On the surface, that advice seems to make sense.
Keep your eyes on the prize and youll stay motivated to get there.
But, visualizing yourself achieving the things you want might not be the most effective.
Verywell / Julie Bang
Putting something up on your vision board could possibly reduce your chances of success.
Thats not to say visualization cant be a great tool.
But only if you use it the right way.
