Many years ago I read where Napoleon Hill pointed out that the imagination is the most marvelous miraculousinconceivably powerful force that the world has ever known And you know the average individual uses the imagination ifthey use it at all against themselves They imagine what they don't want They imagine problems coming Let's begin touse our imagination the way God meant it to be used It's the greatest creative facultythat we possess And we can build anything we want with I want you to wander around your homeor possibly your office and take a look at all of the conveniences that you have thereThat you didn't have let's say 2 years 5 years 10 years ago 25 years ago Do youknow that every one of them without exception was first created In the mind ofone individual with their imagination you know you can use your imagination to go into the future andbring it into the present That's what all highly successful people do They see where they want to goand then they act like the person they want to become It was William James from Harvard's Advice He saysit's the actor's technique Act like the person you want to become How do you do that Wellyou use your imagination of course You see it's a strange phenomenon But the greatestgift we've got is used Very well Up to the ages of 4 or possibly 5 The little childWe always wonder what's going on in their mind They're using their imagination They're building wonderful picturesin their mind but then they get to school and wham like that it comes to anabrupt halt It's called not paying attention Daydreaming Well What they were really doing was exercising a phenomenalmental faculty You see we can see here smell taste touch They're for our physical benefit As long aswe're living in a physical body and corresponding with the material world we will use oursensory factors But you know I have a couple of little dogs at home that can hear see smelltaste and touch We've got higher faculties You have perception the will Memory intuition reasonAnd imagination These marvelous tools We can take our imagination and build an image in our mind ofhow we want to live Block out what's going now Don't let your present resultshave anything to do with this Just what you want And it's with your imagination that youwill build it Everything that we have the camera that I'm speaking to right nowwas first created in the mind of one individual Think of how our world's changed You see we were giftedwith these higher faculties We're God's highest form of creation We were created in God's imageWe were given creative faculties to use And you know they're only used by 2 or 3%of the population It's almost inconceivable that people would wander around with so much power and potentialand squander it See the average person literally tiptoes through life hoping they make it safely todeath It's such a shame and it doesn't have to be that way I think we havegiant corporations and little we creative departments The primary reason for that is the average individualreally does not believe that they're I think Everyone's creative and no one is morecreative than another It's just that some have chosen to use their creative faculties to agreater degree than others Imagination your imagination What do you want How do you really want to live Build thepicture in your mind There's a power that is flowing to and through you A creative unadulteratedpower It can be photographed leaving your body Way back in the 30s Semyon Kurlin the Russianphotographer perfected a form of photography where you can actually photograph a person's body and you will see theenergy glowing from them Well that energy flows into your mind And it's the images you build in yourmind that's going to dictate the vibration that this instrument you're living in is in And thevibration on a conscious level is called feeling Make certain that you exercise your imaginationdaily build beautiful images in your mind of how you want to live and then hold thosepictures there and live that way The imagination The greatest nation in the world the imaginationYou've got one It's a marvelous creative tool It deals with the invisible side of your personalityYou see no one will ever really see you They'll only see your body and they'll see you thegreat work that you do Make certain that your work is great work And ifyou keep your imagination alive keep it active You're gonna have a phenomenal life You know life canget better every day and it will get better every day Through the proper use Of your imagination Whata wonderful idea This is Bob Proctor
