This world is but a canvas to our imaginations.
Henry David  Thoreau

Pick up a thread and start at the beginning. The thought you hold in your head with desire, the vision inspired by your imagination, and the passion from your heart is the beginning of your path. It’s the place to begin.

Get Peaceful...
Now get a white board from the Office Supply and a  stack of magazines, light a candle, play your favorite music and cut and paste everything that has appeal for you.  Snip  pictures from the magazines of anything and everything that relates to your  vision, your ideal and your passionate feelings. Anything that gives you that  ‘urge,' makes your eyes sparkle, paste it on the board.  Especially, if you turn the page and in living color is something that makes your gut hurt in longing and you say, 'oh, if only I could do THAT,' - cut it from the magazine and paste it on your board.  

Put Joy of Living in it...
Cut out quotations or inspirational messages and paste them on the top,  the bottom, in a circular pattern along the sides.  The  design is your own architectural wonder. Have fun, be creative. Now right in the center place a picture of your head when you are happy and smiling. You might want to take a marker pen and draw a bubble next to your face, like they do in the cartoons - "I can!" or "I love my new career!" "My Dreams come true!!!" (This is like planting a seed in the dark rich soil underground so it is for your eyes only)

Give Your Mind Something To Do While You Snooze...
Put it where you can see it often - the best is by your bed when you first wake up and just before you go to sleep. It influences your subconscious and gives it your intention of what you want. Your subconscious is very happy to go to work on something you really want. 

This is where you begin to figure out what you want, and  what your  heart is trying to communicate to your brain. It's the way you  begin to see possibilitities - greater than you can even imagine at this point - and learn how to dream again.  It’s a great beginning, start  there.
