There is a scientific measure to the law of attraction and it's not just quantum physics its cognitive

Why think that by acting now we can only effect the future and not the past? Why should we only have an mental movie of the past but not have an access to the future?  Paraphrase: What the %$#&^ do we know  

Neuro-engineering, social-engineering, human engineering, neuro-marketing, usability engineering (user centered design) neuro-cinematics there will be a wave. Calculating the neuro-linguistics of our personal experience is becoming an art. If you are not new to NLP you can guess the answer to 'is there more emotional intensity in a 3rd person movie or less?'

This simple cluster of neuro-linguistics i.e. 3rd person, distance, disassociation tends in most people to lower emotions. In my modeling of those who accomplish their vision I have engineered down to a few coaching steps something like attraction. At first I would reference our personal filtering style or RAS (- wiki - Reticular activating system) Given our personal filters opening wider to the things we want I propose the following as a cognitive model.

I have found that when people cross contaminate our inner past movies with our future movies or imaginations a sense of attraction begins in them. One thing I often say when coaching the technique is "let's get remembering the vision and potential of an outstanding YOU" The submodality encoding of actual, compared with desired events, (remembered compared with imagined events) will usually be different but this difference can be played into an effective change method for those things we really want to come to life, those things we really want to install into our future...ever wanted to be assured something will come to life in the future?

Through this type of cognitive strategy some of the unconscious (2000 portions of data) memories and learning can again come to life (since it may not have made it into our conscious learning before).

Transcript: I'm going to act as if you are not coaching someone else, I do have a contract with your unconscious for the present and you now have an interest in attracting something to yourself like a pure state of energized bliss etc: We open up a communication with the future super-self (like self attraction) we start a cognitive engineering process illuminating the reality of your future success increasing outcome certainty and attracting what we wanted.   

Coaching Phase 1. (5 mins): I want you to choose one specific light, icon, logo. This logo, icon or what ever you have chosen will be something to remind us this present moment. Spatially on the floor elicit what direction the future is (time line) in this future position there is a superior YOU. Now visualize having an event indicating some sort of arrival or success point (or milestone)  

Coaching Phase 2. (as much time as needed): Slow part - take all the time you need to dress up this future desirable super YOU. Walk along an imaginary future line (from the present moment) unto this super-success event. This will begin a creative aspect of your mind working  within.

Yes the obvious neuro linguistic markers are important:
-what are you wearing? what colors etc?
-what is the location?
-who else is here?
-what voices or music is in the background (if not background where are the sounds coming from?)
-what thing are you doing? reading, talking, public speaking etc

NB - often it's not our business as the coach but the semantics can play an important role e.g. if you've labored your whole life to see a charity,philanthropy or some needy group get relief or succeed in some way use that specific successful moment and be a participant in that peak experience.

Coaching Phase 3. (5 mins): I want you to stop star gazing and step onto the timeline only I know you'd be tempted to step as if 1st person into that future super-you and yes I do want you to associate into the timeline but keep walking just a littler further as if only 2-3 months after the super-success event.

Here now as you associate; reflect, remember that super-success event 2 months ago? How good has it been to live with that success for the last 2 months etc? Recall the excellence and joy you felt as you arrived at that important station in your life as a super YOU.

Coaching Phase 4. (5 mins): now go ahead and take a few steps back down your timeline into the super-success event. Feel fully and relive 1st looking through your own eyes (already having an idea as to what it is going to be like living with this success from now on) etc the joy of this occurrence, fully associating now into this wonderful time.   

Coaching Phase 5. (as much time as needed): Now continue to walk all the way slowly back to the present but obeying this safe and sensible suggestion: - "my subconscious mind can bring to my awareness needed resources, milestone steps etc so that each step that preceded the last I can now have a clear attraction map. These ordered milestones and prerequisites to give you all the learning(s), occurrences and make you aware of all the resources that make up the successful event (in reverse order).  

Coaching Phase 6. Arrive at the present moment (view you logo, icon or light) and turn around as if to clearly see the future and each event that leads to the next that eventually brings you back to that super-success event.   

Post hypnotic script: you can when arriving in the present, turn around to view the future you, look at your self in the eye and make a commitment/decision to one be there and become one with that future you and two decide you really like this future you now more and more

Summary: when we use the Submodalities of the past to encode or frame the future we create more certainty about that outcome. Additionally many of the obstacles that would have stood in our way are suddenly oops...they now are in the past right?

These and other neuro-linguistic principles like them stack the odds in favor of optimistic attraction visualization. This engineers our neurology for the future references.
