Imagination is Important
Posted on Feb 08, 2008 under Advice, Work Attitude and Values | No Comment
In the corporate world, there is a roaming disease called the “Hurry Scurry†syndrome. Whenever there are problems, it’s resolved hurriedly, by whatever is right in one’s face or readily available. It’s also common that other people are scurried by those who are supposed to be responsible of the mess.
Most people just think of the easy way out and don’t bother anymore to give time to thinking. Little did these people know that stopping long enough to think would lead to imagination – the bearer of the best solution. As imagination is often associated with whimsical things, it is left inactive in the workplace. This should not be, for imagination, believe it or not, can do wonders in making excellent achievements. To be visionary is one’s ticket to genuine success. Go ahead, imagine, and you might just see it!
