Written by the Disney Imagineers in 2003, The Imagineering Way: Ideas to Ignite Your Creativity<\/em>\u00a0is full of excellent tips for someone who longs to have the wonderful career the authors have.\u00a0 Certain Imagineers write in detail about their valuable stories and how they and others have\u00a0benefited from their experiences.\u00a0 Others, though,\u00a0have simply written a few paragraphs telling how using a certain idea\u00a0may help future Imagineers.\u00a0 This non-fiction work teaches that everybody is creative and bad ideas do not exist.<\/p>\n

First, The Imagineering Way<\/em> teaches that everybody is creative.\u00a0 However, many people are not tuned in to their ingenuity or are too afraid to show it.\u00a0 They \u201cnever allow their creative abilities to surface because they fear what might happen.\u201d (9) Most people are afraid that if they let out their imaginations, their ideas will be either silly,\u00a0failures, or cause others\u00a0to think badly about them.\u00a0 However, the worst thought that many people fear is that they are not creative.<\/p>\n

Because of this long list of fears, most people do not do anything.\u00a0 Fear is the\u00a0ruthless foe\u00a0of imagination.\u00a0 No one should wonder why another person is so creative.\u00a0 Most likely, they could be just as inventive, if not more so, if they would use their unique skills.\u00a0 Also, people should expect\u00a0to try multiple times before achieving perfection.\u00a0 In some way or another, whether they know it or not, everybody is creative.<\/p>\n

This book also teaches readers that bad ideas do not exist.\u00a0 If an Imagineer has an idea, even though it may sound childish or ridiculous, he always shares it with the rest of the group.\u00a0 As the book says many times, \u201cIn the lexicon of youth, there is no such word as \u2018fail.\u2019\u201d (5)<\/p>\n

Any idea can be made better.\u00a0 Sometimes it will only spark an idea into another person\u2019s head.\u00a0 Either way, the useful idea becomes exceptional because of its results, demonstrating that even a ridiculous idea is\u00a0not a failure.\u00a0 Throughout the entire book, the authors constantly remind the reader \u201cthat no idea \u2013 no matter how \u2018dumb\u2019 it may sound \u2013 is a bad idea.\u201d (205)<\/p>\n

Anybody can allow themselves to become creative, and every idea is a worthwhile one.\u00a0 This well-written guide to Imagineering constantly speaks of how seemingly impractical ideas can lead to wonderful attractions, because the Imagineers banned the word fear and used their imagination, not hesitating to share even the dumbest sounding ideas.\u00a0 A helpful book, The Imagineering Way<\/em> can turn timid people into inventive Disney\u00a0Imagineers.<\/p>\n
