Christ said "Imagine the end result first"

My friends and I were meditating and and asking Christ for messages.  He pointed out that we needed stop wasting time with affirmations and start visualizing having already accomplished the goal or task.  Affirmations only put words into our heads without generating pictures or feelings.  Also, they don't generate the finished results that he wants us to feel as if we have already done it.  Hand over the voices in our heads that tell us we can't do it, not good enough, it will never work, etc.  When there are no voices left the end result will take root and start to feel very real in your head and body.  Gradually, he will then show the steps that have gotten you there.
