Ever get an idea that is so good, it's like your brain lights up like a light-bulb? An idea, that you are sure will satisfy many? Maybe it was an idea for an invention that would make you millions. Maybe it was an idea to improve an existing product. Maybe it was just a good idea to write a book about. Whatever the case, I often feel as if the light has just turned on in my head, and I am struck with creativity. Does this ever happen to you?

I usually write my ideas down, before I forget them or get discouraged in some way.

Yes dear, we all have that. It seems thoughts are actually material things and in our not so evolved yet situation, we are very material so we can't see it but it will enter our minds and if we don't act as soon as we receive it will go to another, the universe sends it to the person that is able to make it materially real in this world but if we don't listen to it it naturally goes to another, that's why I've seen great ideas of mine becoming reality and couldn't believe someone thought the same thing, and how I thought it was stupid like days later and then seeing it a reality I regretted. I think nowadays I act upon any idea I have. We don't even have the time to think it's stupid, we will cause our subconscience is negative, a child already heard 5000s 'no' by the age of 5 and that's terrible for how we see ourselves' worthness.

Because no is the only word they seem to respond to. This should not limit their creativity.

when I am bored and thinking of something to do and suddenly I think of one, yeah my head feels like a lighted bulb and I cant stand it if I am not able to do it immediately. I am kind of an obsessive compulsive gal so I want to do things the way I think of it

Nothing wrong with striving for the best. If I wrote a book, I would most likely self publish, because I would want it to remain the way I wrote it.

I always feel something like a bulb lights up on my head whenever I accidentally think of a topic for a new book. It has been years that I am planning to quit my profession and indulge myself on freelance writing. I have thought of numerous kinds of book that will tackle my profession on a different light. But I never really had to chance to start seriously. From time to time, I would jot down notes or scribble something. But there's all there is. I never had the time to consolidate the ideas.

On occasion, I seem to. I actually try to keep any and all of my ideas, potential prospects, etc., written on note cards and filed for access later. It's hard to say whether or not any of them are "good", though.

A card filing system is a great idea. I use to use this for any and all ideas related to writing.
