BEFORE you throw out old magazines, grab a pair of scissors and go through the pages again. When you spot an image or article that interests you, cut it out. Is that print ad on a Mediterranean cruise appealing to you? Do those arms of Jessica Alba’s make you wish yours were as toned? What about that new laptop you want so bad but is currently out of your budget? Cut, cut, cut! When you’ve got your cut-outs, organize them in a way that you can always see them. Ideas are to prepare a journal dedicated to all these cut-outs, stick them on your ref door or have a special area in your work desk for those images. What are these for then? These are your dream cut-outs. These could be the things you dream of having, experiences you wish would come soon. By having them near you, by being reminded of them, you may somehow work for them subconsciously. Better yet, actively work on those dreams. The “Field of Dreams” famous quote is, “If you build it, they will come.” In this case, if you visualize it, they will come to you too. Take a look at your dream images everyday. Visualize yourself having them already. This visualization exercise can help you realize that you could be steps away from achieving these things and experiences. Sometimes it’s as simple as being reminded of them, so that we don’t lose our way claiming them while we go about our every day.
Cut it, dream it, claim it!
