- First, consider a talent or behavior that you desire to see in yourself. Second, ask yourself who this program will benefit. Third, what is your passion? Fourth, think about your highest intention for this program. Fifth, take note of what benchmarks or behaviors you’ll see when you map out this program - what would you be doing, saying, and what would be your timeline.
- Think about six reasons on how your program is congruent and make a timeline - like making progress in your program every two weeks.
- Visualize what it would look like for you to have mapped out this program. Create a positive visualization of your desired outcomes.
“You can construct self-defining memories from this moment forward by visualizing what you’d like to see. It helps shape your identity, it also builds your self-efficacy” - Dr. Dee
