I’d like to share with you how my clients work on achieving their dreams. We call it IVVM, its a simple 4-step process that is repeated consistently.
1. Idealization: First, it is important to describe your most ideal life. record this somewhere, in a notebook, on your computer, but definitely not ‘just ion your head’…it must be something real. Include as much detail as you possibly can, and don’t holiday back with your aspirations – Shoot for the stars and at the very least you’ll hit the moon!
2. Visualization: Invest 10 minutes each morning and 10 in the evening-with your eyes closed-visualizing everything you have written about, dreamt about and thought about as if it’s already real. Buy a large pile of magazines, several poster boards, scissors and glue, cut out words, pictures events, places and things that form your dreams and create a large collage of your dreams, or what we call a Dream Chart. You can also do this using digital tools, e.g. pinterest, canva, powerpoint, compiling images you find online.
4. Verbalization:Make a list of 21 “I AM” statements about your future self. Describe traits you want to build on to become the person you want to be in order to do the things you want to do, to have and experience all you dream of. State these “I AM” statements out loud every single day (at least twice) with as much passion, volume and desire as you possibly can.
5. Materialization: Choose every day to tell yourself that all you dream of will be yours and when you believe it you will see it.
