Welcome to Love Notes from Rhonda.

And today let's talk about imagination.

Your imagination.

You know, they say that your results in life are only equal to the level of your ability to imagine.

Imagination is one of our greatest tools, one of our greatest forces.

One of the things that is inherent within each of us.

While some of us have a difficult time imagining things visually, I. E. You know, red, blue, yellow.

Many of us imagine with a feeling or a sense or a scent.

So it doesn't matter how you imagine.

It may be just feeling based or it may be a full on picture.

But what I want you to do is just to allow your imagination to run wild.

Allow your imagination to make up.

Allow your imagination to create.

Imagine.

Such a valuable and important and underutilized word.

Imagine.

Imagine yourself as you'd like to be.

Imagine yourself being a loving, fearless human being.

Confident, bold, fearless, famous.

A star in your own right, in your own life.

Imagine.

Imagine finishing that project, writing that book, smiling at strangers.

Imagine.

Imagine yourself doing the things that maybe you've yearned to do, cried to do, dared to do, begged to do, wanted to do, hoped to do.

Imagine.

So I want you to stop right now and just allow yourself to imagine.

Now maybe when I ask you that, you immediately know what you imagine, right?

You've been imagining it for your whole life.

Well, that too is worth honoring.

That imagination that has been with you.

That dream, that goal, that I'll just keep on using the word imagination, that image that you see before you.

I want you to allow that imagination to be alive so many times.

Our thinking, those negative thoughts, that thinking.

The practicality of life gets in the way of our imagination.

But we don't want our practicality to harness our imagination to stop our imagination.

We want it to be utilized by our imagination.

We want our imagination to be the forerunner of our life.

And then using our thinking, our heart, our body, our spirit, all of it, to unfold that imagination into reality.

Now, it doesn't mean you're going to fulfill that imagination dream in this lifetime, or this year, or in 10 years.

That's not the point.

It's exciting, don't get me wrong.

But the imagination is more about an attitude, a focus, a dream, a passion, a purpose.

You know, think about the right brothers flying a plane for the first time.

They imagined.

First and foremost, they imagined it to be possible.

And then they set to do a lot of work to make it happen.

And I don't remember how many seconds they were in the air the first time, but it was their imagination come true.

Now.

It wasn't their ultimate imagination.

What we have today would blow their minds.

But there was an imagination.

There was an image, there was a.

A feeling, a possibility that they allowed to take over, allowed to move them, allowed to nudge them.

Your imagination is a powerful force for you to live the life your soul intended.

I invite you to honor it.

Use your brain, body, heart and spirit to support your imagination, not to hold it down.

I love you.
