Your imagination
is one of your intangible assets. Intangible assets are the seeds of God
in you for increase. They are meant to generate tangible assets. That is to say
that you birth tangible assets with your intangible assets.
Your imagination
can become a wealth plaza if the wildest runs of your imagination are properly
harnessed to create wealth. Jacob was severally short changed by Laban. Rather
than complain, murmur, grumble, wish Laban evil or even curse Laban in his
heart or in the fields where he shepherded the flocks of Laban, steal from
Laban; Jacob chose to put his imagination to very brilliant use. He collated
the strings of ideas on how to come up with streaked animals out of non
streaked animals, experimented and succeeded in growing a large number of
animals that made him wealthy. Jacob gave commercial value to his imagination
and created great wealth. He shared some of the wealth with his twin brother
Esau and still had much. That gives an idea of how much wealth the positive use
to which he put his imagination generated.
To give commercial value to your imagination, you need
to stretch your thinking faculties to the real of extraordinary possibility thinking
where you see impossibilities become possibilities. The realm of extraordinary
possibility thinking enables you to live life without limits by helping you to see
solutions to challenges. It also helps you to expand your horizons. Your
horizons are elastic and can be expanded as often as you desire. To expand your
horizons, you have to expand your thinking and strategizing abilities and
capacities. Think beyond borders, outside the box. Visualize your God given
potential to spread out to the right, to the left, North, South, West and East.
This will enable you to reproduce. Reproduction
entails a lot of creative and strategic thinking. Jacob arrived at the strategy
of overcoming the challenges posed to his prosperity and independence after
much thinking. He imagined how to grow speckled flocks from non speckled flocks
and implemented and became wealthy. He visualized the process and implemented
it. Jacob used a technology he created
from his imagination to grow his personal flock of streaked, speckled and spotted
livestock. Please see Genesis Chapters 30 verses 37 to 43 and 31 verses 1 to 18.
You can also do same if only you will lift your eyes, look from where you are
to where God wants you to be, where you should be globally and not the local
champion you think you are and celebrate and therefore have become complacent.
