Before I dive into this post watch these videos on Brian Crack and waves. If you have not seen these videos STOP READING THIS POST AND WATCH THEM! Yes, Brian Crack is that important!
To help you digest this video, let’s think about it. You have this idea, which spawns off a bunch of other ideas, but after an hour of writing these ideas you really have NOTHING. A great example of going from idea to taking action was a great brunch meeting I had with Jim Hopkinson. The meeting mainly talked about one project, but during this talk spawned off a bunch of ideas and how you need not only an idea, but execution. This whole meeting just kept reminding me of the video and the need to get $%&T DONE! Just remember the nike slogan, just do it! Well rather then doing nothing with the idea we ended up taking the idea and creating a basic website that could now get easily updated using WordPress and go from an idea to a shell.
One thing that I have realized with projects is you need to focus on building shells. What are shells, shells are the basic structure you need to go from idea to prototype as fast as possible. Think about a shell as creating the smallest piece of an ideas to get others to either use it or understand what it is you are doing. Once the shell is built and live, you can constaly launch, iterate, launch, iterate, and go from a crapy version to a premium product.
So while rewatching the video I realize I am now that other guy who is on his next version of a product rather then dreaming about all those people clapping for ME!
So the point of all of this is that you need to get ideas out of your head and into the world, remember it’s the execution multiplier that makes the big bucks, do it!
I know personally I am trying to take more and more action each day to improve my passive income. I have too many ideas a minute and too many projects that are collecting dust to keep me from taking action. So each morning I write a list of 3 goals for the day that I need to get done. These goals can be as simple as creating a blog posts to something as complex as a WordPress theme.
Remember, taking action is hard. Like Thomas Edison, “one percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration”. So break an idea/project into small chunks and start with just the “shell” the smallest piece of an idea and launch, iterate, launch, iterate…
