原本智 | 视觉化建立最佳蓝图

2017-04-27 Elisa 原本本源


正如上一期已经提到过,视觉化不仅将有助于营造未来事件的的即视感,更也有助于坚定你对最佳蓝图的信念,并由此增加实现最佳蓝图的机会。

那么


 

“视觉化”究竟是什么呢?


根据维基百科,视觉化是任何创建图像,图表或动画来传达消息的技术。


自从进入具有创造性的初期,人类便一直将视觉图像做可视化视作传达抽象和具体思想的有效方法。 有史可鉴,包括洞穴绘画,埃及象形文字,希腊几何和达芬奇的革命性的,用于工程和科学目的技术绘图方法等诸多例证。


视觉化演进至今已在科学,教育,工程(例如产品可视化),互动多媒体,医学等领域获得不断扩展应用。典型的视觉化应用可见于电脑绘图【注1】领域。动画的发展也有力推动了视觉化的发展。


【注1】:电脑绘图的发明被认为是文艺复时期中点透视绘图发明后,视觉化发展历程中最重要的发展。


 

为什么有效?


使用大脑图像的研究显示,可视化的工作是基于大脑中的神经元,那些可利用电子作用激活以传递信息的细胞,把图像阐述的与现实生活中的行动相当。当我们视觉化一个行为,大脑产生一个脉冲,告诉我们的神经元“执行”运动。由此创造了一个新的神经通路 - 大脑中的细胞群共同创造记忆或创造学习到的行为 - 使我们的身体以一种与我们想象一致的方式行动。所有这些都发生在没有实际执行身体活动的状况下,却又实现类似的结果。


如果生物学上的解释太复杂,那么,从心理学角度可作如下分析:


潜意识接受你经常重复的想法。当潜意识接受这些想法时,它会相应改变你的心态以及你的习惯和行为。由此,你将会有机会接触到新人、新事和新情况。




思想具有创造力,



塑造你的生活,



并吸引你的想法。



脑海中从一个念头转换到另一个。如果念头足够强壮,可以被人们无意间拾起,并处于能够帮助你实现你的愿望和目标的位置上。


思想,尤其是一个专注的思想,是能量,饱含着情感的能量。
思想改变了我们周围能量的平衡,并带来跟随它们变化的环境变化。


 

如何运用视觉化的方法建立最佳蓝图?


按照运用对象不同,视觉化大体分为两种方式,并可将这两种方法适用于不同的目的。但为了实现效果最大化,它们应当一起使用。

 


第一种方法是将结果视觉化,包括设想自己实现最佳蓝图后的感受。 为此,你需要运用所有感官构建心中最佳蓝图的详细图像。


 


以生活中的小目标为例。如果你的目标是完成你的第一次上马,那么你可以想象自己在期望的时间节点跨过终点线。 尽可能长时间在心里持续展示那幅画面。 最后通过终点线的时候,看看计时器,感受凉爽的微风轻拂发热的身体,那种感觉是怎样的? 当你完成你的第一次马拉松,谁在终点迎接你? 你的家人? 朋友? 还是其他赛跑者? 想象一下你将体会到的兴奋、满足、疲劳和成就感...


有些人觉得记录下他们的最佳蓝图是有效的,由此,需要尽可能多的细节,并通过运用可视化勾勒出清晰的画面。它可以是手绘的图片,照片或图表。使用怎样的媒体并不紧要,重要的是它能帮助你在心里创造一个生动的形象并让你保持动力。

 


第二种方法是将过程视觉化。它涉及设想实现你渴望的最佳蓝图所需的每个行动。专注于完成您为实现最佳蓝图所需的每个步骤,而不是宏观蓝图。


 


让我们回到上面那个马拉松的例子:赛前,想象你自己跑得很好 - 腿像抽水机那样飞速运转,手臂放松,呼吸控制得当。在你的脑海里,将整个赛程分成几个部分,并想象你将在每个阶段如何进展,考虑下你的步伐、步态和步频长短。想象一下,当你来到“临界点”时,身体来到想要停止赛跑的节点,你的身体感觉到什么?更重要的是,你必须做点什么才能冲出重围。


你可能永远不会,也没有必要跑马拉松。然而,你可以“同理适用” 于任何目标的实现,包括成就那个对你自己而言最好不过的自己- 脑海中创造一个成功后的生动形象,设想你必须在整个过程中的每一步你必须做的,像一个赛跑者突破“临界点”那样,在遭遇障碍或挫折时以积极的心理意象保持专注与自我激励。


视觉化可以是一个令人难以置信的,强大而温和的工具来帮助您通过抵抗。如果正确使用,这个过程可以帮助你排除负面的振动,并移除或消除它们。


同时,视觉化也不是万能的,它不能保证必然成功,也不能取代努力工作与实践。 当它与勤奋的努力和强大的支持网络相结合,视觉化将是一个实现积极的行为变化和创造你所渴望的生活的强有力的方式。


 

最后,但愿以下这些小贴士能帮助您入门:


1

           把视觉化变成一次全身心的体验。


你看到了什么? 

听到什么? 

闻起来怎样? 

感觉怎样? 

让五感统统参与其中。 


2

     如果视觉化运用有困难,
          那么请尝试通过多媒体的帮助。


用搜索引擎查找想要的图片。如果你乐意,把它打印并粘贴到愿望板上。 找到能激励你的歌曲,帮助你进入白日梦。在高速公路上开车时,你会播放怎样的歌曲? 切记:光看图片是不够的。你必须进入幻想,真的把这些图片在你的脑海里放映,以便确认是否隐藏着任何冲突的震动。


3

        玩得开心! 


