That is what we do with a lot of things in our lives.
Let’s say you know what your purpose is, but you are afraid to go after it. You are afraid because you have used your imagination to think of all
negative things that “could” happen.
You picture yourself as a failure. You imagine that you won’t be able to make a living doing what you love. You imagine losing your house or your children starving to death because you can’t support them. You imagine everyone laughing at your idea. You imagine that it will never work. You imagine that people will think you are crazy because you even THOUGHT that you could do something wonderful.
So, you do nothing. You stay on a job that you know will never pay you type of money that you want and need. You stay on a job that just doesn’t feel good to your soul. You stay on a job that stresses you out each and every day of your life because you imagine that you would die without this job. You imagine that if you weren’t working there, you probably wouldn’t be able to do anything else—well, with economy as it is and all. You imagine that you’ll be on unemployment for months and not have enough money to survive. NO THANK YOU! I’LL STAY RIGHT HERE AND SUFFER.
But, what if you used your imagination in a positive way? What if you imagined yourself living life you’ve always wanted to live? What if you imagined yourself having all things you want and need? What if you imagined yourself moving closer to God and God supplying all of your needs for you? What if you used your imagination and created ways that you could make a living doing one thing that you love to do most? What if you used your imagination and imagined that you were a multi-millionaire? What if you did this all time? What if you imagined you living life you’ve always wanted to live?
Do you know that by using your imagination in positive way that positive things will start to happen for you?
You will start to have ideas and thoughts that will bring you closer to what you want out of life. You will start to create things that will help you get to where you want to be and do things that you want to do.
ACTION POINT: From this day forward, whenever you find your imagination running towards negative—STOP. Rewind. Shift gears and use your imagination towards something POSITIVE. It takes same amount of energy to think of something positive as it does to think of something negative. Why not create positive things in your life?
Use your imagination wisely.
