If someone sees you sitting still in your office staring at nothing, you could be dozing or you could be using a tool that will transform your business or life in a profound way; your imagination.
Imagination takes us out of what is and into a realm of what could be. It is the preview of coming attractions. It is the first tool to use on a creative journey.
Using your imagination to try out different scenarios takes a lot less time and is less expensive than actually trying each alternative. It can leapfrog you results way ahead of where you are now. It can be fun, and stimulating.
“To imagine the unimaginable is the highest use of the imagination.” – Cynthia Ozick
Using your imagination makes new things possible for you. Because if you don’t think a thing first, you cannot do it. All action is preceded by thought, and thinking things that don’t exist yet or haven’t happened yet is to imagine.
How would you rate your use of your own imagination in your life?
What problems do you need to solve? What adventures could call?
What should you imagine now?
Great thought! I just got back from a family vaca at Disney World, talk about imagination!, look where it got Walt and his people. Its almost unimaginable, lol.
Jeff Russell is an amazing guy! He is always willing to help, he is extremely wise, and he gives great advice.
Thank you for the shout out Larry. I am thankful for you too! Also, Thank you Jim Patton for the kind words. I’ve never really credited myself for having a great imagination. In fact, because of the way I grew up, during my impressionable years with the constant uproar, it took me a very long time to tap into my imagination. I concentrate on it and often confuse imagination for deep thinking. It’s easy to confuse the two! Call it what you want, that whatever it is, leads to a better result when time is used wisely. Super proud to be a part of this thing with you all!
