Simplified meaning
Imagination works like any other muscle in your body. If you don't use your arm or leg muscles, they become weak. In the same way, if you don't use your imagination, it will become less powerful. For example, think about children who spend their time playing with toys and creating stories. They keep their imagination strong and active. On the other hand, adults who stop daydreaming or thinking creatively might find it harder to come up with new ideas. To keep your imagination strong, you need to engage in activities like reading, writing, or solving puzzles. This way, your creative thinking stays sharp and healthy.
