In NLP trainings we often invite participants to imagine future events as a kind of mental rehearsal.
We may have them close their eyes and imagine future events as though they were happening now. This gives the participant a chance to have a mental run through of the event before the event occurs in reality.
As you probably know mental rehearsal is very helpful in acquiring skills and expertise.
Here is a fine example of some who is very good, perhaps much too good, at this kind of mental rehearsal.
