15 Seconds

I had a GREAT idea for a Blog hit me at work yesterday.
I didn’t write it down, because I just knew I would…remember…
And, well….y’all know where I’m going with this.
I have NO CLUE what it was! Not even the foggy glimpse of a clue from a distance!!
I mean to tell you, it is gone. Rattle, rattle!
So I went to the gym, thinking it would hit me again.
It didn’t.
Then I made supper.
Still didn’t come back to me.
Helped the boys with homework that I was really not capable of doing.
That surely did not help it arrive.
So I went on about my business of answering E-mails and PM’s and that mean ol’ idea never did come back.
The funny thing was, I had the pen and a sticky note right in front of me when inspiration came. I VIVIDLY remember thinking, “There is no way I’m going to forget this one.”
But I didn’t take the 15 seconds it would take to write it down.
And I depended on nothing else getting in the way of my thoughts and my actions. I mean, what could distract me at work? Right?
And what was meant to be, was not.
And the time I spent thinking about it was a whole lot longer than the time it would have taken to write it down.
Just like those times when you think about someone for so long, that actually checking on them would have been quicker.
Or you worry about something so long, getting it over with would be better.
Or…and you knew this was coming…
You THINK about going to the gym or eating clean all day rather than do it. And what could be a get in, get out, and get it done thing becomes an all day dilemma.
As my favorite shoe would say, “Just do it.” Stop thinking and start doing.
And for goodness sakes, use those sticky notes. Because it really was a good idea, y’all. (I think.)

    That always happens to me. I think of great blog posts whilst doing something else, then forget most of it when I go to type it.

    I am guilty of that to. I write some great blogs in my mind at work! LOL!

    Just you wait. Another 10 years and it REALLY starts to get interesting. I’d write stuff down - IF I could remember to carry a pen & paper w/ me. ;)
