Group 1 was instructed to visualize the process of studying for an exam, Group 2 visualized the outcome of the exam, and Group 3 received no instructions. Group 1 started studying earlier and scored higher on the exam than both Group 2 and the control Group 3. The document then discusses envisioning goals by accessing three distinct mental states - the Dreamer, who imagines unlimited possibilities; the Realist, who develops a practical plan; and the Critic, who identifies flaws. It provides steps to anchor each state and transition between them to iteratively develop and refine a business vision.

- 4. 1. Create three distinct states and anchor them: Observer, Dreamer, Realist, Critic a. Think of a time you were able to creatively dream up or fantasize new ideas without any inhibitions; fully relive that experience. What do you see/hear/feel? What symbol or color can you use to anchor this feeling? Then, access an observer state where you are aware of your surroundings. b. Identify a time you were able to think very realistically and devise a speci鍖c plan to put an idea e鍖ectively into action; Relive that experience. What symbol or color can you use to anchor this feeling? Then, access an observer state where you are aware of your surroundings. c. Think of a time you were able to constructively criticize an plan - that is, to o鍖er positive and constructive criticism as well as to 鍖nd problems.Make sure the location is far enough away from the others that it doesnt interfere. Relive that experience. Anchor this feeling with a symbol or color. 2. Step into the Dreamer State -- Fully access the dreamer state (use the color or symbol and physiology) and allow yourself to have a childlike innocence of what could be. A year from now, what would you like your business to look like? What do you see, hear, feel? 3. Step into the Realist -- What steps and stages do you need to get you to where you want to be? 4. Step into the Critic -- Whats missing in the dream or in the steps and stages? What needs to be added and re鍖ned? 5. Repeat steps 2,3 and 4 until all roles are aligned. The next step is to write down your journey to your vision in present tense.
