In our search for ways to achieve our goals in personal development, many people find success through using the techniques of visualization and affirmations.
Marc Allen, in a video of just over 11 minutes in length, talks about some of the ways he has achieved his dreams.
He explores a number of the techniques for self-realization that he used and continues to use, and answers some common questions.
- Why don’t more people achieve success?
- Setting and achieving goals
- Overcoming doubts and fears
- The power of affirmations
- When and how should we affirm?
- The power of our subconscious
- How negative or limited thinking interferes with our achieving our goals
- How to stay on course with your goals and aspirations
- The power of the Internet
Here’s the link to the video in which Marc shares his views on why “The power of our minds is incredible.”

Most of us won’t admit it, but we often spend a large proportion of our mind-time on revisiting the past and particular in visiting the future by anticipating and visualizing how our life situation is likely to unfold; and in so looking, we tend not to foresee options but rather make assumptions on probabilities, often negatively.
In trying to be in two places at once, we miss opportunities in the most important third place…the present moment.
Eckhart Tolle sums up this paradox nicely in his book The Power of Now:
“To be identified with your mind is to be trapped in time; the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation…This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future.
The Now is the most precious thing there is. The eternal present is the space in which your whole life unfolds.
Life is now.”
