“You May Say I’m A Dreamer”
Imagining: “Visualizing new possibilities for you company’s policies, practices, and products.”
In the famous words of Einstein, “Imagination is more important than knowledge”.
What separates the dazzling winners from everyone else is that they are able to envision a grand future. What turns them into winners is that they are able to leap into that future and do the hard work necessary to make it great.
Particularly for die-hard realists and people who have been trained (by parents, friends, or spouse) to be “responsible” and “stable”, indulging in imagination can be difficult. For every idea that’s even mildly revolutionary, a little voice chimes in, “Impossible. You can’t do that. That’s stupid. It’ll never work.” Quiet that voice and spend some time ruminating on your wild, far-out, fanciful ideas. Great leader do things that no one before them has done.
