“Live out of your imagination, not your history. Nothing limits achievement like small thinking; nothing expands possibilities like unleashed imagination.
One of the major difference between we humans and other primates is the ability to use our imagination to create innovative products, execute on great ideas and bring to life what we imagined. As the popular saying goes whatever your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve.
We humans are the only mammals that can see things before they happen, we can imagine things before they happen. You can not take people farther than you have gone, your imagination is a preview of things to come.
In her very inspiring 2008 Harvard University Commencement speech, Author J.K.Rowling spoke about the power of imagination:
Many prefer not to exercise their imaginations at all. They choose to remain comfortably within the bounds of their own experience, never troubling to wonder how it would feel to have been born other than they are. They can refuse to hear screams or to peer inside cages; they can close their minds and hearts to any suffering that does not touch them personally; they can refuse to know.
You might be tempted to envy people who can live that way, except that you do not think they have any fewer nightmares than you do. Choosing to live in narrow spaces leads to a form of mental being and that brings its own terrors. I think the wilfully unimaginative see more monsters. They are often more afraid. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.. You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus,. You have all the reason in the world to achieve your grandest dreams. Imagination plus innovation equals realization. We are more often frightened than hurt, and we suffer more from imagination than from reality. The man who has no imagination has no wings. If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.
Live out of your imagination, not your history. Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning. Imagination is the power of the mind over the possibilities of things. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, and live the life you have imagined. DaviImagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not – and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation – in its’ arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity it is the power that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared. Nothing limits achievement like small thinking; nothing expands possibilities like unleashed imagination. Imagination does not become great until human beings, given the courage and the strength, use it to create. Let your imagination release your imprisoned possibilities. All the breaks you need in life wait within your imagination. Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of turning mind energy into accomplishment and wealth. You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. Imagination grows by exercise, and contrary to common belief, is more powerful in the mature than in the young.Commitment unlocks the doors of imagination, allows vision, and gives us the ‘right stuff’ to turn our dreams into reality. All successful people men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose. Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will. It is important to remember that we all have magic inside us.You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration. Everything you can imagine is real. Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, and dreams are forever. Every human has four endowments – self-awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom…The power to choose, to respond, to change. It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you . Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality. out of your imagination, not your history.
Live out of your imagination, not your history. Imagination allows us to escape the predictable. It enables us to reply to the common wisdom that we cannot soar by saying, just watch!
