#229 Do it now

How many times has a great idea come upon you only to be lost until it resurfaces years later? Resist the need to ignore your inspirations and procrastinate, no matter how big your idea, you must start. Starting can mean many things but usually the most important is to avoid your idea becoming a fleeting thought, only to be found when it is too late. A great tool I have found is to write it down. It doesn’t have to make sense, it has to exist. In competitive sports, we analyze tape to gain insight and examine strengths and weaknesses. As you can imagine, there is no tape for our thoughts which is why we must resort to writing. If our “cave ancestors” were able to discover the significance of recording our ideas, we too can harness the power of technology and document our ideas via dictation apps, etc. Don’t wait, just do it!
