Incredible India Monthly Contest of March #1:Imagination vs Creation!

One young boy was sitting in front of his mum small kiosk. He was looking how people do walk and pass, some were rushing to the market, some do drag leg because sun was too hot. The boy doesn't have any money, no big education yet, but as he was sitting down, he imagine how to turn that small kiosk into a big supermarket one day. He picture shelves full of goods, customers lining up, and his mum smile because life is better. That's how imagination works and from that kind imagination which is ordinary but deep, creation will start.

We know that if a person don't dream, it will be hard to do. Imagination is like a foundation which is under the house. If you want to build house, you won't just carried block and begin to pile it without plan. That's how imagination work. Before you create anything—whether its music, business, or even small invention—you must first see it inside your mind.

For example. Before they shoot film, the producer has already imagine the storyline, the characters, the scene and incidents that will happen, and the twist which will make the audience shout. Its that imagination do guide the creation. If you don't picture it clearly, you will walk like a person which is inside the bush without torchlight. So yes, imagination is very significant. Without it, creation will be blind. But imagination alone is not enough; you have to put your hand to work, because dream which doesn't have action is just daydream.

We all respect age very well. But when it reach creation, age doesn't matter. Think it this way: A woman is 65 years which can still start new business of selling mineral and bread, and she will blow because she has fresh idea. Likewise, small children that are 12 years can design app which will help people to find cheap transport.

Creation doesn't look your age, it's look your mind and your courage. If you are old but your brain is still sharp, you can still create. If you are young but you have boldness, you can still create. That's why we always say that “creation is beyond age.” You will see old men carving wood, young boys do rap, women do sew new fashion styles. All of them will create, no matter the age. So if anybody say that you are old for creation, please don't agree. Creation do flow like river, it won't stop because of birthday.

This one is a deep question. For me, I believe that imagination is clear like clean water. If your imagination is transparent, you can see the bottom very well. You will know the steps which you need to take. But if your imagination is cloudy, you will be confuse.

So yes, transparent imagination do help creation to stand strong. But sometimes, even imagination which is not too clear can still lead to creation, because as you are moving, the road is open. It's courage and persistence that join imagination to make creation real.

In all imagination is the first step, but creation is the real fact. Age doesn't stop anybody, and clarity of imagination do make the journey smoother. Whether you are a young hustler, once you can imagine and put hand to work, creation will show. The truth is that, imagination is seed, creation is fruit. If you plant very well, water it with effort, and don't allow fear to eat you, you will harvest something which can shock the world.
