regarding his appearance. The mental image you formed in your mind was visualization by curiosity.

Another example of visualization by curiosity: You see a crowd of people in the street. Your curiosity is aroused and you visualize a fight or a smash-up or something of the sort.

While at work, you receive a phone call from your wife that your only son is hurt in an accident. You rush home in your car. Your speed endangers your own life and the lives of others. Your worry causes you to visualize your only son maimed for life or maybe dying. This kind of visualization, caused by worry, may have serious reaction due to the mental strain it causes. You should guard against such imaging.

Should you be held up by a robber at the point of a gun, you would probadly hand over your cash without a struggle. Why? Out of fear. You fear the gun may go off and you see yourself shot, bleeding from your wounds. Visualization out of fear. Visualization through worry and fear is negative, and highly destructive thinking may end up in hysterics, insanity, or worse.

When you read a story you unconsciously visualize the action of the story. Years later you are able to relate the story, not as you read but as you pictured it. This kind of visualization I call induced visualization. The good derived from it depends on the kind of book or magazine you read. Emotionally unstable minds are too easily influenced, their life shaped by what they read. Many a young man has turned criminal because of this induced visualization of the wrong kind. On the other hand if one chooses books dealing with theories or principles that are constructive and educational, he is building up a solid foundation for the future.

Mental pictures are impressed upon the mind and remain there for years to come. There are countless kinds of induced visualization. The picture impressed upon the mind when one sees a motion picture is one type.

Thought pictures make the model, a formless substance. To visualize wrongly may result in disaster.
