TEDxRainier - Patti Dobrowolski - Draw Your Future


Here are some quotes taken from the video:
You talk about your dream to your partner and your friends, but more often than not, you continue to do those same behaviours that keep you from making the change.
Research shows that the odds of you making a change in your life - 9 to 1. Even if you're facing a life threatening illness.
You can live the life you desire. It's right there in front of you. But in order to achieve it, you must first see it, then believe it, and then you must graciously ask and train your brain, to help you execute your vision.
How do we see our vision? Through picture. A picture can create movements. A picture can unite nations. A picture can pull at your heart, and fill you with a deep desire to do something.
We remember things better when they are attached to a picture, 65% better to be exact.
The left side of your brain, as you know, houses the critique, who is forever trying to keep you safe from harm, make sure you don't do anything dangerous or stupid.
Using your imagination activates the right side of your brain, which makes you creative and filled with possibilities.
You get the most power when you paint your own picture. You need to soak it in. You have to fill it with colour. You have to fill it with emotion. You have to get inside of it, as if you're on the inside looking out.
All you have to do is look at the picture, and close your eyes. This allows the brain to recycle whatever it sees, and reconstruct it, add to it everything you ever seen, heard, experienced or fantasized about. And then it will serve you up with the best possible solution. 
What's the boldest thing you can do to get from where you are to where you want to be? 
See it.  Believe it.  Act on it.

Start drawing your future now!
