See yourself right now somewhere in this positive future in your minds eye and reflect on the things you did that enabled you to get there. See yourself doing some of those things …
Maybe it’s putting your energy into learning new skills or maybe it’s how you allow yourself to connect with positive others. Notice what it feels like when you imagine doing these positive things.
