A TO Z OF RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Every Friday night we watch the television show called "The Shark Tank". This show is about investors who have a lot of money and want to invest in something lucrative. These millionaires are very careful in investing because they do not want to lose money in the wrong business. This show also teaches us about what to look out for when we want to do business. I basically know most of the rules as I studied business in college. I am interested in the show because I get to see the products people come up with and ask the investors money for their ideas to change into business. I also like how people's imagination works. Most of the inventors are grown ups but are just as excited as some of the teenagers because their product was their own "brain child".
When I think of hundreds of toys, especially the smart toys only one thing comes to my mind. We would not have them if someone did not ponder and imagine them to be real. I just admire the imagination of the person who made them. So next time your child talks about his or her imaginary friend don't make fun of him or get angry at him. Go along and believe in him. He may discover something some day. Even if he does not, he will love you for believing in him.

I totally believe in letting our children have an imagination. I encourage it at every opportunity :)
Thanks for your comment on my blog Munir :)
Hi Munir,
A most thoughtful posting. And yes, a child's imagination can lead to future wonders in the world. Love and encouragement goes a long way.
Incidentally, "The Shark Tank", is based on a British show called, "The Dragon's Den".
Happy alphabeting, my friend.

Without imagination, there would be no push, no enterprise, no plan to make life better. There would be no science, literature, no fun. No useful concept, mechanical or biological, can be understood without imagination. Yet, with the decline of arts curricula, we are allowing its elimination in public schools. I suppose it's always time for change.
I'm so not imaginative..well, actually I have a very active imagination..just not for inventing things! I admire people who do invent things...things like chocolate fountains....yeah!
So it's kind of like the Dragon's Den?
So very true! A healthy imagination, nurtured in childhood, will take a person far in life.
An imagination in a child is everything!! It makes us who we are and it's one of the keys to developing a mind.
Wonderful post, Munir! Yes indeed--don't stifle a child's imaginary friend...and their imagination in the process! :-)
That's a great show to let your kids watch: it may get them going searching for feasible business ideas. :)
