getting in your head, or ears

When it comes to thinking about, not the playing of Jazz improvisation, what is the first theoretical thought that comes to mind? Do you visualize or hear a particular riff, pattern, chord progression, chord structure, specific scale, sound, etc.. I don't know if I'll ever reach my desire to improvise in the old Bop style, but I'd love to have an idea what musical thought goes through the head of the capable. This has been a hard question for me to put together, and to ask. I'll understand if there are no replies. Be kind.........tom
