If everyone simply <em>talks<\/em> about vague strategies, nothing gets accomplished.<\/p>\n<p>But that doesn\u2019t mean visions are unimportant. The truth is, they are.<\/p>\n<p>Being passionate, as I discussed in my last post, motivates you to work on <em>something.<\/em> But what that <em>something<\/em> becomes depends on your vision.<\/p>\n<h1>What are creative visionaries?<\/h1>\n<p>Creative visionaries may be viewed as impractical dreamers. As quirky entrepreneurs. Or even as geniuses. The \u201cright\u201d answer depends on your definition of vision and visionary. Here are a few.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Merriam-Webster defines <em>vision<\/em> as: \u201csomething that you imagine \u2013 a picture that you see in your mind.\u201d It defines a <em>visionary<\/em> as: \u201cone having unusual foresight and imagination.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Dictionary.com defines <em>vision<\/em> as: \u201cthe act or power of anticipating that which will or may come to be.\u201d&nbsp; A <em>visionary<\/em> is defined as: \u201ca person of unusually keen foresight.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Oxford Dictionaries defines <em>vision<\/em> as: \u201cthe ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom.\u201d&nbsp; A <em>visionary<\/em> is defined as: \u201ca person with original ideas about what the future will or could be like.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The common themes in these definitions \u2013<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"> imagination, originality<\/span>, and <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">foresight<\/span> \u2013 are what I\u2019d like to focus on here. Creative visionaries use imagination to create mental pictures. They use original thinking to challenge the status quo. And they use foresight to connect their concepts to the future.<\/p>\n<h1>Imagination of creative visionaries<\/h1>\n<p>Imagination is the gateway to creative intuition. It starts with dreaming and daydreaming. We do it all the time in an unfocused way. Sometimes it\u2019s referred to as creative visualization. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.authentichappiness.sas.upenn.edu\/learn\/creativity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">University of Pennsylvania&#8217;s Imagination Institute<\/a>, imagination is &#8220;the conscious representation of what is not immediately present to the senses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-251 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein.png\" alt=\"creative visionaries: imagination\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein.png 1500w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein-300x236.png 300w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein-768x604.png 768w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein-1024x805.png 1024w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Einstein-382x300.png 382w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Your goal is to <em>experience<\/em> the outside world inside your mind. First, ask a lot of &#8220;what if&#8221; questions. Then use your imagination to connect the answers into a virtual tapestry. Form and manipulate mental images in your brain\u2019s neural network.<\/p>\n<p>To start, <em>practice<\/em> visualization. Look out the window. Pick out an object (a car, fire hydrant, sign or anything). Mentally rotate it as a 3D image. \u201cSee\u201d it in your mind from all angles.<\/p>\n<p>Or take two objects (either physical or non-physical such as music). Reflect on how you could combine them into a single complex item.<\/p>\n<p>Write stories, especially fiction where you need to connect with the characters.<\/p>\n<p>Practice photography. Manipulate the images with digital software.<\/p>\n<p>Remodel your home.<\/p>\n<p>Your imagination goal is to work on activities that require complex, holistic connections.<\/p>\n<p>Einstein believed intuition and imagination spawned achievements in both science and art. He suggested the main difference was that science is conveyed in the language of logic. Art is conveyed through the senses. But imagination is the starting point for both.<\/p>\n<h1>Originality of creative visionaries<\/h1>\n<p>Next up, originality.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s important to \u201cthink outside the box,\u201d originality is more than that. You should know what\u2019s<strong><em> in<\/em><\/strong> the box first.<\/p>\n<p>People at times think they have created something original simply because they haven\u2019t explored what\u2019s actually out there.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-252 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery.png\" alt=\"creative visionaries: originality\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery.png 1500w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery-300x229.png 300w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery-768x585.png 768w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery-1024x780.png 1024w, https:\/\/lindagorchels.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/discovery-394x300.png 394w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So rather than isolate creativity, give your brain significant mental stimuli. Then let it incubate in an effort to create fresh ideas. Original thinking may simply be \u201cseeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought.\u201d&nbsp;Reconfigure existing gadgets. Try unconventional applications of current things. Give them new life.<\/p>\n<p>Originality means viewing things in novel ways. But it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean reinventing the wheel. As William Craig pointed out in Fortune\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/williamcraig\/2014\/10\/10\/why-creativity-isnt-all-about-originality\/#5484d3ae39a9\">Why Creativity Isn\u2019t all About Originality,<\/a> vision can be focused on execution. Lego, Apple and Oreo, for example, were successful due to business savvy as much as invention.<\/p>\n<h1>Foresight of creative visionaries<\/h1>\n<p>Finally, being a visionary means looking into the future.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.media.mit.edu\/events\/towards-a-foresightful-innovation\/\">MIT defines foresight<\/a> as \u201cthe Art and Science of inventing and designing the&nbsp;future.
