Visualizing the things you want is one of the important elements when it comes to the Law of Attraction. Some resources suggest 5-, 10-, or even 30-minutes a day of concentrated visualization of what you want for effective manifestation.
However, I know it can be hard to find the time and the place when you can do this comfortably. It's probably not that you don't have the time, but more likely there isn't a suitable time to do it when you can be by yourself undisturbed.
It could be that you have kids that won't leave you alone, or perhaps a dog that'll always try to get your attention, or simply because your significant other is up and about and you just don't feel comfortable visualizing when others are around.
For me, I have the pleasure of visualizing first thing in the morning when my wife is still upstairs (either getting ready or still asleep). I basically have the whole room to myself and early in the morning, there's hardly any traffic outside to distract me.
There is the odd time when I don't have time to do it - either it's a news-heavy trading day or I simply wake up too late and I have to play catch up.
So what is one to do when you don't have time to visualize?
You become a visualization zombie!
What do I mean by this?
Well, whenever you are doing something that doesn't require your 100% attention, just start visualizing in your mind the things you want to manifest. You don't need to close your eyes, but instead treat it more like a daydream.
You could do this while riding the train into work, while you're riding the elevator, while you walk to your favorite coffee place, even while taking a shower!
How I usually approach this is as follows - if I plan on visualizing my dream home, I just imagine what it would be like if I invited a bunch of family and friends over for a house warming party.
If I plan on visualizing my dream car, I just imagine myself driving around town at night with some great music and just cruising around town.
If I plan on visualizing money, I just visualize myself having a great day at my work and being presented with a big check for my efforts.
I'll do all that while heading into work and believe me, the commute to work gives me plenty of time to visualize all of that. The great thing about doing this is that I get the day started on a very good note, which usually sets the tone for the day.
If you think about it, I'll probably do about one hour's worth (or more) of visualizing during the day! About 5 minutes worth while in the shower, 15 minutes worth while on the subway to work, another 10 minutes while I walk into the office, then another 25 minutes while walking back to the subway and riding it back home, and probably another 5 minutes while preparing dinner.
So next time you are straining to find the time to visualize, just remember - you have more time than you think!
