Harnessing Your Ideas: The Power of Writing Them Down

We often get ideas at the most random times. While we’re driving, showering, reading and so on. We tell ourselves “it’s fine, I’ll remember later”. But, if we’re honest with ourselves, we won’t.

It’s such a shame when we see something and think to ourselves “hey that was my idea…” maybe it was a week ago or a year. Truth is we didn’t follow through with that idea and it was most likely because we didn’t write it down and forgot all about it.

The first time that I remember thinking something similar was when I was in high school. My friends and I were being silly and tried to dress up as funny looking as we could and go out like that for the day. Mixed matched shoes and clothing that didn’t really go together. But something one of my friends and I kept doing was wearing a plaid skirt over our skinny jeans with converse. We even showed up to summer school wearing it, I can’t recall most of the interactions I had but there was positive feedback. A little while later someone came up to me and my friend and told us someone had started copying our style. We were a little odd, we decided because it catching on we didn’t want to wear the style anymore. Fast forward a while later I saw a video, I think a music video, and in it were some girls wearing that very style. I didn’t feel any particular way about it but I did think, “huh I wonder what would have happened if I had done something with that trend.”

I really wish I could recall where I heard about this but, I remember listening to someone talk about how two celebrities would basically pop out with music as soon as they caught the hook. I believe it was through dreams that they would receive lyrics or music beats, I’m not sure about the details. Point is they understood that if they didn’t take those messages and run with it the other person would instead. It sounds silly but I actually recall a time where I woke up and remembered the lyrics from my dream and I did write it down. It’s somewhere in my notes, on another important note it is so important to stay organized with everything you write down or it just gets lost somewhere.

If you understand the truth that everything is connected through energy you may be able to understand that ideas will flow through the energetic connection. I think of these ideas as channeled messages, you aren’t the only one that receives that particular message. Others will receive it as well. That is not say, someone is going to steal your idea because at the end of the day only you will implement it in your unique image, as will they.

We hear it all the time sometimes it’s just one idea that will bring you success but unless you follow through with it, it will sit on that dusty shelf until you pick it up and dust it off with the intention of doing something with it. But before then you have to remember to write it down.
