Mohammad Ali was probably the greatest boxer ever, but did
you know that his pre-fight predictions were uncannily accurate, somewhere
around 80% in fact. How did he do it?
In an interview, Ali described his preparations. Ali would research the opponent and devise a
strategy to beat him. Once the strategy
had been developed, Ali would go to bed and dream the fight exactly to his
strategy. Once he had ‘seen’ the fight
play out in his dream, he’d go to the gym and train for the dream.
That’s a powerful story and one that demonstrates the
importance of having a clearly articulated dream or vision. Such was the
strength of Ali’s vision that more often than not ,it came to fruition exactly
as he had seen and planned it.
Along with his powerful vision, Ali was a very positive
thinker. Everything he said, thought and
did affirmed his deeply held beliefs. He
was once quoted as saying “It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to
belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to
happen.”
Dream yourself to the success your heart desires.
