Dr Maxwell Maltz shared this fascinating observation back in the early sixties when he wrote Psycho-Cybernetics.

Interestingly, America's Greatest Prosperity Teacher Bob Proctor had reinforced Dr Maltz's point:

"You don't have to know how to get it. You just have to know that you can."

He added:

"Want is the only prerequisite to get what you want. Do you really want it?"

Bob's partner, Sandy Gallagher, CEO of the Proctor Gallagher Institute, went on to create a 32 minute video on YouTube, entitled Visioneering.

She shared her brilliant insights on the art of Visioneering, including a checklist which you can even download.

For the corporate and business world, author-filmmaker-futurist Joel Arthur Barker had introduced his half-hour long Power of Vision video, which demonstrated that "having a positive vision of the future is the most forceful motivater for change and success".

In a nut shell, it's fair to say, Dr Maltz was far ahead of his time.
