This is about allowing your imagination to have free rein. “What do I mean by this?” I am going to suggest an activity, to help activate your creative juices, allowing your imagination to wander, and for you to dream.
Talking to a friend about “where were we 10 years ago”. Sparked the idea- “What would your life look like in 10 years’ time, in 2027?”
First step – “Think back to where you were 10 years ago?” “What were you doing?” “Where were you living?” “What was your career or work?” “What were some of your activities that you did? and any other questions that you can think of”.
Second Step – present day, “Where are you today?” “What has changed for you?” “What is different?” “Have your hobbies, pastimes and leisure activities changed? Or are you still enjoying them? or do you have new ones?” “What lessons, and gifts did you learn along the way, to make you the person you are today?”
Third step – “What will your life be like in 10 years’ time, in 2027?“
Take time with this. By going to a special place, you love, where you won’t be disturbed. Here are some ideas to get you started – “Where are you living? What do you want to achieve? What work are you doing? What adventures, or pastimes have you done? and planning to do” Have pen and paper ready so you can write down what starts to come through.
To help you relax and get into a calm state, take some deep breaths, this will help calm your mind and body. Breathe in deeply on the count of three, and breathe out on the count of 3, and do this two or three times, until you find your mind and body to relax. Or, use whatever method that helps you into a meditative state.
Allow your mind to wander, “where will you be in 10 years’ time? What will you be doing?” “What pastimes are you doing? Have you travelled?” Using suggestion in the third step, if you feel blocked. As the ideas start to flow start writing, no critiquing or editing, just keep writing till you are finished.
Once finished read back what you have written. You may be surprised and excited at what you have written down. This may be your vision for the future.
Over the next few days, you may notice ideas, thoughts, popping into your head. Write these thoughts, ideas down, even if they are simple, and you think you will remember them, you often don’t. These ideas are the Universe speaking to you. Helping you to create a plan, and action steps to move you forward, in what you are wanting to achieve.
- You may be inspired to create a vision board.
- Having what you wrote somewhere, where you can see it regularly.
- Or putting it away somewhere special, and bringing it out in 12 or 24 months’ time.
When you put something away for a period, and re-read it. You will be surprised what has transpired along the way. You often discover you are heading towards your goals and dreams. You see your accomplishments and successes that you have achieved already, which inspire to keep you moving forward.
