It is evident that the quality of our first creation is significantly impacted by our ability to use our creative right brain. The more we are able to draw upon our right brain capacity, the more significantly we will be able to visualize, produce, go beyond the limits of time and present circumstances.

Expand perspective.

Through the powers of your imaginations you can visualize what you want to be, write it down be specific. And now you must be thinking why do you want to write it down? But writing down what you want to be reminds you everyday. And if you are consistent to that you will achivie what you want to be.

There are a number of techniques using your imagination that can put you in touch with your values. But the result of every one I have ever used is the same. When people seriously undertake to identify what really matters most to them in their lives, what they really want to be and to do, they become very reverent. They start to think in larger terms than today and tomorrow.

Visualize and affirmation.

Personal leadership is not a singular experience. It doesn’t begin and end with the writing of a personal mission statement. It is rather, the ongoing process of keeping your vision and values before you and aligning your life to be congruent with those most important things. And in that effort, your powerful right brain capacity can be a great help to you on a daily basis as you work to integrate your personal mission statement into your life.

I can use my right brain power of visualization to write an “affirmation” that will help me become more congruent with my deeper values in my daily life.

I can spend a few minutes each day and totally relax my mind and body. I can think about situations in which my goal might fail. I can visualize it in rich detail. I can visualize how it would be to be sucessfull. And also visualize where i am and is it the right way i’m goin to be successfull.

The more clearly and vividly I can imagine the detail, the more deeply I will experience it. By doing this i won’t be taking the situation normally, i’ll take every step carefully, with creativity.

And if I do this, day after day my behavior will change. Instead of living out of the scripts given to me by society or by genetics or my environment, I will be living out of the script I have written from my own self-selected value system.

Before a performance, a sales presentation, a difficult confrontation, or the daily challenge of meeting a goal, see it clearly, vividly, relentlessly, over and over again. Create an internal “comfort zone.” Then, when you get into the situation, it doesn’t scare you.

Your creative, visual right brain is one of your most important assets, both in creating your personal mission statement and in integrating it into your life.
