How to Become Your Best Self: A Simple Recipe
Envision yourself being your best.
Name your primary roles in life, however you happen to see them: partner, parent, student, salesman, accountant, business owner, seeker of truth. Now imagine you had perfected that role, become the very best at it that you could ever be. Picture yourself as the best parent, the best partner, running the most successful business, enlightened.
Wrap the image in light. Make it big in your mind, and radiant.
Stare at it for awhile. Watch it move through its day. See how it moves, what it does, how it walks, how it interacts with others.
Imagine how it feels. Pretend you feel that way: confident, at peace, aware, responsive, at ease.
Now imagine what you’re seeing is a true image of yourself a little distance down the road. Then see the road, bathed in light, leading right back to where you are right now, and connecting to your heart.
Ask yourself what one thing you could do to advance yourself farther down that road. Ask yourself what one thing you could stop doing to make the journey smoother, surer.
Repeat.
