TO HAVE AND TO HOLD

Another major take away from 2023:

Author David Allen says, "Your mind is for having ideas, not holding them." 

After nearly three years of daily writing, I can attest to this truth. 

Like you, I often have profound insights concerning life, work, faith, or relationships while in the shower. 

How often do they remain past stepping onto the rug to grab a towel?

Holding ideas requires writing them down.

Now that I am daily on the lookout for writing material, I do a better job of capturing my thoughts and ideas - so I can get some use out of them. And that has been a game-changer for life.

Ideas which once were fleeting, are now preserved. And more: tested and expanded by making myself write about them.

And here's the greatest testament to how useful I have found this: I couldn't break this daily writing habit if I tried.
