“All I’m saying is that to liberate the potential of your mind, body and soul, you must first expand your imagination. You see, things are always created twice: first in the workshop of the mind and then, and only then, in reality. I call this process ‘blueprinting’ because anything you create in your outer world began as a simple blueprint in your inner world.” ~ Robin Sharma from The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari

Blueprinting. Love that. Reminds me of Stephen Covey’s Habit #2: Begin with the End in Mind. As Sharma says, EVERYTHING is created twice: FIRST in your mind, then in your reality.

Think about it: that place you live in? Check. The computer you downloaded this on? The glass you drink your water from and the toilet you pee in? Check. Check. :)

The challenge is that too often we spend all of our energy thinking about things we DON’T want to manifest and then all the spare time thinking about and blueprinting our vacation so we can escape the stress!

Imagine gaining control of your mind, developing your imagination and ability to envision your ideal life and blueprinting THAT into your consciousness then into your journal and then into your life.

And then DO IT! (For at least a month, please. ;)
