of everything you see. Every smallest detail. If a question comes up, run the movie by again. Write down the elements that become more clear.

The idea is to be able to run a perfect version of that movie in your head, time after time after time. And watch closely, because over time, other smaller elements will become clear. Add them to your list.

Start working for this goal after you’ve watched the movie a few times, long before you have every detail totally clear. The harder you work at it, the harder it will be for you to give up.

That is the way you set out to get what you want in life.
