Does Imagination create reality?

The parallels between Robertson's fictional "Titan" and the actual Titanic are indeed striking:

1. Both ships were similar in size (Titan: 77,000 tons; Titanic: 66,000 tons)

2. Both carried about 3,000 people

3. Both lacked sufficient lifeboats

4. Both collided with an iceberg on a cold April night

These similarities suggest an almost prophetic quality to Robertson's writing, which leads us to consider the broader implications of imagination and goal-setting:

1. The power of visualization: Robertson's detailed imagining of the Titan may have inadvertently created a blueprint that influenced reality. This underscores the importance of clearly envisioning our goals and desired outcomes.

2. Writing as manifestation: By putting his ideas to paper, Robertson gave his imagination a tangible form. This act of writing down our goals can similarly bring them closer to reality by making them more concrete and actionable.

3. Subconscious influence: Robertson's story may have indirectly influenced decisions made in the shipping industry, demonstrating how our ideas can shape the world around us in subtle ways.

4. Attention to detail: The specificity of Robertson's imagination (ship size, passenger count, lack of lifeboats) correlates with the precision often recommended in goal-setting. Being specific about our aims can help guide us toward their achievement.

5. Unintended consequences: While Robertson likely didn't intend to predict a real disaster, his story reminds us that our imaginings and goals can have far-reaching effects we may not anticipate.
