I'm not a big woo woo guy, but a story from John Assaraf always stuck with me:
===
“In 1995 John Assaraf created a vision board and put it up on the wall in his home office.
Whenever he saw a materialistic thing he wanted or a trip he wanted to take, he’d get a photo of it and glue it to the board. Then he’d see himself already enjoying the object of his desire.
In May 2000, having just moved into his new home in Southern California a few weeks earlier, he was sitting in his office at 7:30 AM when his 5-year-old son Keenan came in and sat on a couple of boxes that had been in storage 4 years.
Keenan asked his father what was in the boxes. When John told him his vision boards were in the boxes, Keenan replied, “Your vision whats?”
John opened one of the boxes to show Keenan a vision board.
John smiled as he looked at the first board and saw pictures of a Mercedes sports car, a watch, and some other items, all of which he had acquired by then.
But as he pulled out the second board, he began to cry.
On that board was a picture of the house he had just bought and was living in!
Not a house like it, but the house!
The 7,000-square-foot house that sits on 6 acres of spectacular views, with a 3,000-square-foot guest house and office complex, a tennis court, and 320 orange trees—that very home was a home he had seen in a picture that he had cut out of Dream Homes magazine 4 years earlier!”

Speaking of John Assaraf, Mike McMahon helped launch his coaching program and took it from 0 to $7 million in 6 months ...
He's going to give a case study on this, and share more in a live webinar that he's doing this Friday, July 30th at 2 pm Eastern.
