will give you a steady flow of energy, enthusiasm, and motivation
that will drive you toward your goals.
The way you activate this process and unleash all your mental
powers is by continually idealizing, verbalizing, visualizing, and es-
pecially emotionalizing.

DREAMS COME TRUE
The fifth element in this five-step power process is 
realization
, to ac-
tually achieve your goals and to have your wishes come true.
This is the most important part of the process. But you must be
aware that every goal takes a certain amount of time to materialize.
Some goals can be achieved quickly. Some require weeks and even
months of patient, steady work. Others are long-term goals, requir-
ing several years to bring to fruition. Your attitude toward the time
required for goal attainment has a major impact on whether and
when you accomplish them.
In the realization phase, after you have practiced the first four
steps, you simply relax and let go of the process. You allow your
goal to appear in its own time. Exactly the things that you want
and need will come to you at exactly the time that you are ready
for them.
Successful people eventually develop an attitude of calm, confi-
dent expectation. They are never rushed or hurried. They are re-
laxed and confident, and they absolutely believe that everything is
conspiring to bring them exactly what they want, at exactly the right
time for them. This must be your attitude as well.
