The Value of Picturing Your Goals

Several years ago I did a goal setting course, and one of the things we did during the class was to make ourselves a poster with pictures cut from magazines or wherever we could find them of the things we wanted to achieve for the year, and we also made a list on a piece of paper.

I had a slogan from my bank's letter head as it was my goal to save money, I also had a booklet from the Spa Resort at Hepburn Springs among other things on my poster.

I did as our teacher suggested and hung it near my bed so it was the first thing I saw in the morning and the last thing I saw at night so was constantly reminded.

By the end of the year I'd saved more than double what I'd set myself, and I spent 3 days in Hepburn Springs and had a day at the spa resort getting all sorts of pampering done, and all my goals were reached that year and most since.
