“Visualization—Imagination: What you see is what you get.”

Anonymous

Reflection: I believe what this person meant is that we can not go above our physical and mental limits. Our limits though are up to as far as we push them. We got to see what we imagine and by that we get what we see. In short, we get what we imagine. So there are boundless goals to reach and strive for. We have to aim to hit our mark and by doing that we always reach goals.
