We All Have The Capacity To Innovate
Innovation is a function of our ability to determine the focus of our imagination.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry famously said - “A pile of rocks ceases to be a rock pile when somebody contemplates it with the idea of a cathedral in mind.”
We sell ourselves short when we argue that unique creativity is only available to the chosen few e.g. Mozart, Picasso, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk.
Being uniquely creative, being an innovator is a choice about how you use your imagination.
Imagination is ancient technology. It is neutral. We all have it.
Imagination creates everything, we use it to make things up, to make dreams real and create what matters.
It is about make believe but it is not child's play.
Imagination is the key to FREEDOM.
The trick is how to harness it.
Is your imagination powered by SPIRIT, the part of you that is wild, free, unfettered and focused on creativity?
Or by STORY, the careful, cautious, rational part of you focused on problem solving and survival?
Powered by SPIRIT imagination connects us to everything past, present and future in a non linear quantum reality.
Imagination powered by SPIRIT It is powerful, innovative, rule-breaking and life changing. It is radical. It is not for wimps.
The ability to shift the focus in your consciousness is the difference between creating a reality that matters or a reality that perpetuates the status quo.
It starts with a choice to hook your imagination to the engine of SPIRIT.
What do you choose?
