A Good Swift Kick

Here's a quote from my mom: "Therapy is a boat that can take you to the other side, but then you have to GET OFF."

Visualization is the same way. Spend some of your time imagining how your dream life will be and how you will feel while living it, and with the rest of your time, start living that life!

Take no prisoners, my friends!

Brain Processes Real and Imagined Objects Differently

nobody@vox.com(Amp It Up!) — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 09:25:29 -0700

A study conducted in 2002 at Vanderbilt University showed that two completely different parts of the brain are used when recognizing objects in the real world (ventral pathway) versus imagining them (dorsal pathway).

When examined in the light of amplifying possibility into reality, it made me think some really wacky stuff. Stuff like...

...why does the brain need two different pathways to do this?

Is there some hidden capacity in the dorsal pathway that we will one day discover that will help us understand how visualizations can become real?

Is there some kind of cosmic signaling that happens when we imagine things that might happen to us, or that we might create?

Are we tapping into an available reservoir of past (and possibly future) experience in order to help us "see" better?

If we really only use 30% of our brain, does it behoove us to visualize on a regular basis and get really good at it, in order to exercise more of our brain power?

In my studies, I've gathered a collection of methods for improving your ability to visualize in powerful ways. I'll be sharing those with the subscribers of my Possibility Tips newsletter. I send out a Possibility Tip about once a week. You can subscribe by visiting http://www.kimmarcille.com.

Wishing you every possibility!
