CREATIVE POWER - YOUR CONSTRUCTIVE FORCES - William Walker Atkinson (1922) - HQ Full Book

Volume II of the Personal Power Series by William Walker Atkinson provides instructions on building the imagination, using the imagination constructively, and the art and power of creation.

Excerpt: Imagination
In This book you are asked to consider a wonderful phase of
Personal Power which is latent, inherent and abiding within you
—the Power of Imagination. This power is a phase of your Personal
Power. Your Personal Power, in turn, is a phase of the manifestation
of that POWER which is the source of All-Power, and
which is expressed, manifested, and employed in all phases of
Power of which you have, or can possible have, any cognizance.

Excerpt: The Imaging Faculties
One of the most characteristic, essential and distinctive attributes
of your mental being is the power of producing mental images.
Without this power you would be unable to think, to remember,
to act intelligently. If your sensations did not impress themselves
upon your mind so that it was afterward possible for you to recall
them as images, you would always remain a mere infant in mental
development. Your experience would remain as a closed book to
you, and you could never hope to profit by turning over the pages
of its records. You would be no wiser at fifty years of age than
you were at three. You would have no memory, no imagination,
no power of rational thought based upon experience.
