They say that seeing is believing. That’s something that I definitely agree with.
I have done many things in my life and plan to do many more, just based on seeing others succeed before me and realizing that it’s possible.
Some people can’t believe it until they see results, though. Those are the types who might not want to start a new endeavor with you until they see results, and then they’ll try to join along. By that time, it’s too late.
No matter what it is, we must start with the end in mind. If there’s no one or nothing to model after, that’s fine. Visualize your future self achieving whatever it is you want, and let that be your belief and motivation.
I’ve won a lot of first-place ribbons running track, and every race that I took first place in, I had already visualized myself winning days before. The same goes for life. Once I see and believe, my actions start to follow, leading to whatever I set out to do.
