100 Idea Sparkers

"Doing Nothing, Get's You Nothing." - Sean Reichele

One of my challenges is that I spend a lot of time in my head, thinking and over thinking things. I have come to understand that there is a time to think and then there is a time to take action. If you are like me, perhaps you struggle with this too. You have great ideas, you think about them, analyze them, perhaps even write them down and then.... nothing.

An idea is waiting to be put into action. According to Bruce Lee, " If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you will never get it done."  How true is this? Think right now about all the ideas you have, that you have thought about time and time again. Now ask yourself how many of those ideas have you put into action? Go one step further and ask yourself why haven't you done anything with these ideas?

 ideas+ action= progress

To move from one place to another in life, we have to take action in order to get to where we want to go. So whether it is starting a new business, applying for a great job, improving your relationship, saving money, or taking time for yourself; you can only think about an idea for so long. There comes a time when you have to take the steps necessary for real change or progress to occur.

In addition to seeing change and progress happen, putting your ideas into action moves you from the place of wishing and dreaming into a place of doing and achieving. When ideas are put into motion, momentum starts to build, new ideas are created, confidence increases and new opportunities are presented that we could have never imagined.

As I stated at the beginning of this post, staying in my head too much is a challenge. In an attempt to put more action into my life, I created a list of personal/business ideas that I am going to act on.

In the process of creating my list, I came up with 100 Idea Sparkers that I hope you will find useful. There are a variety of ideas covering different areas of life, some of which are also on my list. The ideas can be adjusted to fit you, your life and your goals. Also, add your own ideas to the list, but above all take action.
