The last few months of 2019 were manic.
In between the many tasks / balls in the air / spinning plates I’d get an idea…. usually something I didn’t have the time or energy to do anything with in the short term.
So I started a list in my iPhone notes app whenever these ideas or bursts of inspiration would appear.
Today I finally had a chance to go back through them, delete the bad ones, lay out the good ones in my notebook (which I’m gonna call my journey journal), and begin to look for the themes and connections between them.
It got me thinking about how often the best ideas come from left field.
So when and where is left field? How can I spend more time in this field and be ready to capture the inspiration when it appears?
I think for me its most likely when I’m disciplined enough to be (1) awake early in the morning, (2) exercising outdoors, and (3) not listening to music or a podcast.
Not saying filling our ears with the headphone juice is a bad thing.
I’m just noticing and learning that deliberately combining silence, nature and endorphins is a good thing.
So now I have pages full of potential energy in my journey journal. Excited to convert it into some forward movement.
