Una andrógina entre los estereotipos y la transgresión

Would It Win The Golden Globe?

I'm about to share with you a technique that I believe is much more powerful and effective than visualization.

I call it "Writing Your Movie"

You know, most people don't actively write their movies. They'd rather stand on the sidelines and watch other people run the show. They are never the lead-actors of their own movie and maybe, just maybe they make a cameo appearance but only give

themselves a line or two.

I find that rather sad and I want to tell you that if this is how you've been leading your lives, I advise you to please, please, please take control of the wheel again.

And how you can easily do that is to forget the past. As Anthony Robbins always says "The past does not equal the future!" You are who you are right now, and you're where you are today because of what you did in the past.

That past has NO BEARINGS on your future. You manifested the things in your life today, desirable or undesirable, because your dominant thoughts were on them.

To get what you want in the future, you have to simply plant the seed now by controlling your dominant thoughts and focusing on what you want.

And to do that, you simply have to write the script to the remaining scenes of your movie now, before it is projected on the screen.

Makes sense? Great, let's get to it!

Today you will be writing a script to the scene where you are already enjoying what you asked for in Step 2.

A script has 3 very important elements to it. 1) Setting

2) Dialogue

3) Stage Directions

Let's look at an example from the play "Misery" by Simon Moore where I'm supposed to play the character Paul:

ACT 1

Winter

SCENE 1

Twenty-sixth Annual Romantic Fiction Awards.

A microphone stands down stage; a giant cut-out of a romantic novel "Misery's Child, by Paul Sheldon" behind it. The cover shows a nineteenth century heroine with windswept hair, voluptuous but vulnerable, in the arms of a dashing young hero. Behind them is another, older man, grey haired but vigorous and attractive.

There is huge applause as Paul, an attractive middle-aged man, stands in front of the microphone, hugging a large bronze award in the shape of a rose. He is wearing an expensive suit, and has a relaxed, confident manner: this is not the first time he's won an award. He has a little index card with notes on, which he sneaks a look at from time to time.

Flashbulbs are going off all the time.

Paul Thank you, thank you for this… Thank you.

I want to dedicate this, this wonderful award, to you ladies. And maybe a few of your husbands, if they're honest enough to admit they read me too. When I sit down to write a book, you're the people I do it for. It's as simple as that. You know, it's become very

fashionable to ridicule romantic fiction. But in this world of… of chaos, and violence, I don't think we can have too much romance, do you?

Applause. He lifts the statuette, kisses it.

The question that everyone always asks writers is "Where do you get all your ideas from?" Everywhere I go, I get the same question. If I ever get to Heaven, St Peter's going to stop me at the gates and say "Hey Paul, where do you get all the ideas from?" Well, ten years ago, when I got the biggest idea of my life, I ran away to a little hotel in Colorado, and wrote all winter, and the results was the first of the Misery novels. When I leave here today, I'm going to go to that same hotel, and no, ladies, (he smiles) I'm not telling you where it is, and I'm going to sit in the same room, and write on the same hotel typewriter. And the day I finish I'll smoke a single cigarette and drink a bottle of Dorn Peringon, just as I've done every year, and you'll have the new Paul Sheldon. I just hope you like it as much as the others. Thank you truly, and I'll see you when the snow melts!

Applause. He starts to go and then stops

I forgot the whole point of what I was going to say! Ideas! I was going to tell you where ideas come from. Ten years ago, halfway between my first divorce and my second divorce…

…I was on a plane from Munich to Denver for a sales conference, and I was very depressed. There was a woman next to me reading a newspaper, and I was reading over her shoulder, like you do. There was a small piece about tourists stranded in the Bahamas because of some airport strike, and the headline was "Misery in Paradise". And I became fixated by that headline. I was not a writer until that exact moment. I never went to the sales conference, I resigned from my job. Because I'd had an idea that wouldn't go away. And the idea was: what if Misery was a person?

The audience applauds wildly. Paul soaks it up.

Now you know why I love to act? I get to become a best-selling author!

All right, do you now understand why I prefer scripts to visualization? You can feel yourself being there, right in the moment as every one of your senses are involved.

Oh by the way, I just picked up this script out of the many from the pile and it seems to suit the purpose of this explanation perfectly! Must be the Law of Attraction at work *winks*

The idea here is to replicate the detail in this script so that nothing is left to the

imagination, thus allowing you to create every single aspect of the experience you want to have in the future.

You can use the above script as a template if it's suitable, or find another one at the library or simply write one of your own – but remember, leave nothing to the imagination.

Then, I want you to memorise the script or record yourself saying it with full emotion and conviction ( I know that sounds silly but that's how I memorise my scripts) and then replay it to yourself as often as you can.

I know this chapter's a bit lengthy but just hold on a bit more…

Remember at the beginning of this section, I told you about "The Method"?

Jack Canfield in his book, "The Success Principles" has a similar principle called "Acting As If".

The concept is very simple. If you already have what you desire, how would you talk, walk, speak and do everything else?

To integrate this principle with "Writing Your Movie", I would think of my script as something that has already happened, and then act as if I've got that achievement under my belt and voila, I'm filled with JOY and GRATTITUDE!

P.S. Remember at the beginning, I told you that some parts of the characters I play will always stay with me? Imagine the power of being able to write a script of who you want to become, first living it in your mind and then outside it.

thumb. No matter how arduous or impossible the road to success may be, each and every one of them never had a doubt in their minds that they would come up tops. They

EXPECTED success, and so will you!

P.P.P.S . Oh yes, I forgot to mention something. HAVE FUN WITH THIS PROCESS! Ask yourself this, "If this was a script to a real movie, and knowing that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE in movies, who do I want to be?"

I've always wanted to be Clark Kent from Smallville…
