I have been having issues trying to visualize myself emersed in large success and I am wondering if this has to do with the lack of realistic positivity and practicality or too many negative thoughts that this may be too of a big accomplishment and in turn it becoming the predominant thought and perhaps living that thought.

Try this visualize yourself succeeding in small goals,which you can easily achieve.
Then try little medium size goal,then big goals.
It Step by step process.
You have trouble visualizing big success if start to visualize large before small.

In other words, enjoy the process and journey as it happens. I need to be more grateful for what I have achieved and worry less about what I have not by comparing to others. It is always the comparison and the lack of physically seeing the results that leads to thinking about negative side of it.

Constancy of purpose is the first principle of success.

It is critical to your success that you have a well-thought-out plan for your life and that you stick with it regardless of what others may say and the obstacles you encounter. There will always be fault-finders and those who attempt to persuade you that your goals aren’t worth the effort you put into achieving them. Those people will never go far, and they will be the first to ask for your help after you have passed them by. Virtually every successful person has considered giving up at some point in his or her struggle to reach the top. And many breakthroughs occurred soon after those same people rededicated themselves to their purpose. There is no known obstacle that cannot be overcome by a person who has constancy of purpose, a Positive Mental Attitude, and the discipline and willpower to succeed.


------------ my thoughts ---------------

[I think this is VERY important. Phrased another way:
There are obstacles/difficulties/setbacks in life and they are part of the learning and growing process. Like weights in a gym you cannot grow without them.

When you see them as helpful things you need - just as a gym with no weights isn't much good - you can start to accept and even welcome them.

Yet this is only part of the story. You also need a vision and goal and one that is consistent.

You must see the body you are working towards in your mind's eye. You must visualize it. And then keep working towards it, despite setbacks (sore muscles, closed gym plateau in your progress, negative comments from others "you can't do that your body type is wrong, you started too late, you need to take steroids, who do you think you are to aim for a perfect body, well you've been at it 4 weeks if you aren't there yet you'll never get there, and so on...")

If you persist, with a plan, with a vision, with faith in your ultimate success, intelligently and diligently, you will, (perhaps must) reach your goal.

peace, love and joy to you

20. Imagining Creates Reality | The Secret of Causation


5:11
"But whenever one state grows more stable to become our constant mood, our habitual attitude, then that habitual state defines our character, and is a true transformation."


----------------my thoughts ---

So we need to create a new habit.

Habits are created through repetition. We create a habit of a new mood, that of success, by repeatedly entering into that state in our imagination and spending time living in that imagined state/reality.

By doing so we repeatedly create and experience the mood of success - until success becomes our habitual attitude.

I suspect this is more common than many admit to.
There may be several reasons or a combination of them.

1. Feeling we deserve success/abundance.
Neville recommends "revising the past" replaying the past as it should have been played (e.g. childhood experiences around money, success, abundance etc)

2. Confusing the current external reality (a reflection of past thoughts) with our capabilities of the future we can create - which is what we can envision. This is hard to overcome because the majority of people can only conceive our current state and a small extension of it as our future state. This works against our imagining because their thoughts impinge upon us.

3. Spending enough time with the envisioning each day and invoking the correct feeling.

Bob Procter recommends a huge amount of repetition - hundreds of times a day saying
"I am now so happy and grateful .... our goal ..."

Napoleon Hill recommends that we write out our statement of success and read it morning upon awakening and evening before retiring - at a minimum.

Keep at it!

Faith

Faith is the “eternal elixir” which gives life, power, and action to the impulse of thought!

Decisions

People who fail to accumulate money, without exception, have the habit of reaching decisions, if at all, very slowly, and of changing these decisions quickly and often.

The great secret of success is a control inner conversation from fallacies of fulfilled desire. The only price you pay for success is the giving up up your former conversation, which belongs to the old man, the unsuccessful man. The time is right for many of us to take conscious charge of creating heaven on earth.

Try telling your boss about the things you like, and see how willingly he or she will help you get rid of the things you don’t like.

In recent years, great strides have been made in overcoming the traditional adversarial relationship between workers and bosses. At last we’re learning that when we focus on better serving our clients and customers, everybody wins. When you begin to focus on what’s good in your company instead of what you don’t like, you will be amazed how quickly you will have more responsibility, and soon you will be teaching your employees how to do your old job.
