Essentially, if we focus our meditation on something that we’d like to achieve, we can imagine this as already existing. We can then experience the positive feelings that are associated with this state of being. Subsequently, we can work backwards from this place in our minds; imagining each step that we must take in order to achieve the desired end. This is a proactive way to cultivate the motivation needed to achieve any goal.

Note: This is only one form of meditation. Others do exist. For instance, I believe that one would use a different meditation technique in order to relax themselves. Any feedback, comments or suggestions would greatly appreciated. I am only a novice at this concept of meditation and I hope that I have not mischaracterized here. Thank you!
