CereCore^® Institute's TIP Helps Associational Thinkers Make Choices

Ever wake up in the morning with your mind on overdrive – your head bursting with ideas, concepts and better ways to do things? Then, in the next second frustration hits - you know there is no way you are going to accomplish ALL of these good ideas in one lifetime. You are not alone.

Join the many associational thinkers who experience the challenge of creative abundance everyday of their lives. To enjoy accomplishing the aspects without continual internal frustration, here is a tip - 4 simple steps - that will help you make choices based on the way you, an associational thinker... thinks.

1. Mentally picture all your ideas.
2. Look at the clock, and say the exact time to yourself. Then, ask, "Right now, at this very moment, which idea do I really want to focus on?"
3. Visualize this one idea, and this one idea only. See it. Put it right out there in front of you.
4. Arrange all the other lightning bolts on a "mental open shelf."

This is important. Your mind does not need distractions from all the other hungry ideas. They will only drain the energy you need to get into action. Remember your brain is prejudice, it thinks all your ideas are Nobel Prize winners. It doesn't understand why you can't work on all of them simultaneously. By placing the other ideas on your "mental open shelf," your brain can stop worrying (and, you know it will) that you have abandoned the others.

Focus. Visualize. Action! With this simple tip you can put all your energy toward the idea you have chosen instead of worrying about all the ones you haven't. Now you can tap your strengths as an associational thinker.

And look, you did it without making a list!
