Do these 5 actions when hit with inspiration
Why You Should (+ How to) Act IMMEDIATELY 
When Hit With Inspiration
1. WRITE IT DOWN. 
• . QUICKLY. BEFORE YOU FORGET. 
USE EVERNOTE. USE POST-ITS. 
RECORD IT… SOMEHOW!
2. DEVELOP IT. NOW. 
• DEVELOP IT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN 
WHILE THE IDEA IS FRESH IN YOUR 
MIND.
3. EDIT IT LATER. 
•DON’T WORRY ABOUT SENTENCE STRUCTURE, 
GRAMMAR, EDITING YOUR WRITING, OR EVEN 
TYPOS! GET YOUR IDEA OUT, ONTO PAPER (OR 
AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE) AS FAST AS YOU CAN. 
• THERE’LL BE TIME ENOUGH LATER FOR 
REFINEMENT.
4. RECORD YOURSELF 
•RECORD YOURSELF SPEAKING ALL OF THE THOUGHTS 
THAT ARE ENTERING YOUR MIND. IT’S NOT GOING TO 
MAKE SENSE TO ANYONE LISTENING, BUT THAT’S OKAY. 
THE RECORDING IS FOR YOU, NOT ANYONE ELSE. 
• YOU CAN PLAY IT LATER AND USE IT AS A TOOL TO 
HELP YOU ORGANIZE AND DEVELOP IT.
5. REPEAT IT TO YOURSELF 
• IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE IN THE SHOWER WHEN INSPIRATION HITS, 
REPEAT THE MAIN IDEA TO YOURSELF AND FOCUS ON IT AS 
MUCH AS POSSIBLE UNTIL YOU CAN RECORD IT OR MAKE A NOTE 
OF IT. IF YOU PREFER BATHTUBS TO SHOWERS, KEEP A PEN AND 
NOTEPAD NEXT TO THE TUB SO THAT YOU CAN CAPTURE YOUR 
GLIMMERING IDEA WHEN YOU ARE HIT WITH IT.
