"Those were the very first days of my carrier and I was 19 year old guy who was not earning much"
I was sitting in the classroom listening to a lecture which was delivering by one of lecturers I've ever liked most.
And the voice continued....
" ...and I used to wear a "TAG heuer" "
" Oooooo...... "
Class was astounded. Well, how do you avoid the surprise? It was one of the top branded wrist watches.
"And it was a fake one which I had bought for Rs. 500 " ( equal to $ 5)
Sighs of relief.....
And further more he mentioned that sometimes he had used to had his dinner at five star hotels with his small salary dreaming of the life he would like to live.
What do you gonna call him? A day dreamer? Well. Don't be too quick to make any judgments. Today he has become the man he wanted to be.The man of his dreams. He is playing a top role in a prominent bank and he also is a marketing specialist and a confident, influential speaker.
So what I needed was to convince you about the importance of this concept. In other words the importance of "thinking big". This is one f the top secrets from the safes of most successful people in the society.
It has been revealed that your thoughts create who you are. Some people play big roles in the society while living luxurious lives and some stay poor and unhappy without knowing how to achieve their dreams. They grumble about society, government and even about themselves and their inabilities. Using their negative thoughts they repulse their powers though they unaware of it.
Few years ago, after releasing the movie " The Secret", this topic has been widely discussed all over the world.People became aware of this concept of think big and by following it a lot of people achieve their targets, owned the lives they dream t of.
In that movie they've discussed something called vision boards which is directly related to the power of attraction.
Vision board is some kind of a board which contains your dreams as forms of pictures, texts, drawings and anything. In other words the house you like to live in, the car you hit paddles in your dreams etc. You can simply create a vision board using a stack of old magazines and a poster board( or any kinda board like that). For your information, you can find a nice and descriptive post on How to make a vision board @ Christine Kane's blog.
So once you've created your vision board, hang it in a place which you can see frequently. So after that what you have to do is spending few minutes everyday looking at your vision board and dreaming of the life you gonna have. You'll have to wonder at the results at the end.
In the film an enterprenuere called John Assaraf speaks. He tells us about an unforgettable experience of his life.
He had used to use this concept of vision boards and some years later he was working in his office room at his newly pursued house.Suddenly his little son came in and trying to play with some boxes in there.
"What's in this box daddy? " Little one asked him when he asked him to stop making noise.
"Those are my vision boards and I was used to put my dreams and goals in there" While replying to son he opened the box.
Suddenly he was shocked by what he had seen and he began to cry sitting on his bed.
"Why crying?" Little one was curious as you.
Then he showed a vision board to kid which contained a picture of an adorable house which was the same house they've pursued lately.
That was not a fairy tale but a true story.
I hope you've understood about the power of thinking big and that's where you gonna start achieving.Use this great concept in your life and live your dream while others are dreaming.
Vikum,
Thinking big is good. Being realistic and working hard towards a goal is much better.
If you liked movie "secret", you should read the book, it is much better. :-) in my humble opinion.

Hi Vikum - that was a great story in The Sectret, wasn't it? I have heard so many stories like that over the years. I have never actually made a vision board, though I have known about them for over 20 years. I guess I could try it! (I use more "feeling" techniques) - R
yeah. I mean first you should think big, dream about your dreams and then you should work harder towards the goals. Then you'll meet the success. Otherwise they would be just day dreams :) Oh! Have you read it? well I think I must give a try to find it out. Thanks for your humble opinion :) C ya again !
Hi Robin,
20 years? It's almost my age :) Ah ! I'm really glad that you gonna give a try. If you feel like its worth giving a try after reading this, that's what I wanted. Thank you very much for being here :)
Thinking Big is good,but all the same we have to keep our feet firmly on ground...+Go for our Dreams!
The idea about Vision Board is great.
:)
This is a great post! I love the ideas of thinking big and vision boards. I don't have a vision board but this post has reminded me that I need to get started on one ASAP!
Hi Dani,
I'm so glad that you are going to start on a one.It really is something you should try and which worth your effort.Good Luck!
Hi Kasun,
Yeah absolutely true and I like your vision board too :)
pls send more of this to my box
brilliant idea, i have already tried that before and it worked:)
It can dropped your offline marketing costs too if you get it done properly. Detecting someone who not only does SEO but does the content initiation and distribution for you as well as keyword search, updating content on your internet site and blog, having professionaly scripted press releases at poor prices as remarked previous is what suits many small occupation possessors and yet there are some who attempt to do it themselves, they get amazed as they dont have the knowledge or the technical skills to do it quickly and they give up. Thank you for this article! I've just obtained a easily wonderful source about true marketing Taste it!
