Einstein was not just a brilliant theoretical physicist. He was that, but he was also a brilliant man, a thinker that deeply understood creativity and the power of imagination. The quote in the graphic above is proof of it.
According to Merriam Webster, imagination is “the act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses or never before wholly perceived in reality.”
Your imagination is the key to the future that only you can see.
It doesn’t matter that nobody else sees the possibilities that you see. How could they see it? It’s YOUR imagination. It’s YOUR dream for what the future holds. It’s YOUR preview of life’s coming attractions, shown on a screen that only you can see.
The fun part is figuring out how to make it real so others can see it too. Fun and hard. That’s why they call it work.
It might be time to return to imagining and dreaming again. Your future depends on it.
Ours might, too.
What’s in your imagination?
What do you see that we can’t see?
Work – like at the moment in order to get what I have in my imagination out, I am having to home my skills with some power tools – the “wince” on my hubby’s face is also in the way…..:>
Kudos for attempting challenging projects, Nancy!
I imagine our lives being back to “normal” again since the death of our daughter in June. Continuing to raise her children, our grandchildren and seeing them grow not only physically but grow in their love for God. My daughter wrote each of them a note one time and in the little note she put, “I wonder what great things God has planned for you” She was imagining all these wonderful things. Now, I want to pick up where she left off and imagine all the wonderful things he has planned for them……. And not only for them but for my grown son and my other grown daughter, for my husband and I, for my church….
Cindy, you and Ron are inspiring. Your faith is inspiring. Your imagination for the future of your family is inspiring. Bless you.