不必强迫自己一本正经遵循严格的计划练习视觉化的运用;像你小时候那样玩。当你感觉合适的时候,当你准备好找些乐子的时候尝试去玩。 “作用”不在视觉化,而在于注意力集中到视觉化引领你去到的位置。




花点时间奏一支幻想曲。如果你遇见那个再好不过的自己,你的生活会真的变成什么样子?持续播映,直到你可以自如控制整个视觉化,直到你对你正经历的一切感觉真的好,直到感觉完完全全正确。当它成为一个游戏,当你可以轻松地,毫无冲突地看到自己所想,你想要的最佳蓝图已然建立了稳固的根基。



As discussed last time, visualization will keep you tethered to firm your belief on your optimized blueprint and increase your chances of achieving it. The power of visualization is available to all people.


So

 What is visualization?

Refer to Wikipedia, visualization is any technique for creating images, diagrams, or animations to communicate a message. Visualization through visual imagery has been an effective way to communicate both abstract and concrete ideas since the dawn of humanity ingenuity. Examples from history include cave paintings, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Greek geometry, and Leonardo da Vinci's revolutionary methods of technical drawing for engineering and scientific purposes.


Visualization today has ever-expanding applications in science, education, engineering (e.g., product visualization), interactive multimedia, medicine, etc. Typical of a visualization application is the field of computer graphics[Note1]. The development of animation also helped advance visualization.


[Note1]: The invention of computer graphics may be the most important development in visualization since the invention of central perspective in the Renaissance period.


  Why Visualization Works?


According to research using brain imagery, visualization works because neurons in our brains, those electrically excitable cells that transmit information, interpret imagery as equivalent to a real-life action. When we visualize an act, the brain generates an impulse that tells our neurons to “perform” the movement. This creates a new neural pathway — clusters of cells in our brain that work together to create memories or learned behaviors — that primes our body to act in a way consistent to what we imagined. All of this occurs without actually performing the physical activity, yet it achieves a similar result.


If you think above analysis from biological prospective looked too complicated, we might put down the lens and think it from a more psychological way:


The subconscious mind accepts the thoughts that you often repeat. When it accepts them, it changes your mindset accordingly, as well as your habits and actions. This brings you into contact with new people, situations and circumstances.



Thoughts are endowed with a creative power that molds your life, and attracts what you think about.



Thoughts travel from one mind to another, and if they are strong enough, they can be unconsciously picked up by people, who are in a position to help you achieve your desires and goals.


Thought is energy, especially a focused thought, soaked with emotional energy. Thoughts change the balance of energy around us, and bring changes to the environment in accordance with them.


Most people think and repeat certain thoughts quite often. They focus their thoughts on their current environment and situation, and therefore, create and recreate the same sort of events and circumstances.


 How to use visualization for root the optimized blueprint?


According to different subjects, there are two types of visualization, each of which serves a distinct purpose, but for greatest effect, they should be used together. 

 

The first method is outcome visualization, involves envisioning yourself achieving your optimized blueprint or just a goal. To do this, create a detailed mental image of the desired outcome using all of your senses.

 


Let’s take an example and make it easier for understanding. Let’s say, your optimized blueprint is to run your first race in Shanghai International Marathon, visualize yourself crossing the finish tape in the time you desire. Hold that mental image as long as possible. What does it feel like to pass under the finishing banner, looking at stopwatch, the cool air flowing through your overheated body? Who is there to greet you as you finish? Your family? Friends? Other runners? Imagine the excitement, satisfaction, fatigue and sense of achievement you will experience...


Some people find it useful to write their goal down, and then, in as much detail as possible, translate it into a visual representation. It could be a hand-drawn picture, a photograph or a diagram. The media doesn’t matter, just as long as it helps you create a vivid mental image and stay motivated.

 

The second method of visualization is process visualization. It involves envisioning each of the actions necessary to achieve the blueprint you desire. Focus on completing each of the steps you need to achieve your goal, but not on the overall goal itself.

 


Back to the marathon example: Before the race, visualize yourself running well — legs pumping like pistons, arms relaxed, breathing controlled. In your mind, break the course into sections and visualize how you will run each part, thinking about your pace, gait and split time. Imagine what it will feel like when you hit “the critical point,” that point in the race where your body wants to stop, and more importantly, what you must do to break through it.


You may never, no necessity either, run a marathon. However, you can use the same principles to achieve any goal — create a vivid mental picture of yourself succeeding, envision what you must do during each step of the process and, like a runner breaking through “the critical point,” use positive mental imagery to stay focused and self-motivated when you experience obstacles or setbacks.


Visualization is not omnipotent and success is not guaranteed as inevitable outcome. Visualization also cannot replace hard work and practice. When combined with diligent effort and a strong support network, it is a powerful way to achieve positive, behavioral change and create the life you desire.


 A few more tips below might help you get started:



1

Make it a full body experience. 


What do you see? What do you hear? How does it smell? How does it feel? Get all of your senses involved.


2

If you have trouble visualizing, get some multi-media help. 


Find pictures on the internet of the things you want, print them and paste them on a vision board if you like. Find songs that inspire you and help you get into the daydream. What song would you play while driving your new car down the freeway? But remember that just looking at pictures is not enough. You have to get into the fantasy, really play it out in your mind in order to see if you harbor any conflicting vibrations.


3

Have fun! 


Don't force yourself to visualize on some strict schedule. Do it as you would when you were a child. Do it when it feels right when you're ready to have some fun with it. The "work" is not in the visualizing, it's in paying attention to where that visualization takes you.



Take time out of your day to play a fantasia. What would your life really be like if you become the best version of you? Play until you can control the entire visualization, until you feel really good about everything you're experiencing, until it feels completely and totally RIGHT. And when it becomes a game, when you can easily see yourself having what you desire with no conflicting thoughts, a solid foundation of optimized blueprint as you want has already set.
