想象力比知識更重要。——艾伯特•愛因斯坦 

    Imagination is the ability to form a mental image of something that is not perceived through the senses. It is the ability of the mind to built mental scenes, objects or events that do not exist, are not present or have happened in the past. Memory is actually a manifestation of imagi- nation. 

    Everyone possesses some imagi- nation ability. In some it may be highly developed and in others it may manifest in a weaker form. It manifests in various degrees in various people. Imagination makes it possible to experience a whole world inside the mind. It gives the ability to look at any situation from a different point of view, and enables one to mentally explore the past and the future. It manifests in various forms, one of which is daydreaming. 

    Though too much idle daydreaming may make one impractical, some daydreaming, when not being en- gaged in something that requires attention, provides some temporary happiness, calm- ness and relief from stress. In your imagination you can travel anywhere in the speed of light without any obstacles. It can make you feel free, though temporarily, and only in the mind, from tasks, difficulties and unpleasant circum- stances. Imagination is not limited only to seeing pictures in the mind. It includes all the five senses and the feelings. One can imagine a sound, taste, smell, a physical sensation or a feeling or emotion. For some people it is easier to see mental pictures, others find it easier to imagine a feeling, and some are more comfortable imagining the sensation of one of the five senses. Training of the imagination gives the ability to combine all the senses.

     A developed and strong imagination does not make you a daydreamer and impractical. On the contrary, it strengthens your creative abilities, and is a great tool for recreating and remodeling your world and life. This is a great power that can change your whole life. It is used extensively in magic, creative visualization and affirmations. It is the creator of circumstances and events. When you know how to work with it, you can make your hearts’ desires come true. Imagination has a great role and value in each one’s life. It is much more than just idle daydreaming. We all use it, whether consciously or unconsciously, in most of our daily affairs. We use our imagination when-ever we plan a party, a trip, our work or a meeting. We use it when we describe an event, explain how to arrive to a certain street, write, tell a story or cook a cake. Imagination is a crea- tive power that is necessary for inventing an instrument, designing a dress or a build- ing, painting a picture or writing a book. 

    The creative power of imagination has an im- portant role in the achievement of success in any field. What we imagine with faith and feelings
comes into being. It is the power beyond creative visualization, positive think- ing and affirmations. Visualizing an object or a situation, and repeating often this mental image, attracts the object or situation into our lives. 

    This opens for us new, vast and fascinating opportunities. This means that we should think only in a positive manner about our desires, other- wise we may create and attract into our lives，events, situations and people that we don’t really want. This is actually what most of us do, because we don’t use the power of imagination correctly. If you do not recognize the importance of the power of the imagination, and let it run riot, your life may not be as happy and successful as you would have wanted it to be.  Lack of understanding of the power of the imagination is responsible for the suffering, incompetence, difficulties, failures and unhappiness people experience. For some reason, most people are inclined to think in a negative way. They do not expect success. They expect the worst, and when they fail, they believe that fate is against them. This attitude can be changed, and then life will improve accordingly. Understanding how to use your imagination correctly, and putting this knowledge into practice, for your own and others’ benefit, will put you on the golden path to success, satisfaction and happiness. 

    想象力是形成意識畫麵的一種能力，並且這個畫麵不是通過感官得到的。這種能力可以在腦海中勾勒出現實生活中不存在、不在場或過去曾經發生過的心理畫麵
、物(wu)體(ti)或(huo)活(huo)動(dong)。記(ji)憶(yi)是(shi)想(xiang)象(xiang)的(de)展(zhan)現(xian)。每(mei)個(ge)人(ren)都(dou)具(ju)有(you)一(yi)定(ding)的(de)想(xiang)象(xiang)力(li)
，但(dan)有(you)些(xie)人(ren)的(de)想(xiang)象(xiang)力(li)可(ke)能(neng)很(hen)豐(feng)富(fu)，有(you)些(xie)人(ren)的(de)想(xiang)象(xiang)力(li)則(ze)比(bi)較(jiao)弱(ruo)。不(bu)同(tong)的(de)人(ren)想(xiang)象(xiang)力(li)的(de)程(cheng)度(du)是(shi)不(bu)同(tong)的(de)。

