What is imagination? How is it cultivated?
A dream is something that comes without our permission in sleep. But when we are awake, imagination occurs with our knowledge in the conscious mind. Imagination is about things that cannot be experienced by our senses but can be experienced by our mind. Ideas that develop in the conscious mind with imagination help to reach realization through dreams during sleep.
Children who lack imagination have a hard time learning. Imagination is needed to generate ideas and solve problems. The lack of imagination is especially noticeable in children who do not like math. When there are many ways and answers to a question, such people are unable to choose the most appropriate one. If many problems come together in life, they cannot solve them one by one according to their priority.
All the wonders of the world are ideas born out of someone’s imagination. The internet, artificial intelligence, computers and modern inventions that are now most talked about all originated in the imagination of some people. Those who have a good imagination can enjoy success in life and a good future.
Spend some time thinking about something every day to develop imaginative skills. Sometimes nothing happens in the beginning. After a couple of weeks, some vague things seem to come to mind. If we repeat this action again, we will feel them becoming clearer. If these are done with meditation, the results are much greater.
I encourage you to grow as a promising imaginative person.

I couldn’t even ‘imagine’, how important imagination is in our daily routine. Everything we do we imagine even though “I” didn’t think it was imagination. On any day it starts when we wake up in the morning we think (imagine) it’s going to be a good day. We plan the day, what we wear,what we eat, what’s going to be the weather like,where we’re going, what time we get there, what we are doing,whom you are meeting,when we’re coming back what time we go to bed, the list goes on. I don’t think I can finish the list easily.
To develop imagination think what you want to do , write down the different ways to achieve the goal, try to visualize,act according to the idea that gives the best outcome .
