The importance of Imagination

The greatest asset in your life is- Imagination. Without it, you would be like a homeless person sitting on the pavement on a rainy day, like a dying flower without water and the world without sunshine.

Imagination helps you to make plans for the future, make things better in your present life and sometimes helps you avoid the bad things.

As a teenager I spent most of my time imagining. I used to imagine my future family, how I will look when I get older, how someone will react to something I will say… Basically everything in my life was powered by my imagination, it was like a fire that never stopped burning. But when I got older and few heart breaks later the fire stopped burning. It felt like someone poured water over it. The fire kept trying to light up again, but the winds got in the way.

What I had then, I realise now was a Gift. A gift us adults can never get back. And the little bit of the imagination we have left, we don’t usually appreciate, take it for granted and think that only children have the ticken to the imagination world.

Imagination

Makes your ideas more creative- it’s true it really does. Imagine, you are trying to draw something… as you start to draw you start getting all those ideas and guess what starts happening- You start to imagine. This helps you draw something unique, a drawing no one will ever draw again.

Helps you plan your future– if there was no imagination at all, you wouldn’t know or have the image of your future. It helps us imagine the people we will meet during our stay on this earth, the things we want or will see, the things we will say or what will happen. We would be in this dark, boring, sad and depressing place.

Free you from the limiting reality we live in– the world we live in has so many rules and boundaries. But in your imaginary world, it’s only you and the connection you have with the deeper inner you. It can change your mood, give you positive thoughts and make you that tiny bit more enthusiastic about life.

Give you hope– without imagination, there would be no hope. A hope to achieve everything you want either now or when the time is right. Like a drug addict- they imagine themselves sober, they hope that one day that will happen. This pushes them to do something to improve, dream and plan.

The better we are able to connect with the positive thoughts of our imagination, the greater the chance that we’ll be able to live a happy and productive life and experience the level of success that we dream of.

Albert Einstein says:

“Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.”

“True sign of inteligence is not knowledge, but IMAGINATION”

“Imagination is everything. It is a preview of life’s coming attractions.”
