How To Monetize Your Ideas

Whether you realise it or not, your life is full of ‘clutter’…full of those little things that keep nagging at you in the back of your mind.

Take me for example. I KNOW that I have to paint the front of my house, yet for the last two years I have known this and not done anything about it. And every year it looks worse.

‘So What?’ you might say.  Well, every time (in the Summer anyway), I go into my house
I think to myself ‘I’ll have to paint that this year’. Every time.

You might think that this is not a big deal…but what about all of the others - such as cutting the grass, clearing the garage, decorating the bathroom, writing to a friend etc.

These thoughts clutter up your mind’s real estate. They get in the way of more productive thinking. So this year I’m going to get the paint out, and make room for something more productive.

What clutter can you clear - starting this weekend?

Make a list of all of those little ‘odd-jobs’ that you have left…meaning to get around to doing ‘when you have the time’.

Now - without any prioritizing whatsoever - go and do the first thing on your list. Then the next…and so on. DON’T skip over one…if it’s on the list - it needs doing - so just go and do it!

You won’t regret that feeling of achievement after you’ve done them all - I guarantee it!
