A key question that I am always asked is how do you decide what Great Ideas to pursue and in what order? I actually made a video related this which is on my YouTube Channel, which I will share later, but here are the 5 most important elements to help you to evaluate your Great Ideas this month:
Step One: Get out of your office, and if you work at home, switch rooms. I go up to my sunny third floor "Nantucket" guest room and my mind lights up with new perspectives. Clear your calendar for a whole day (I mean it) and only look at your phone when ABSOLUTELY necessary. (Did you know that the average worker now checks his/her phone over 100 times a day???? Yikes--no wonder we can't focus!) Bring with you pieces of writing, materials, prompts, etc. that represent your Great Ideas--all of them. Write each idea on an attractive notecard or make an Evernote folder (or use whatever technology works best for you), but make sure that you can move your Great Ideas around and change the order.
