Every thought, belief, theory, idea, and memory you have, appears within the space of your imagination. If that seems like a bold claim to you, or if you understand and wish to solidify that understanding, read on.

Your Imagination is Incredibly Significant and Powerful

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” — Albert Einstein.

“Everything you can imagine is real. “ — Pablo Picasso

“Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.” — John Lennon

“What you think, you become.
What you feel, you attract.
What you imagine, you create.” — Buddha.

“The man who has no imagination has no wings “ — Muhammad Ali

“The limit of man s knowledge in any subject possesses a high interest which is perhaps increased by its close neighborhood to the realms of imagination.” — Charles Darwin

Contemplate

Don’t let this be a list that you skim over. When Einstein says that imagination is more important than knowledge, and Buddha says what you imagine, you create, you can easily think and move forward with your usual thoughts! Take some time, put yourself in the position of the people who said these quotes, and meditate on the presence of your imaginative ability.

Take an earnest internal look at the value you place on certainty and knowledge vs. imagination and creativity. Not as concepts, as living realities. What do you often imagine? Does it often happen?

If you imagine unpleasant things, persevere and imagine what exactly the opposite would be.
