For me it is easy to get inspired and to get overwhelmed by all that inspiration by all the possibilities there are; so many things we can do with our businesses, our lives, and ourselves. Quickly I end up in overwhelm where nothing gets done, and I am just squandering my time and the brief high from inspiration that is quickly fading.

So, maybe you suffer something similar a fast and great high but a horrible crash with nothing to show. The solution I am finding is first to limit your inspiration. It is a funny thing to say I know but I have found when I get to excited to much positive input it usually pulls me so far away from the focus point that I need be at that I end up loosing myself and taking days to find my way back to where I began. Second bring big inspiration in to small spoonful’s and then move methodically forward. I sometimes refer to both of these methods as putting blinders on, again this advice or system seems very counter-intuitive but I have found it most helpful. It is like taking out the telescope at night, you can’t see as much of the sky but what you do see is that much closer, that much more defined.

So go get inspired, pick a couple of focal points and then move toward them, and leave the other amazing stuff on the sidelines at least for right now.
