“Play With the Idea That it Might Happen”—Maxwell Maltz : Blog #5009

Do you not have more dreams and goals and things to do?  And what if, what if, just this day, for a few minutes this day, and tomorrow, and the next day, you would not dwell on what you don’t want, instead, anticipate what you do want?  How about turn it into a game, a “what if,” “act as if,” game, a “will happen soon” game, “I have already arrived” game.  “Why not toy and play with your mind.”  Play with a possibility.  Have something fixed in your mind: A wish, a dream, a vacation, a book to write, a certain amount of money, perfect health, the right person showing up, all is possible because you are willing to “play with the idea,” “play with the possibility,” dance ‘round and ‘round, as you are “dancing circles ‘round the sun.”—Rodney Crowell.

Be willing to pretend until it becomes real in your head.  Pretend you can and will contend.  What if in your belief pathways you seared the idea, hey this thing is not only possible, but it is easy, much easier than I have ever thought it would be?  To have it, to accomplish it, just begin to believe it.   Believe it is all smooth sailing, ships are coming, mailbox money is showing up, and all you get to do is bring yourself to believe it. Think and wonder your way to the most delightful results, happenings, happenstance and glorified playful possibilities.

Let your mind be your friend, an ally, a compatriot that is always on the lookout for an incredible  opportunity, a way of getting, a way of being, a way of accomplishing your most prized aspirations, endeavors, dreams come true, ideals and worthy causes showing up at your doorstep.  Then guess what?  Then the doors will open.  People will show up.  Ideas will come to you.

Options are everywhere, right now, because you are willing to “play with the idea,” with the possibility of what you want to happen.  And, yes, it begins to percolate on the edge of your creating imagination; it begins to show up in the most inexplicable ways.

Play with your journey through time. Play with your most motivating desires: A spur-of-the- moment vacation; “a dance hall dance”; a dream catcher in the still of night that starts it all in motion— elevating, creating and manufacturing the things you want to have happen.

Why? Because you are willing to believe and play with the idea that it might happen. 

Play with the idea that someday came. Play with the possibilities dancing in the eaves, that you are the mind creator of everything amazing and marvelous and incredulous in your magical life. And it will all appear as if by magic wand waved over the ordinary, as if the angels are on your side.

Believe all your dreams are coming up to meet you.  Hold a picture in your mind daily, until this creative mechanism, this God-given gift, this tool, will work for you too, no matter what your request.

“No request is too extreme if your heart is in your dream.”  And who said that?
