Want It, See It, Get It

We'd like to hear your story. How did you use visualization techniques to determine what you wanted and then go get it? Please let us know how you did it, and we may feature your story in the TV or Internet reality show we have in the works. Just send in your story.

Here's one such story:

     I wanted to sell my business, but I wasn't sure who to sell it to or exactly the best way to sell it. So I visualized different possible approaches -- from creating a network of sales associate to selling it but remaining involved to selling it outright. What I visualized most strongly is selling it to buyers who wanted me to stay involved to help promote the business. Then, I visualized different alternatives for finding those buyers, from trying to sell it myself and putting ads on the business sales listings or other places, to hiring a broker to sell it.   The image came to me clearly -- find a broker, so I called several companies about that. But which broker to choose? This time I visualized working with different brokers, and I got a clear "Yes" on one of them, so that's the one I chose. Then, I used visualization to help me imagine how to best pitch my business, and the broker included my ideas in his ads.
     Finally, after I got two potential buyers who were ready to buy now, and one who was interested with an even better deal once he raised the money, I visualized who would be the best buyer, and got a very clear message to "Sell now," even if the buyers are offering less, and so I did -- which is a good thing, because the third buyer with the better offer wouldn't have been able to get his funding when the economy tanked.   As to the other two buyers, I got an "unsure," meaning I needed to get more information, so I delayed the sale a couple of weeks while I learned more about each buyer, and then the decision became very clear. I got a clear "don't trust" message for the second buyer who seemed unclear about how to run my business successfully, and I realized in my heart that I would rather sell the business to no one than him. But in the first case, I saw that I would have to do more training, but that ultimately they would be the better fit, because they did want me to play an active part in helping them grow the business, whereas the second buyer seemed to only reluctantly want me included.   So that's what I did about two months ago, and so far the sale has been going very well. They are gradually learning the business, and meanwhile, I feel good about wanting to help them grow it, because I am still involved.
