Note Pads In The Shower
Can anyone tell me why my best thoughts come when I'm lathered in soap and shampoo? Honestly, I've butchered my legs each time my terrific idea came to mind while in the middle of a shave stroke.
Actually the answer to that question is simple, really. When we're away from all the interruptions vying for our attention, when our only worries are keeping the suds out of our eyes and washing off the trail dust, our well of creativity is allowed to bubble up to the surface.
It is in the quiet pitter-patter of the water droplets on porcelain that our imagination ignites. The possibilities are endless. So why not keep note pads in the shower? I know what you're thinking, "What! Is she crazy??" Umm... yes but this isn't about me. It's about your contribution of brilliance to the world.
Perhaps wet, slimy paper isn't the solution to your creative dilemma and I'm sure your snazzy new laptop would meet an untimely end. One thing you can do though is talk about it. I mean have conversations with yourself. Right out loud in the shower! Write your visions upon the tables of your heart through your words spoken to yourself. Oh, do keep a pencil and paper handy so you can write your ideas down as soon as you've dripped dry.
The greatest inventions in history have been thought of while somebody was in the shower. Some people sing. If that's you, great! For me, I'd just be able to make a joyful noise. However you decide to get the message out to your listening self, make sure you do.
As you converse with yourself, your wonderful ideas will take on life. Tell you about your wonderful idea while you're sudsing up. Take it from me, once that idea has evaporated, there are few chances of getting it back. Don't throw your brilliance out with the bath water.
Your hopes and dreams are far too valuable to just go down the drain.
