Why vision boards do not work, and this does. A psychologist at NYU named Gabriele Oettingen spent twenty years on one question: what happens when people picture their best future? She tested dieters, job seekers, patients and students, and the answer came back the same every time. The more clearly you picture the good ending, the less you do to get there. Your brain treats the daydream a bit like the real thing. It gets fed, so you stop chasing.
The fix is not to stop picturing it. The fix is to not stop there. You picture it, then you name the exact thing that is going to get in your way, then you decide in advance what you will do when it shows up. That is the whole structure, and it is what this workbook walks you through. Naming your intention and then acting on it even when your nafs says no is niyyah and mujahadah. The research arrived at the same place much later.
