CT4 Tuitorial Essay - Success

2. How does our view of success influence the path we choose in our life? 


Our view of success alone will not clearly unveil the path that we can choose to achieve whatever goals in life.  Before anybody can find his road to success, he must first be able to imagine clearly what he desires as a final outcome.  The power to imagine success is the catalyst that will crystalize the raw perception. Thus the ability of a person to conceive virtually and kinesthically in his mind; the success he desires, is his guiding force that will encompass him in that direction.



How we visualize success uniquely within the domains of our minds is the first basic step. One simple way to set a person in that state is to ask him to close his eyes and virtually see himself in his dream car.  Lets assume that it is a Ferrari that he has worked and paid fully for.  Have him clearly see the type of car; the color of the car, its upholstery and details of the dashboard.  Then have him imagine listening to the sound of the engine as he move it into gear.


And what has kinesthetics got to do with it here? Linking emotions and allowing that video that is running in the mind to take its own course is most important.  This is the way to short circuits the critial factor; a filter that takes reference to our past experience, values, believes and fears.  Critical factor is the devil's advocate. It's this inner voice that sabotages us so often by questioning; "What if ?" and  rebutting; "Yes, but ".  It is that part of our mind that holds us back from ultimate greatness.  It imposes logical thinking separating us from engaging what the heart yearns for.


Coupling the visual, audio and emotion generates a powerful directional force. This physiological-emotional product is called feelings.  Feelings that are stored in our unconscious mind becomes our natural built-in guidance system.  Unleashing this unconscious feeling will lead us to the kind of success that our heart truely desires.  Recognizing that enables us to identify what we truly stand for. Letting these unregulated feelings track between the time-space state of our mind, only observing the unfolding mysteries will help us understand ourself better.  In the earlier example, we will understand where the money to buy that Ferrari can possibly be coming from.  That will eventually equate to the kind of work and lifestyle that one enjoy soaking in.  This knowledge helps us to initiate the course charting in that direction.


Richard Bentler is the founder of the Neuro Linguistic Programming. He has created a technology that people can find success in everything they set out to do with their life. Steven G. Jone uses the same technique that expands into his Life Coaching program. Our very own inspirational pace setting guru; Adam Khoo, calls this creating states in his Patterns of Excellence program.  Being true to our feelings is important in helping us choose the path that create not just a successful, but a unique meaningful life.
