Earlier I posed the question, "Can Napping Help Business?"-asking if folks thought taking a little mid-afternoon snooze could actually be a benefit to running a home business. Along the same vein, I'm interested in exploring whether or not fantasizing and daydreaming can help a person in their business operations? I'm inclined to belief that day dreaming is a good thing-spurring creativity and providing motivation and a fresh perspective...

The great thing about a little day dreaming is that it helps us adults think beyond the hum drum of the everyday. It's easy enough to get bogged down in details and realities, but harder, I think, for grown-ups to let their minds wander and tap into some of the creative power of day dreaming. Not to mention, I think day dreaming can be almost as rejuvenating and refreshing as taking that midday nap!

Many experts suggest that visualization and positive thinking is the key to making changes and achieving goals. If this is true, then I think day dreaming definitely counts as "visualization." My imagining how things "could" be and how we'd like to be, or picturing ourselves achieving our goals, making the big sale, writing the great novel, etc.-I believe we're actually helping ourselves to visualize a positive future and stay motivated.

Of course, everything in moderation. I imagine a person could spend so much time day dreaming and drifting off into fantasy that he or she didn't get much accomplished. Like those warm spring days when we were kids in school and we'd become totally distracted by the sunny, beckoning world outside the school room window, I guess a person could let their "visualization" distract themselves from getting work done. But, I think a little day dreaming goes a long way in keeping us working at our businesses and moving toward the future we've been dreaming of!
