"Imagination is the true magic carpet."
Author, Minister
1898 - 1993
Our minds are very powerful. What we imagine, think and say can impact what we do. Creative leaders should use their imagination not only for their creative work, but also for their personal lives. Can you see yourself as a successful writer, artist or actor? Can you see yourself sitting at a desk typing that great novel or standing at a easel painting your best painting?
Do you want to change some habit or relationship? Begin by imagining yourself in a new role or relationship. See yourself successfully behaving in a new way. We call this positive visualization. Most of us already do negative visualization. Do you ever worry about the future? Worry is a negative form of visualization.
Through the process of visualization we can change who we are. This is the power of positive thinking. The easiest thing in the world is to be negative. It takes a lot more will power to be positive in a negative world. I challenge you to take five minutes each day and visualize your success.
