Imagination & Creativity

Do you know the connection between determination and imagination? Imagination is the action of forming new creative ideas that can influence or motivate you and others in a particular way. Using our imagination and life skills in school and personal experience, we’re determined to fulfill our passion and dreams.

You are probably saying to yourself, I have no imagination, what are you talking about? Well you’re wrong even if you don't realize it; everyone has imagination. It does not have to be complex: it can simple like finding a new way to take better notes or imagining being famous. The ability to imagine things influences our decision making- influencing us to become determined, hard working, responsible, organized, plan things out and so on. Your imagination and creativity can lead to elaborate theories that can improve your life, lifestyles and even inventions in many professions from simple drawings to engineering skyscrapers.
