Visualization Practices for Everyday Life

In our previous blogs, we have seen how powerful Visualization is to achieve our goals and desires. In this blog we would be focussing on some specific areas in our day to day life where we can apply Visualization.

Some of them are given below :

• Preparation for your work : Before you go for work, it is always good to Visualize how your day needs to be structured. You have to first think through your mind what are the tasks or activities that you would be doing today. After that for each of the task, visualize how you would be approaching it. Identify any problem area and visualize in your mind what would be the solution to overcome it. Once you spend sometime and do this Mental preparation exercise everyday before work, you would notice that you would be very confident and relaxed at your workplace and also you would be able to complete your tasks in an efficient manner.

• Preparation for a meeting : Suppose you are asked to deliver a presentation to your clients and higher management. In such a scenario, 1 or 2 days before the presentation, it is good to visualize and prepare in your mind how you would be presenting yourself in a simple and an understandable manner. You can visualize everyone in the meeting getting impressed with your ideas and suggestion. You would prepare and be ready with a backup plan in case something goes wrong. By following these steps it would help you to deliver your presentation with full of confidence, energy and enthusiasm.

• Preparation for an Interview : We have seen and heard many people getting dipped in fear and tension when they hear the word Interview. Here you need to realize that maintaining such negative thoughts only makes you perform bad in the Interview. Is there any better way to approach an interview? Yes there is. Here again just 1 or 2 days before the interview just visualize yourself talking in front of the Interviewer in a calm, composed and a confident manner. You can also do a mirror exercise by speaking about certain topics related to your interview in front of the mirror. You can also visualize the Interviewer showing a happy face and appreciating your responses. By following these techniques you can easily overcome any form of fear or tension related to your interview. 

• Preparation for an exam : Even before an exam it is always good to relax and avoid any form of fear or tension. The disadvantage of fear or tension in this case is that, it can make you forget some of the points that you had studied well before but just couldn't recollect it at the time of writing. By reserving some amount of time for Visualization would help you to become more confident on the exam day and would help you to recollect all that you have studied. If you feel that there is less time to devote for Visualization the day before exams, then you can also practice it at bed just before you go to sleep. 

• Interaction with relatives, friends, neighbors : Just before you meet an important person, it is always good that you mind rehearse and visualize what all you need to discuss with that person. This helps you to recollect all the things you wish to ask them. The other person would also be happy and satisfied that he was able to spend some quality time with you. 

• Learning a new skill : Many times you might have observed that learning a new skill is also dependent on how well you have programmed the steps in your mind. Let's take the example of a driving exam or the case of playing a piano. If you have repeatedly visualized the steps to be performed in your mind it helps you to perform very well in the actual situation than any person who hasn't done any mental preparation. 

The above are some of the areas in life where you can apply Visualization. If you would spend some time daily to apply these steps in your daily life then you are bound to perform well and succeed in every aspect of your life.
