The Center for Imaginative Action: December 2011

The Center for Imaginative Action. Take the next step.

Imaginative action is focused in the present and works with the untapped imaginative forces within all of us. At The Center for Imaginative Action we guide clients toward a fresh future of their own choosing.

The needs of our clients vary from people who are looking to invent or reinvent themselves, to those that desire a more meaningful life, to clients who choose toå retreat to Florence, Italy, a center of genius and the imagination, and away from the work-a-day world for transformation and renewal.

We dull our lives by the way we conceive them. We have stopped imagining them with any sort of romance, any fictional flair. -James Hillman in The Soul's Code.

My New Favorite Quote

This is a statement made by one of Carl Jung's closest associates Marie Von Franz. It is a calling cry for the importance of inner fitness.

Jung often maintained that if one had in himself only 3% of all the evil one sees in the other fellow, or projects onto him, and the other fellow possessed in fact the other 97%, it would still be wiser to look one's own 3% in the eye, because as is well known, it is only in oneself that one can change anything, almost never in others."
