Imagination is really important in our everyday life. We dream, hope and make plans for the future using our imagination. So, if you want to use your imagination to its highest level, you have to participate in activities that allow you daydreaming. I’ve made a list of a few activities known as “creative boosters”. Take a look.

Try to read fiction stories as much as possible

Reading fiction can spark human’s imagination. While reading this genre you are able to forget about yourself and your worries for some period of time. When getting involved in good fiction book, you’re releasing your mind from the everyday thoughts. That allows you full concentration on the fictional world, not on the real one. Because you are able to free your mind, you are able to open yourself to new ways of thinking too.

According to the Oatley’s study, reading fiction can change your life by changing your personality (which is related with your imagination). The participants were involved in the study by reading fiction and nonfiction pieces. After the testing, the results suppressed everyone.  Those who read the fiction stories had a very tiny change in their personality. They had slightly better understanding of the other people and the real world around them.

Art stimulation

Go to a museum or an art gallery and expose yourself to visual inspiration. Take some time and find some piece of art that moves you. Look at the art piece very carefully. Let your mind flow. Start thinking about the art piece and ask yourself questions such as: What does this picture show you? What’s there behind the scene? What if the sky was in a different color? Why do you find this piece of art attractive?
 
By asking questions you are forcing yourself to consider new possibilities. It’s very important to know that asking questions is an effective way for expanding your imagination. Yes, as you are trying to find some answers you are more likely to overcome the status quo and to start growing and learning. This means you’ll start expending your believes and thinking.
 
Playing video games

Playing video games have shown to have a positive effect on human imagination. It’s because they are great source for new ideas and experiencing new situations. As a player you’ll be forced to think and act in a completely new way (compared to the thinking in the real world). For an example, when playing RPG games (role-playing games) you must develop your own character and story. By doing that you’ll be able to live in your secret fantasies. You might choose to be an army general who is trying to lead his army to the battlefield. So, you must think, move and make decisions like an army general. Or maybe you want to play the role of a pilot who is trying to save the world. It’s your decision and your imagination.

While working on improving your imagination, it’s very important to have some “escape moments” out of the everyday world. The gaming world is the place that offers you a chance for escape from the real life situations. For the particular period of time you can escape from the responsibilities of your life and forget about the worries. You stay focused only on the game as you are trying to find a way to fulfill the task.  

Try to incorporate these activities into your daily life as much as you can and spread you fantasy to as far as it can go.

Like a person with a lot of creativity and wish for knowing new things I start with writing articles. Knowing the fact that my article will be useful advice for somebody out there, keep me doing the writing.Making research on new topics, and represent all of them to the millions of people is really big help to the next generation.I have on my mind that we have to improve the way of life on every aspect that we can.
