Why a Pen and Notepad Can Get You There


“Beneath the rule of men entirely great, the pen is mightier than the sword.” Baron Lytton Richelieu

Do you ever get an idea and forget about it in the next 5 minutes? And, do you ever try to remember the idea you thought of earlier and find out that you have forgotten what it was about? Well, sorry to say, but the idea you thought of, would probably got you a million dollar. If that happened, it would be disappointing to figure out that someone who had a quite similar idea is now drinking cocktails on a beach side somewhere in the Caribbean’s because of that particular idea.

What can you do to succeed and to not forget those thoughts? Just try to follow the simple steps below, that might be insignificant as you might read right now, but believe me, they are important, and can get you rewards that you never thought of.

1. You should not feel bad for not recalling the idea.

That idea was probably a lot of money to let go of. However, the only thing you can do about it now is learn from you past mistake. I think the saying is, “what doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger.” It is a bit of a cliché but it will suffice. Therefore, the answer to fixing your past mistake of not remembering your million dollar idea is priority.

2. Carry around a pen and notepad with you wherever you go.

Take those two life changing tools everywhere! This is an important course of action and you need to make it work. If one day you achieve the action of placing a pen and notepad in your pocket and finally make it a routine, you increase your odds of finding your financial dream and freedom. But, those odds can further increase in size.

3. Every time you have an idea, write it down.

Do not be lazy and hold it off for later notation because you will once again be one with that bad habit. And if you decided to further that bad habit, I hope that you see a person with that same idea as yours making a ton of money. This is only because that occurrence will drive you to write down all your ideas into the notepad.

4. Make them work.

One more thing to bring it up is that you should put the ideas you have in your notepad to work. No idea will make you money if they are not put into a state of making money. Most of the time the conscious thought about making money will not make you money. You also need to visualize what you want on a paper. Anyways, you have to actually sit down with your potential money making idea and see the steps it will take to achieve your goal of getting those money.

Overall, without any ideas that can potentially bring you wealth, there will be no money. If you have an army of ideas in that notepad of yours, you will probably have some extravagant future to look forward to. The more ideas you have to work with, the better your odds are of becoming rich. It makes logical sense. Think about it.

Carry around a pen and notepad with you wherever you go!

    Hi Michael,

    I found you via ZenHabits. And I subscribe immediately reading some of your articles :)

    Personally, I’m using the voice recorder function on my cellphone. I make it in such a way that a simple movement of the joystick will launch the application and I can record any idea instantly.

    The only problem with this approach is that I will have to routinely download all my recordings to my laptop or rewrite it on a notepad :) I know redundant, but my notepad always disappear especially when I needed it.
