Think It Then Ink It
What does think it then ink it mean? Well, no doubt you have had an ah-ha moment in the shower, driving, exercising, or just about any time. That hunch was probably a million-dollar idea. Or it got you closer to your goal. That moment of brilliance popped into your head and if you don’t write it down it could be lost forever.
Studies show that ideas flash into your head and are gone in about 8 seconds. In about 8 minutes the idea is lost completely. You know the feeling. You are working on a project and you are stuck. Then while you are engaged in another activity an idea hits you. It’s pure genius. You say you will remember. Boom 30 seconds you got distracted and it is gone.
Frustration abounds as you try to remember. Should have written it down. Your mind moves so fast, that thoughts come and go at warp speed. This is when you implement Think It Then Ink It. I found this method after reading a copy of books on self-improvement. A couple of pages about writing things down has helped me achieve my goals.
Make it a habit of writing things down. Writing things down gets it out of your head. It calms your mind. Plus writing it down brings your imagination into reality. The physical part of writing it down gives it creditability and you are visually seeing your ideas.
Three things happen when you record your ah-ha moments:
- You Physically Make it Real
- You Visually see it in Reality
