This One Idea Can Change Your Life Forever
IDEAS are the fruits of your thinking.
One idea can change your life.
The aprk of thought thought that sets you on a new path.
The spark of thought that gets you to develop a new product.
The spark of thought that suggests a marketing breakthrough.
But they’ve got to be harnessed and put to work to have value.
Each year an oak tree produces enough acorns to populate a good sized forest. Yet from these seeds perhaps one or two acorns will become a tree. The squirrels destroy most of them and the hard ground beneath the tree doesn’t give the others much chance.
And so it is with ideas. Very few bear fruit. Ideas are highly perishable. If you’re not on-guard from the squirrels (negative thinking people and your own negative thoughts) will destroy them. Ideas require special handling from the time they are born until they are transformed into practical ways for doing things.
Use these 3 ideas to harness and develop ideas:
1. CAPTURE THEM. Earl Nightingale said “Ideas are like slippery fish. If you don’t ‘spear’ them with a pencil they will escape.” Ideas will come to you at all sorts of times. They’ll just ‘pop’ into your head when driving, having a shower, a beer or wherever. BUT, they don’t last long. If you don’t record them your mind WILL forget them. Keep a notebook with you at all times and WRITE them down. If you don’t, the fruits of your thinking will disappear . . .
2. Next, review your ideas. Store them where you can find them. If you only create ONE idea a day, within a year you will have more ideas than mot people record in a lifetime . . . Review your ideas . . . You NEVER know when just ONE will change your life.
3. Fertilise your ideas. Now make your ideas grow. Think about them, attach them to other ideas. Read everything you can about your ideas. Discuss your ideas with other. And when the time is right, put them to work in your business and your life.
And be sure of this.
Ideas arise when you are exposed to new thinking, new people, things outside your comfort zone. People NOT in your industry, people who have SOLVED your problems before.
Attaching yourself to other people will similar goals and dreams as you acts as the fire to create the SPARKS of new ideas you can use to benefit your clients, yourself, your family and friends.
You need to rub shoulders with other success hungry people. Associate with people outside your core interests – doing so will illuminate the BIG picture.
Dedicated to others success,

Just remember this: a lot of people that teach at Harvard, or Cambridge, etc., did not (initially) go to school there. It sounds like you will do just fine at whatever college you go to, and then can possibly transfer or take graduate studies. You might wind up teaching AT Cambridge!

I didn’t have the experience when was a teenager because I lacked the education but as a woman I begun inventing and the waiting between ‘news’ when first started was very difficult to deal with. Constantly on my mind etc, waiting by the phone. Time taught me patience there. I, by chance started on another project too while waiting to hear the news and that was the best thing I could do. Not only did it help take the first project off my mind but it was my fallback for a huge disapointment (I was scammed) yet it was the beginning of many other positive things because it taught me to do things for myself in which I went on and did.
How about creating something to help with keeping things off your mind. Something positive so if there is a disapointment to come you have another thing to keep you positive-hopeful.
I wish you luck xxx

Ask yourself how many happy people never went to Cambridge.
I’ll bet there are so many that you can’t count them all.
Feel better now?
Cambridge is not "THE" key to happiness; it’s a "POSSIBLE" key to happiness. There are many "OTHER" keys to hapiness out there.
When placed in a POOL, you can choose to sink or swim. Assuming you will choose to swim, keep in mind that you can swim toward one of those other colleges at the university, or swim in another direction altogether; that is, away from Cambridge.
During my years in life, I often learned that a direction I was headed in wasn’t always the best direction for me. And when it wasn’t, I usually ran into barriers. Initially, I tried to navigate through the barriers; later I learned that there was a message there. So, I looked for another direction that seemed to allow me to move forward more easily. Travelling in those other directions brought me to my current and happy existence. I didn’t get here because I was a big shot, or a hot shot. I got here by giving it what I viewed as my best shot.
So, my message to you is that you shouldn’t be discouraged. Things happen for a reason. Maybe you weren’t meant to go to Cambridge. I know I wasn’t. If you are meant to go there, the gate will open for you. If not, then it won’t.
Just take it a day at a time. Happiness is just around the corner. Go with the flow. And the flow doesn’t have to be Cambridge.
If you had a choice between Cambridge and endless struggle, and another path and endless happiness, what would you want?
Well, the choice is yours, just as my choice was mine. And incidentally, I’m a high school drop out. I never had a great job, never made much money, and never planned much for the future. In spite of it all, I’m now retired, have enough money to meet my needs, and in another four years, when social security kicks in, my income will be three times what I need to live on comfortably (well, what I consider comfortable). I currently live in a condo in Maryland (paid for) but want to sell it and move to an apartment in Florida in another 4 years. Then, all I’ll do is eat, sleep, exercise, and drives to the seemingly endless beaches for fun walks on the shores.
And, as incredible as it may seem, I got to this point without Cambridge. So don’t fret; just take it a day at a time. Happiness is just around the corner.
