What do you do when imagination does not become reality

Tosin Kayode



Sitting down all by myself with so many things in my head but very few on my hands!
How I wish the world was only about imaginations (to imagine a thing and have it right in front of you)
Hmm, some people believe this is true but some know that it goes beyond that; transforming dreams and imaginations to reality is a combination and permutation of various factors. As I write this, I try to recall how many imaginations I have had and how many I have seen become realities. Truly, if wishes were horses, I'll be riding on a golden horse!
Discipline, clear focus, direction, finance and above all the God-factor are the right combination of elements for the desired transformation. As humans, we set goals; goals in various and different facets of life such as business, academics, social, physical (weight loss) and others. It is often very interesting at the inception to go with the new plan but as time passes, we get bored and want a change! Some don't even get to that stage; they get lazy after a short while and fall out of the plan.
Having said all these, what's my stand? Is the world really only about imaginations? No, I say! Imagination is only a first step on the climb to reality!

Great imaginations sprout great realities! It is not enough to wish and not do anything or do little!
Imaginations are supposed to increase our drive and discipline towards whatever purpose we set to achieve. They are to fuel our energy, modify and define our vision and also trigger us to win!
My dear, Life is not a bed of roses! Though so many people know this saying but actually put it aside and imagine smooth sailing to fulfillment every time! They end up disappointed and discouraged!

As much as it is good to have big dreams, it is better to build them putting into consideration these very important and almost unavoidable constraints mostly encountered in human decisions; Time, Resources (human and financial), Stability of Objective. Bearing this in mind help us prepare ahead of time in order for the task to be achieved! Sustainable plans can be made and challenges can be handled easily. This moves imagination to a higher level on the ladder to reality! The difference between human beings lie in their degree of understanding and application of the following concepts; Discipline, Consistency, Determination, Supernatural (God) and Vision!

We're all created and born the same way, though with varying circumstances and opportunities but with one brain and one heart! How we utilize these two organs stands us out! These two facilitate our imaginations and other basic decisions.
I choose Today to stand out by the use of my heart and brain!
I'll leave you to - Decide how you choose to stand out - Decide how you imagine!
