Keys To Awaken Your Unlimited Creative Potential And Power

What would your world look like if you awakened your inner power?

Do you believe you have unlimited creative power and potential? Maybe a better question would be are you willing to believe it?

If this is too hard for you to believe from your current perspective on life, are you willing to find out a little bit more?

For example, what if I told you that you live in two worlds simultaneously, the inner world of thoughts, feelings, and beliefs and the outer world of your physical reality?

And that it’s the inner world that is creating your outer world.

Are you willing to open your mind to see this as a real possibility?

Think about it for a moment.

What if William Shakespeare was right when he said:

Today’s dream is tomorrow’s reality.

Or Napoleon Hill hundreds of years later when he said:

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe it can achieve.

The major key to accessing your creative power is:

Your ability to use your imagination.

This is a vital part of your ability to tap into your unlimited creative power and potential and it’s the faculty of imagination that enables you to become more and experience more.

It is a tantalizing and unique design of nature that our best life must be attracted from within rather than pursued from without.

At the same time, it’s unlikely that your ability to awaken and use your creative potential and power will derive from anything other than your ability to tap into your imagination on purpose.

The inventors and innovators

Everyone who ever invented something or found a way to access the healing potential of plants, or harness nature for power could never have experienced such success without their ability to imagine.

In the world of our senses, we see what we have to see; in the world of our imagination, we can see what we want to see.

And that’s just what these inventors and those who accessed the healing powers of plants or harnessed nature did. They used their imagination to see what they wanted to see.

And you have that in spades. You’ve always had it, you simply might not have used it deliberately and on your behalf.

How I discovered the creative power within

I first discovered the power of imagination at work in my life when I was six years old.

I know it sounds a little far-fetched. But it really is true.

Of course, I didn’t know what it was called, and way back then, and I mean really way back then…the concept of imagination as a manifesting tool, or creative visualization or whatever you might call it was unheard of, at least to the vast majority of the world.

Here’s my story:

When I was six, I would always take a book to bed. And one night I was reading Jane Eyre.

You’re probably thinking what six-year-old would be reading a classical book? Especially one at that level.

It happened to be a very small picture book. With pictures and words depicting each scene. Almost like a comic.

When I reached the point of seeing Mrs. Rochester, who if you haven’t read Jane Eyre was mentally unstable, the picture of her scared me to death.

I put the book down and closed my eyes but couldn’t get the picture of her out of my mind…I kept seeing her wild hair and scary eyes and my feelings of fright became overwhelming.

So I conjured up a different picture, an image, where I would feel better.

I put myself in a field of flowers and in my imagination saw myself running happily through this beautiful field, feeling joyful, with the sun on my face and a blue sky above my head.

It was something that felt good to me. I had unwittingly tapped into the energy of happiness instead of the energy of fright.

Scary Mrs. Rochester disappeared and I fell asleep.

Are you operating consciously or unconsciously?

No one had ever told me I could do this.

And I never knew that it had a name till many, many years later, but it was a technique I’d discovered that I could use throughout my early childhood when I was scared or upset and couldn’t sleep.

And it was all unconsciously done.

I was unconsciously competent in that area.

Sadly as I got older I dropped this ability and virtually forgot all about it until I was well into adulthood.

And I’m not sure to this day what triggered the memory of this ability in later years that moved me to investigate more deeply.

Your innate ability

I share my story to let you know that this innate ability to use your imagination to move away from fear, or to change the results in your life has always been within you, even as a child.

You might not have known about it, or, like me, might have used it unconsciously.

Think about it for a moment.

Maybe you’ll come up with times when you were tapping into your creative power to experience more of what you wanted and less of what you didn’t want, and realize that you can actually do it purposefully, towards an aim or a goal that you have.

Another major key is becoming aware of living in two separate but connected worlds

Confidence does not exist in the outer world.

Fear does not exist in the outer world.

Happiness does not exist in the outer world.

These are energetic forces and they stem from our inner world of imagination, beliefs, feelings, and assumptions.

And we live in both worlds, but the outer world of our physical reality tends to rule the roost.

The question is not whether the power of imagination will work for us but rather whether we will work with the power of imagination?

That’s the challenge that confronts us all.

Test it for yourself

First, you need to become aware and keep an open mind.

You don’t have to accept what I say, but you could test it for yourself and see what happens in your world!

Because what if you do have unlimited creative potential just waiting for you to become more aware of the unexpected and phenomenal possibilities that abound in your life?

Believe in your infinite potential. Your only limitations are those you set upon yourself. ― Roy T. Bennett
