Therapeutic visualization can be forward looking or backward re-storying. In looking forward, we can imagine and experience the goal or progress toward the goal. For example, a year from now, I will be advanced in my career, or have 8 more friends, or have a better relationship with a, b or c. If you can see yourself there, you can be there.
In backward re-storying, we may experience an event in a less traumatic or more positive frame of mind, or identify some positive aspect of the experience or silverlining.

Kennan DeWitt, visualization
Friends: If you can see it, you can do it. If you can imagine yourself being somewhere, doing something, reaching a goal, short or long term, then you can arrive there. Close your eyes......, now imagine being there....., look around....., how does it feel?...., who else might be there?....., what are your thoughts?, what else are you experiencing? Now, open your eyes and ask, what do I have to do today, right now, to start in that direction?
