Imagination

Do animals set goals?
Animals do not set goals, they have it already built in. It is called instinct for them. There goal in life is to feed themselves, find shelter and procreate the species. They are not aware of what they are doing, it is already been programmed in their genes

What is the one big advantage the human being has over the animals? If you said imagination you are right on the money, yes we have the power of imagination. With out it we would be greater than the animals and the world would be an entirely different place that what we know today. Human beings have this skill, we have the ability to dream, and make our dreams come into being.

Since mankind has been on the earth he has strived for more understanding and vision. Even the humble wheel came from somebody thought process or observation. So it is to this very day, but what does it mean to dream?

I am not talking about the dreams we have during our sleeping hours, but the ones we have during our waking hours. Dreams of becoming something or someone. The dreams of being a success at everything we take on. Let me say at this point there is nothing wrong with these sort of dreams, without them we are dead in the water.

Having a dream in life is something we should all strive have and see come true. However there are a few things we must understand when shooting for a dream. Unfortunately many people miss the point.

The very first thing you need to understand is, your dream is just that, your dream. Never let anyone steal it from you, we have all heard "What makes you think you can do that"? or "I know so and so can do it but not you" Letting these word from other people effect us is downright folly.

To be a success at gaining any dream you like requires a steadfastness that many do not have. To be a success requires a one mindedness, and a passion to see it though to the very end. As problems come along work over them. You know one the famous speakers on Motivation "Dr Norman Vincent Peale" said it like this.

If you don't have a problem, then go out and get one. Beg one Borrow one even steal one if you have to, because without a problem you are going nowhere. Once you overcome that problem find another until you reach your dream.

This is what imagination can do for us, treasure the fact that you have this gift and above all use it.

SOLVE PROBLEMS

To create we must solve something

And to laugh we must give

Though in times things cry and try

Yet in solving we sow to reap

Who holds the mind salvation to give?

Why barring, the heart falls apart

Ah! Lays the power of life too brief

Why wail the world without freedom?

Hand-in-hand the bother sober

We are that of problem to grow

Why wait the dead to drive death?

A problem must be solved to flow

I call upon problem solvers!

I cry my heart out for pardon

But then their growth eyes closed

O for to awake no more gluttony borne
