Visualizing my dreams
I had another call with the lovely and talented Jennifer Priest Crossworlds divx Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire release Doc Hollywood release — my personal coach — last Sunday… And, before I got on the phone to be honest, I had no idea what I was going to talk about. I’d had just finished one of the busiest times in ages for me, and I was mentally and physically exhausted.
But, in her usually adept way, Jennifer was able to ask me a few pointed questions, and then couldn’t shut me up.
It turns out I did have a lot to share.
The call turned out to be focused on my dating life; Basically, how I could determine what I want, how to visualize someone else in my life, and how to get to the next step with dating. To be honest, I was a bit clueless initially, how to visualize (and dream) someone else that I loved and trusted in my future. I kept going back to how I felt in a previous relationship, because that’s all I knew.
Although I’m completely past my last long-term relationship with someone I did love, I felt those old emotions surfacing when I tried to conjure up how I’d feel in my next, and hopefully long-lasting relationship.
Jennifer then suggested something ingenious… Create a dreamboard! We discussed what I was hoping for with someone special, and then she gave me homework: Start creating a visual representation of what I wanted. This allowed me to get past the past, so to speak, and dream something new.
Brilliant.
I’ve only had a couple of hours so far to work on it, but the process sure has gotten me excited about the possibilities! I’m looking forward to the next call with Jennifer tonight… .

Sounds interesting
A way to look forwards to a future that involves a step away from thinking about the past.
Maybe that’s something I need to do too, as when I’m looking at the women I come into contact with, I tend to look for similarities with the reasons why my last two major relationships ended up being doomed. (I.e. pondering whether getting to know person would lead to me getting used ‘n’ abused again!) That’s instead of thinking about stuff like finding excuses to be around someone else, like chilling out to music, taking in a movie, checking out a new restuarant or just having a natter.
Never know, I might be on to something with my latest blog post, although that post got sparked off by said person tapping me on the arm to say that she was moving on from this project to another (doh!). Now pondering plan that will sneak a url to Miss AB so I can pass on how she’s been a bright spark for the last little while
Good luck in finding someone special to share things with
PS I hope he’s a fan of chocolate fondue and snowshoe excursions

Very nice post. Yes, of course. People who have been blind from birth, by the way, dream in sound.
Very interesting post and what a great coach as she was able to tap into your deepest thoughts and find energy so you were able to think and dream about that certain someone who will fill a void in your life.
Blessings and hoping you find him soon,

I could do with a Jenifer myself, I’m always so negative, the glass is always half empty with me. Having said that I like to have people who are the opposite to me, so it must kind of balance out somewhere?

this is very nice thing to have someone to share your expressions and feelings. if you have such kind of person who can understand your conditions and feelings then no any other thing is better than this….
it helps to come out from past-crises of your life.
