Successful and unsuccessful people

 Successful people are those who visualize the kind of success they want to enjoy, in advance. Prior to every new experience, the successful person visualizes previous success experiences that are similar to the upcoming event. A successful salesperson will visualize and remember previous successful sales presentations. A successful trial lawyer will visualize and remember his performance in court during a previous successful trial. A successful doctor or surgeon will visualize and remember his or her successful treatment of a patient in the past.

Unsuccessful people on the other hand, also use visualization, but to their detriment. Unsuccessful people, prior to a new event, recall,reflect upon and visualize their previous “failure experiences.” They think about the last time they failed or did poorly in this area and  they imagine failing again. As a result, when they go into the new experience, their subconscious minds have been preprogrammed for failure, rather than success.
