Thoughtful Tuesday - Become Einstein


Gooooood morning and welcome back.... Me I mean.. Yes yes I've been slacking, some may say lazy, and haven't posted in quite a while... 

It's actually quite difficult to find a balance between too frequent and not enough.. Clearly I'm a work in progress on that one.

Today's post is one of my short, sweet and direct ones soon to be followed by my usual war and peace so don't panic :)


 

'Imagination is more important than knowledge' - Albert Einstein.

The difference between 'knowledge' and 'imagination' is that you can learn the things other people have discovered or invented.... With imagination... You can create the things other people become knowledgable about!

Without imagination, our world would be full of the 'known' and nothing new would be invented.

Put simply, our imagination allows us to dream whilst we are awake... Just think... Those nights where you've slept and had the most amazing dreams about the perfect life, happiness, love... You can make them a reality... The more you dream when you are awake the closer you get to them.  

Humans live in fear of the unknown... What might or might not happen... How you will handle the situation.  So why not run through the script before hand? Familiarise yourself with the storyline and how you want things to pan out.. Imagining all the obstacles along the way.  Think about how you'd overcome them... If you can't ... Then why not reach out for help from family or friends or the internet 'how would you handle...'x'. 

The more we familiarise ourselves with situations, the more 'experience' neurological pathways we create in the brain... (This happens when you dream and imagine)...Experiences we can call upon when the time comes in the real world.

So be bold, be free... Let your imagination open your eyes to what you can discover or invent!  Everyone has the power to be Einstein!

So I challenge you... Encourage you...to break free from the shackles of modern life and really live!
