Albert Einstein said that imagination is the greatest creative force in the universe. Why do you think that such a great man would say something that sounds silly and trivial?
How about Disneyland? How do you think it was created? Walt Disney said that had he not seen Disneyland in his mind, the rest of the world would not have seen it on Earth.
How about Windows software that made Bill Gates one of the richest people in the world? Do you think he just developed it without imagining how it should be?
So how is your imagination today?
Are you thinking about doing that load of laundry when you get home or fixing that broken chair?
Or are you thinking about cruising the high seas in your beautiful yacht while your crew caters to your every need?
Your imagination can make you rich or it can leave you stuck in the rut you live in today.
Anyone can dream. Anyone can imagine.
But, not everyone can make it for real.
You are the only one in control of your destiny and that’s something many of us forget as we get caught up in our day-to-day lives that are filled with work, family, struggles, and financial woes.
No one is going to hand you wealth and if you are hoping to win the lottery, you’re likely going to be disappointed.
You certainly aren’t going to grow rich working for another person, but you’ll likely help to make them grow rich.
Where do you want to put your energy? Are you going to focus on doing a great job at working and helping your company owner to grow rich or are you going to focus on doing a great job for your own business and making yourself rich?
The choice is yours.
It takes a lot more than walking out the door of your current employer to find wealth.
You need to have a dream and a desire.
What are your dreams? What do you want to be doing 10 years from now?
Think about it now.
Then, now that you have a dream, do you have the desire?
Do you have the drive to figure out a way to get yourself there?
Use your imagination and don’t be afraid to think outside the box. There are plenty of opportunities awaiting you.
You just have to step out of your comfort zone and live your dream.
Remember, getting rich is not one of those ‘get rich overnight’ schemes.
If you are looking for an easy way that requires no work, you are not going to make it to wealth.
To be rich doesn’t mean you work your fingers to the bone but it does require you to participate and be a part of the process.
It does require you to turn your vision, your dream into a reality and to direct others so that it can happen.
Bottom line – never underestimate your power to dream and imagine the life that everyone would want.
But don’t just be stuck on imagining, it’s just the first step.
The rest of getting rich will be up to YOU.
