How To Misuse Your Imagination

Worry often gives a small thing a great shadow. – Swedish Proverb

A mentor of mine (Steve Chandler) says that worry is a misuse of our imagination.

He’s right.

We’re best served by using our imagination to ponder what what we want and what we need to do (i.e. who we we need to serve… ) to get it.

Anything else gives worrisome thoughts too much credence – of which they deserve none.

It gives them the chance to cast a shadow, a shadow that limits your ability to see who you (really) are and what you (truly) want.

Focus on what you want and who you want to become.

Use your imagination properly.
