Chapter 57: Design your ideal day “I’ll see it when I believe it!” Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
This is the favorite exercise of many coaches and the starting point for many
coaching processes.
Design your ideal day! What
would you like your ideal life to be? What would you do if you had all the time and money in the world? Where would you live? Would you have a house or an apartment? What's your job? Who are you with? What are you doing? It's time to dream
big again! Don't limit yourself. Imagine your ideal life vividly! How does it feel?
Write it down in detail! By now you have learnt about the power of writing
things down!
Write down exactly how you would like your ideal life to be. Have a special notebook or scrapbook for your ideal day/life creation. Many
people even make a collage with photos that represent their dreams or ideals and
put it up somewhere where they can see it daily. Very important: Make it FUN!
It’s very important to create this vision and have it in mind. So let’s start:
1) No distractions. Sit down for an hour. Turn off everything. No cell phone,
no radio, no TV.
2) Make it come alive! Describe everything. What time do you wake up?
What kind of home do you live in? How’s your health? Who is surrounding
you? What’s your job? Remember there are NO LIMITS!
3) Once a week, read your ideal day out with enthusiasm. Put a lot of
emotion in it!
Optional: You can also tape record yourself reading out your ideal day with emotion
and listen to it every night before going to bed.
Are you ready? Start writing out your ideal day right now!
