Activate The Power of Your Imagination

ImaginationOne of the greatest creative gifts that you already have is the power of your imagination. It will take you to grand places and it will align your desires with love. Your imagination forms new potentials about how you want to live your days on Earth, how much joy you want to have, and how much abundance.

Imagination isn’t structured thoughts or a visual picture of what you want. It is an experience of wandering anywhere your heart and soul choose to go. Imagination is a living relationship with what you want. It’s a new potential for a completely new way of experiencing living life, imagined right here in this present moment.

If you are having a difficult day, if you are stuck and don’t know what to do next, if you have depression and darkness, it can be so easy to get sucked deep down into the pit of doubt and despair. Don’t struggle to get out, because struggling only makes matters worse. Don’t get stumped because you don’t know the specific steps of how to get what you want. Rather imagine connecting with the grandness of who you are. Imagine yourself already living the way you would prefer to be living right now.

Imagination works to create a new potential that did not exist before. It’s like a bubble of possibilities that you produce from the inside out. As that potential takes hold and matures, the first step will naturally show itself to you when the time is right.

Imagination is your greatest tool and it’s with you right now. Imagination unlocks the creative energy within that adds spark to your life, along with purpose, new direction, and confidence. Each day make the effort to not focus so intently on the lack of what you most want, but on imagining the potential of, “I can have what I want.”

Adrienne,
Your comment brings up a good point that of course we “want” to spend more time in the energy of the grand outcomes and desires we most want. However during any challenging or difficult experience it is often nearly impossible to untangle ourselves long enough to take a deep breath and come back to our true self presence.

Insted, the moment we experience difficult feelings we tend to judge those feelings as bad, burdensome, or even stupid. The judgement is so strong we can become engulfed by it.

Perhaps an initial step, even before creative imagination, is to have empathy for the feelings that are present. We begin from where we are in the present moment, even when the present feels burdensome and limiting.

As we gain the abilty to accept our feelings without becoming controlled by them, as we bring in true compassion for ourselves, we learn to be in charge and lead ourselves to build on our strenths, be stronger, calmer, and more able to deal with life.
