"The way to visualize properly is to visualize the bridge between where you are and where you need to go." - Mel Robbins

Mel Robbins just shattered everything you think you know about manifesting and vision boards. Picture this: you're sitting in your cramped apartment, cat litter hasn't been changed in weeks, no food in the fridge, staring at a vision board filled with mansions and Lamborghinis. Sound familiar? Mel explains why this approach is actually sabotaging your success. The crushing gap between your current reality and those big dreams isn't inspiring you—it's making you feel like a complete failure. Instead of motivating you to take action, those beautiful collages of your dream life are creating a negative spiral that keeps you stuck exactly where you are.

Here's where it gets fascinating: Mel reveals the visualization technique that actually works, and it's the complete opposite of what everyone teaches. She'll walk you through why you should be visualizing your broken shoelace at mile 17 of your marathon, getting rejected on cold calls, and missing parties to work on your dreams. Using examples from marathon training to UFC fighting, she shows how visualizing the brutal, uncomfortable parts of your journey literally rewires your nervous system to handle the real challenges when they hit. This isn't just theory—it's the difference between quitting when things get hard and pushing through to actually achieve what you want.
