Ep. 78 | Going Beyond All That You Can Think, Hope, or Imagine
You have an amazing imagination.
In fact, your mind does not know how to differentiate between imagination and reality. In fact, Harvard Medical School researchers have investigated the power of imagination with a group of volunteers who had no prior experience playing the piano. There was a group who intensely practiced the piano for 5 days and a group who imagined themselves going through the same piano practice as the other group. What did they find? They found that the brain activity was almost identical between the two groups.
In today's episode we talk about the importance of harnessing your imagination in your life. In order to create anything in life you must have an vision and image of what you are trying to create. Here's the problem, most people spend most, if not all, of their imagination on outcomes that they do not want to happen. They visualize running out of money, failing on a project, and not being able to provide for their loved ones. These thoughts keep people in a state of overwhelm, anxiety, and doubt. It robs them of their energy and does not leave a reservoir of energy to create anything new.
God's word says that without a vision people perish. That word for perish implies that they're exposed and vulnerable to harm. Yet, those who have a vision and direction for their life are happy and blessed.
