Sight and insight are two different things.

Sight is what you see ahead.

Insight is what you see inside.

Both need to be approached in a different way.

Visualization and actualization.

Visualization is often made fun of as a kind of new age magic or placebo. You can't blame those who blame about that,... they have most likely given up on their wish at the very beginning.

Visualization is actually much more significant than some mumbo jumbo internet bs...

The actual power behind our imagination goes back to 3000 bc.

In Ancient Egypt the practice of Heka made people call on the gods to make their wish come true.

Some even dare to say visualization is as old as stone.

The Emerald Tablets - as above so below.

Later in India 1500 bc. the Sankalpa is a mental resolve between will, focus and the cosmic order.

Note

Cosmic order

Many past (and current) civilisations believed planetary alignment held significant power to influence future outcome.

8 things you need to control in order to make your wish come true.

The magic formula

Visualize

You need to be able to see it in your mind's eye.

That's always the first step to make anything possible.

Realize

You need to understand where you are in order to know where to go.

Admit the truth, it will set you free.

Actualize

You need to start turning ideas into plans. 

Measuring and processing are major factors of growth

Problems are challenges that lead to opportunities.

Focus

You need to stay ahead of distractions by protecting your mind.

You partially evolve into what you pay attention to.

If the why is powerful, the how becomes easy.

Motivation

You start to make progress when you program your mind.

Balance

Your body should be able to keep up with your mind.
