The Treasure Chest: A Secret Weapon To Making Your Dreams A Reality

When you choose to have something new in your life - a new wardrobe, car, house, more money, better health - it takes time, energy and work to get it. Time and energy are needed to find the items you want and buy them. It takes even more work to keep things in good condition for continued use and beauty. It is the same with a dream. In order to have your dream work, you will need to do some dream work.

Once you have set your goals and prepared a dream (wish) list, the most important thing you can do next is to become very clear about what your dream will look like. It is time to create a Treasure Chest - a symbolic visual representation of your dream.

Creating Your Treasure Chest

Once you have identified in your mind who you are and where you are going in life, a focus and sense of purpose will wash over your entire being. Your confidence levels will explode and you will start to attract into your life the tools necessary for obtaining your dreams and goals. Your self-esteem will come from within, without being dependent upon comparisons with anyone else. Now it is time to put your dreams into pictures on what is called your life Treasure Chest. As it takes form, you will begin to treasure the ideas you are creating, and the picture can be worth a thousand words! Your Treasure Chest will take you one step further, beyond who you are now to what you could become.

Look through magazines and cut out pictures and words that portray your dream. If you have artistic talent, you may prefer to do your own drawings and designs. Arrange these on a piece of poster board to create an attractive picture of the you you want to be. Include pictures or photographs of the aspects of your life - your ideal body, family, friends, relationship, home, car, work, accomplishments, finances, leisure activities, vacations - anything and everything that's important to you!

All around us, ads and commercials lure us to identify ourselves with slender, sexy bodies leaning against newly purchased sports cars, reclining in fantasy dream homes, and lounging with adoring partners on luxury ocean liners or pristine tropical beaches. Commercial advertising is predicated on the powerful effectiveness of such images to get us to bring these desirable experiences into our lives. In creating your Treasure Chest, you are designing your own ad and picturing your own perfect life. Be as creative as you like, but follow one rule: you can only paste in a picture when you are willing to take the action required to make it a reality. Be sure that the images you select belong to you - don't borrow ideas from someone whose values differ from yours.
