The Bravohood

This is something special that DJ and I worked on for you guys. This 'Vision Building' post is the first of a four part series that DJ and I are doing for special themes this month. viewtopic.php?f=18&t=8461

Have your vision drafted by Thursday and post it at 6pm pst so that DJ and I can work with you on building it/making it more solid.



With building your Vision:

Knowing what we want is so important in all aspects of our lives. When we are clear and concrete about what we want, it enables us to be more conscious about getting it.

Articulating a vision enables us to plan in the present more effectively and communicate our specific interests and needs to others.

It is a movie picture snapshot of what you want your life to look like at a specific point in time. In your vision, you want express your deepest desires in your life concretely as a photograph – it should be as concrete and detailed as possible.

Your vision includes all aspects of your life: career, family, friends, community, health & fitness, personal qualities, appearance, where you live, what you own, what you do for fun, volunteer activity, how much you make, what investments you have etc.

An important detail I want to make here is how does your vision make you feel? Does it inspire you? Does it compel you to move on your vision? If not, I would ask, what will?

Your vision is continually being updated and fine-tuned so dream as big as you want. It can be for any time frame you want (3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, etc).


Give yourself sometime this week to write your vision in an uninterrupted space. Have some music on if it helps.

Write your vision. Post it on our live coaching thread on Thursday Oct 3: 6pm pst. DJ and I will help you with building up your vision.

I satrted doing this and came out to like 700 words.. fuck me

do you want me to condense that down? or is more detail better?

Ice and DJ,

Thank you both for taking the time to do this. My vision is below.

One year from now, I see myself living in New York City. I'm working in the field that I am currently in, but with a different company.

I'm taking up new hobbies or further developing my skills in current ones. I also have about 10 unread books that I've been meaning to get to that i can have been read within one year.

When I look at my personality in one year, I view myself to be a better version of what I am now - naturally introverted, but someone who an turn my energy level up when I need to because I'm completely comfortable in my personality.

My social life is booming. I easily make new friends because I've done so much interesting stuff in life (dance classes, martial arts/self defense, cooking and wine tasting classes, improv acting, plane flying, traveled to various countries in Europe and South/central America, read lots of books on social and behavioral psychology theories, anything else new I decide to try) that I can relate to and make a connection with anyone. I have a diverse group of friends (business men/women, hipsters, non-profit workers, musicians/artists, etc.) because I enjoy various parts of how each live their life.

In regard to women, I'm casually dating 2-4 girls at a time because within one year my game is solid. I know I can walk into a bar and run solid game (properly opening, transitioning to DHVs and telling them in a way that gets girls excited, building comfort, and closing, whether it be an snl or on a future date). Because I now have multiple girls in my life (and truly have that "I am the prize" feeling), when I go out, I push myself further because I am 100% outcome independent.

Overall, everyday I wake up one year from now, I'm proud of what I've accomplished this far in life in terms of my career an my personal experiences. Most importantly, I'm proud of the relationships that I've built with God, family, friends, and women.

Awesome job so far. Ice & I will break these down shortly.

It's a GREAT idea to write your vision in the present tense. Not "I will be fucking a hot girl two years from now" but "I am fucking a hot girl now" even if you're not currently doing so. This trains your brain to live the life that you want so it's not simply a future pipe dream, but a reality that you expect to come to fruition. So great job there, Saber.
