In your meditations, embody those qualities and behaviors and allow your body,

The following is an example of questions to answer when giving sensory qualities
to an abstract goal:
When you expect greatness for yourself, you do the following:
You set the stage for you to be great. • If fulfillment had a size, what size would it be?
You stretch your thinking. • If fulfillment had a shape, what shape would it have?
You help yourself raise the bar on what you see as possible for yourself. • If fulfillment had a color, what color would it be?
You force yourself to realize that playing small is not acceptable. • If fulfillment had a sound, what sound would it have?
And you rise to the occasion.
• If fulfillment had an order, what odor would it have?
Greatness is achieved when you expect it of yourself, others, the world at large • If it had a texture, what would that be?
