When there&#8217;s no energy, there are no ideas. Or if they are suggested they don&#8217;t sound good, have been tried before and really, what&#8217;s the use anyway?<\/p>\n<p>But one good idea can change all that. If it&#8217;s a big idea it changes everything, drastically.<\/p>\n<p>The person with multiple ideas, popping out all the time, is nothing but energized. For him there&#8217;s no time for <em>what&#8217;s the use?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But where do ideas come from? It&#8217;s a mystery to me. Usually there&#8217;s context,\u00a0some sort of problem solving that&#8217;s been going on in the mind. If you&#8217;re asked to explain where you got some idea you&#8217;ll likely tell of how you heard something or saw something, or were looking for something else and found this.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s sort of a mini-miracle, like a birth.<\/p>\n<p>The brown dirt mysteriously pushes up green plants, but only when some seed has fallen into it.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s a science to it, one that&#8217;s been studied and written all about. But even then it&#8217;s\u00a0a wonder. In the end we&#8217;re left with, \u201cI don&#8217;t know; I just thought of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s answer enough . . . because it happens to all of us.<\/p>\n<p>When it does, it makes us happy, pulls us out of our slump and, like I said, supplies all the energy we need.<\/p>\n<p>And life, at its essence, is energy.<\/p>\n<p>But that&#8217;s another topic. For now, let the mind flow. Keep seeding the garden. The time will shortly come when you have not a minute to rest.<\/p>\n<p>And you&#8217;ll love it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Out of gas? Get thinking.
