CREATE NEW PICTURES

                                                          PERCEPTION

  

      WE CAN CREATE NEW MENTAL MOVIES WHENEVER WE CHOOSE TO DO SO. AND WHEN WE DEVELOP NEW IMAGES THAT EVOKE POWERFUL FEELINGS AND SENSATIONS, WE'LL ACT IN WAYS THAT SUPPORT THOSE NEW PICTURES! SO, THE FIRST STEP IS TO CREATE AN IMAGE OF YOUR DESIRED OUTCOME. YOU ARE LIMITED ONLY BY YOUR IMAGINATION.

     AS YOU KNOW, MOST PEOPLE ARE TERRIFIED ABOUT PUBLIC SPEAKING. IN SURVEY, IT IS LISTED AS THE 1. FEAR THAT PEOPLE HAVE-RANKED AHEAD OF THE FEAR OF DEATH! SO, WHEN MOST PEOPLE ARE ASKED TO EVEN CONSIDER MAKING A SPEECH, WHAT KINDS OF PICTURES DO THEY RUN THROUGH THEIR MINDS? THEY SEETHEMSELVES STANDING NERVOUSLY IN FRON OF THE AUDIENCE. PERHAPS THEY'RE HAVING TROUBLE REMEMBERING WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY. RUN THESE IMAGES OVER AND OVER ON YOUR MENTAL SCREEN AND YOU CAN BE SURE THAT YOU WON'T HAVE MUCH SUCCESS AS A SPEAKER!

           INSTEAD, FORM A PICTURE IN YOUR MIND IN WHICH YOU'RE CONFIDENTLY GIVING YOUR PRESENTATION. THE AUDIENCE MEMBERS ARE LISTENING TO YOUR EVERY WORD. YOU LOOK SHARP. YOUR DELIVERY IS SMOOTH. YOU TELL A FUNNY STORY AND THE AUDIENCE IS LAUGHING. AT THE END, YOU GET A WARM ROUND OF APPLAUSE. PEOPLE COME UP  AFTERWARD TO CONGRATULATE YOU. DO YOU SEE HOW THESE KIND OF MENTAL IMAGES CAN HELP YOU TO BECOME A BETTER SPEAKER?

      REGOGNIZE, HOWEVER, THAT THE PICTURES IN YOUR MIND ARE NOT FULFILLED OVERNIGHT. BUT, BY BEING PATIENT AND BY PERSISTENTLY FORCUSING ON THESE MENTAL IMAGES, YOU'LL AUTOMATICALLY START ACTING IN WAYS THAT SUPPORT YOUR VISION.
