Too Many Ideas, Not Enough Action

One of the major frustrations people have with creative types like me is that we do not follow through and "close the deal" on our commitments and ideas.  

Recently, the Action Method has helped me to follow through on the many ideas I have.  This tool increases my integrity and closes the gap between what I think/say and what I do.

The tools I use are the ActionMethod Online and the Action Journal.  If I get an iPhone, I will defiantly get the app.


Yesterday, I was at a 2-day conference full of ideas, insights and "best practices".  There were lots of items I wanted to follow up on.  If I wrote them on a piece of paper, it would get lost.  If I wrote it in a notebook, the action items would get lost in the brainstorming "I wonder if it would work" thoughts.


Here is a link to describe how the process works.


Here's a pic from my ActionJournal of the conference:
