“Finally, it is important to make it clear that imagination is not an exercise for those detached from reality, those who live in the air. On the contrary, when we imagine something, we do it necessarily conditioned by a lack in our concrete reality. When children imagine free and happy schools, it is because their real schools deny them freedom and happiness.” ChildrenImportantRealRealitySchoolImaginationClearImagineAirSocietyExerciseDenyContraryConcreteDetachedFreedom And Happiness Author:Paulo Freire

“Intuition is a combination of insight and imagination that was once attributed to spiritual communication. Mathematicians call it 'fuzzy logic,' drawing conclusions from vague or subjective input. The mind becomes aware without the direct intervention of reasoning. Once you can imagine something you can begin the process of creating it. Executives use intuition to make many product, investment, and hiring decisions, even if they deny it. Success in business may depend on an accurate gut.” IfsMindMayUseSpiritualProcessImaginationDecisionBusinessImagineProductsCommunicationDependsCreatingDirectLogicInvestmentDenyInsightIntuitionDrawingConclusionCombinationReasoningGutsExecutivesAccurateBusiness SuccessMathematicianVagueSubjectiveInterventionHiringInputFuzzyDrawing Conclusions Book:Thinking In The Future Tense Source: Thinking In The Future Tense
