‘Anything one man can imagine, other men can make real’ – Jules Verne (Around the World in 80 Days)
Imagination is the ability to form mental images, analogies, or narratives of something that is not perceived through our senses. It is a manifestation of our memory and enables us to scrutinize our past and construct hypothetical future scenarios that do not yet but could exist. It allows us to see things in advance.
People react differently to what they see due to the unique interpretations they make based on different prior knowledge and experience. Imagination enables us to create new meanings from cognitive cues or stimuli within the environment, which on occasions can lead to new insights.
Jules Verne is extending it further to state that the onus of turning imagination into reality is not only on the originator. Someone else could convert the vision into reality. But it is necessary for that imagination to be passed on to others. The ball has to be passed for it to reach the goal.
Most do not share their imagination as they want sole custody of the success to follow. But we must realise that every time we share our creative thoughts, there are multiple benefits possible like feedback, suggestions and support. But the best possibility is that someone else may fructify your seed.
Don’t hold on to your imagination
Sharing increases
shots at acton!
