Visualization

My swimmer kid had a swim meet recently and she did great. As with many kids, one of her favorite events is the 50 freestyle. In this meet, she was seeded first and ended up getting first in the finals. What I've learned about competing in any 50-yard event is that since it's a sprint, you have to be perfect to beat the other people in the pool. Every little mistake can cost you. You have to have a perfect dive, perfect turn, and a perfect finish. As a spectator watching the event, you can't actually tell who wins. The difference between first and second was .02 in this particular race. Results aside, what she told me after the event was pretty impressive. She said that before the race, her coach asked her to visualize. She visualized one version of the race and realized that in that version she would have to take an extra kick. So, she changed the visualization, went through it twice, and ended up out touching her competitor, exactly as she had visualized. The next step for her was to call a larger shot. She is currently visualizing what is the next step in her life. After a tangible result, she realized that in order to get to the level of success she desires, she needs to put it out in the universe what she's looking to accomplish in order to make it so. Understanding that it's easier for kids to accomplish their goals because life happens so fast, I really feel like this kind of practice can help everyone. No one is immune from calling your shot and making it so. If you would like a list of my favorite tools and tricks, check out my resource page at resources.timehackingradio.com.
