You could call me an alchemist. I know how take an idea and make it manifest in the real world.

It isn’t really any big secret – the how to that is. And there are only two things you need to make the magic happen.

• A positive mindset – or as I like to call it, good mind soil. Ideas are thought seeds and need a nourishing environment to grow in.
• And a willingness to take action – daily. Seeds can’t grow without water.

From there everything grows and grows and grows until it outgrows even you.

Because you see, that idea you have – that one that you think is ‘yours’? – It isn’t yours.

That idea is a living entity separate from you, and it wants to grow, be, and become even more than you want it to.

If you don’t nourish the idea, someone else will. And when the idea does appear in the real world you’ll find yourself saying “Hey, that was my idea! That’s not fair. I could have made millions.”

Could of… but you didn’t. Because you didn’t realize that the idea doesn’t die with you. It just finds a more willing host.

But don’t worry too much if you missed the first few hundred ideas that popped into your mind. They are, after all, floating around everywhere.

Here’s to hoping you find your very own Midas Touch!