    想象力可以把我們腦子裏的一切感受付諸實踐。想象力用不同的觀點看待任何一種情形
，還可以使人想象過去和未來。

    想(xiang)象(xiang)力(li)有(you)不(bu)同(tong)的(de)表(biao)現(xian)形(xing)式(shi)，白(bai)日(ri)夢(meng)就(jiu)是(shi)其(qi)中(zhong)一(yi)種(zhong)。盡(jin)管(guan)過(guo)多(duo)的(de)白(bai)日(ri)夢(meng)會(hui)使(shi)人(ren)不(bu)切(qie)實(shi)際(ji)，然(ran)而(er)有(you)些(xie)白(bai)日(ri)夢(meng)

，當(dang)我(wo)們(men)無(wu)法(fa)全(quan)神(shen)貫(guan)注(zhu)於(yu)某(mou)事(shi)物(wu)時(shi)，卻(que)能(neng)給(gei)人(ren)帶(dai)來(lai)短(duan)暫(zan)的(de)快(kuai)樂(le)、平靜和放鬆，從壓力中得到暫時的解脫。

    在(zai)想(xiang)象(xiang)中(zhong)，你(ni)可(ke)以(yi)以(yi)光(guang)的(de)速(su)度(du)一(yi)路(lu)順(shun)風(feng)地(di)去(qu)世(shi)界(jie)各(ge)地(di)旅(lv)行(xing)。盡(jin)管(guan)想(xiang)象(xiang)是(shi)暫(zan)時(shi)的(de)，也(ye)隻(zhi)是(shi)在(zai)腦(nao)海(hai)中(zhong)，但(dan)它(ta)會(hui)令(ling)你(ni)遠(yuan)離(li)包(bao)袱(fu)，遠(yuan)離(li)困(kun)難(nan)，以(yi)及(ji)不(bu)順(shun)心(xin)的(de)環(huan)境(jing)，體(ti)驗(yan)自(zi)由(you)的(de)感(gan)覺(jiao)。

    想象力不隻局限於在腦海裏看見畫麵。它包括五種感覺和各種情感。一個人可以想象聲音、味道
、氣(qi)味(wei)及(ji)有(you)形(xing)的(de)意(yi)識(shi)或(huo)情(qing)感(gan)。有(you)些(xie)人(ren)很(hen)容(rong)易(yi)看(kan)到(dao)意(yi)識(shi)畫(hua)麵(mian)

    它是能夠改變你的整個人生的強大力量。想象力在魔術、創造性設想及肯定方麵有廣泛的應用。它是環境和活動的締造者。知道了如何運用想象力
，就能使你的夢想成真。

、積極的思考和肯定的意誌。

    想象一個物體或者一種情形，經常重複這個意識畫麵
，引導這個物體或情形走向我們的生活。這就為我們打開了一個嶄新的
、廣闊的、精彩的機遇。

    這就意味著我們應該，並且隻能以積極樂觀的心態規劃我們的追求，否則，就會陷入我們不想要的生活、事件、情形和群體之中。事實上，我們大多數人都是這麼做的，因為我們沒有正確運用想象力。

    如果你沒有認識到想象力的重要性
，且讓想象漫無目的
，那麼你的生活就不會像你所想要的那樣幸福和成功。

    缺少對想象力的理解是有些人感到痛苦、無能、艱jian難nan和he不bu幸xing的de原yuan因yin。由you於yu某mou種zhong原yuan因yin，大da多duo數shu人ren都dou傾qing向xiang於yu消xiao極ji地di思si考kao問wen題ti，他ta們men沒mei有you想xiang過guo成cheng功gong。當dang遇yu到dao失shi敗bai時shi，他ta們men想xiang的de是shi更geng糟zao糕gao的de情qing況kuang，他ta們men認ren為wei他ta們men的de命ming不bu好hao。如ru果guo這zhe種zhong態tai度du能neng夠gou改gai變bian的de話hua，他ta們men生sheng活huo就jiu會hui相xiang應ying地di得de到dao改gai善shan。

    知道如何正確運用你的想象力，為了你和他人的利益把你的知識付諸於實踐
，這樣你就會踏上通往成功、快樂和幸福的金光大道。
