Shifting Stories: Sampling Books, One (or 2) Chapters at a time.
The man who has no imagination has no wings. —Muhammad Ali
Here is the question you might, and probably should be, asking yourself.
Why bother with learning how to be an Imagination Master? What practical use could being a master of imagination be in the “real” world, or daily life?
Perhaps you are wondering why you would waste the next few months of your life practicing how to imagine.
I mean, after all, what will your friends and family say? Perhaps they would ask you if there aren’t more productive ways to spend your time.
And then there is always the chance that, like me, imagining is something you were supposed to stop doing. Or at least hide that you are doing it.
I can’t tell you how many times a teacher, or parent, would catch me staring into space and ask me, “Are you daydreaming again?”
Yes. Yes, I was, and it was fun!
After all, I was a reader of fairy tales and science fiction, and it all seemed so marvelous. It seemed so much better than sitting behind a desk in a square room.
I asked myself what it would be like if I were a fairy in the forest? Or if there was a unicorn waiting for me to ride home.
They were the imaginations of a little girl. What good were those imaginations to me, other than to make life more fun?
And what good will being a master of imagination be for you, or me, as an adult?
Sure, now that I am long past grown-up, I can turn my imaginations into stories, and then books, and that seems like a practical thing to do after all.
But that is only one small use for it. It doesn’t answer the question of why you, or I, would want to be an Imagination Master at any age over ten.
There is such a good reason that it is almost shocking.
Especially since we have been taught that the world is only what we see or experience through our five senses. That we need to grow up and make a living. That success can be measured.
What if that was all wrong?
Imagine this. It is!
