Every
day we are bombarded with hundreds of passing thoughts. When we write down our
thoughts and ideas, we force ourselves to focus and be concise to determine what
is most important. If we do not learn to separate the important from the
ordinary, we will spend endless hours being busy but not produce anything
significant.
Writing
down on paper has benefits. For instance, you have to use your brain only once
having to come up with the idea once. If we do not write things down, we waste
valuable time trying to remember the genius that passed by us just hours ago!
I have
a habit of making list! I write grocery list, people to thank list, prayer
list, or even daily, weekly, monthly, yearly and long term goals list. I have a
notepad beside my bed, in the car and these days a digital notepad in my phone.
When we write down ideas that jump at us we are becoming pregnant with a
vision. When we mediate and take corresponding actions about what we write on
paper, we give birth to great dreams that were once a passing thought.
The Bible
says, “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is
yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not
lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not
tarry” (Habakkuk
2:2-3 NKJV).
In
the beginning of the year, many of us made New Year’s Resolution, we wanted to
achieve this year. Today I challenge you to dig it out and put it somewhere
where you can see, read and remind yourself daily, weekly and monthly. When you
think on paper, others will come along side you and help you achieve your dreams!
