Half of something is still nothing overall

If you come across an idea you are half-way there. But if you don’t do anything with your ideas nothing will happen, ever.

Even if it’s a really great idea, zero action means nothing will happen. One times zero is still zero.

Get your ideas out

Bring them out and do something with it! Pull out your notebook, dust off your notepad, find your notes. Then test them, try something out, talk to people, simulate stuff.

Anything is better than nothing.

Your invisible prison

The other day I was in an aquarium. Don’t judge me, it was the only thing to do in that place. I watched the different species of fish for a while and pretended to be interested in the facts provided on the information boards.

On the way out I looked at a giant shark tank – a real shark tank, not the TV show. I thought: “Poor animals, they are not free to go where they want.” A blink of an eye later my train of thought came to a ear-numbingly screeching halt at another thought: am I really free?

We all might live in our own invisible prison: the walls made of limiting beliefs, work or personal situation. The bed is made out of a foul mood or bad habits.

How do you break free of your own prison?

  • Firstly you need to realise that you are stuck or in a bad spot.
  • Then you have to have the will to change it.

The key to leave your own prison is your mindset: if you can change it you can change your approach to things. Remove limiting beliefs, change the situation you are in. Improve your mood and replace bad habits with good ones.
