Emily is a writer and is always writing things down. Even when she can't find paper, she scrambles to find envelopes, napkins, anything she can use to write down her thoughts. She does this because she is both realistic and disciplined enough to know humans run across too many ideas to remember all of them or even most of them. Good ideas come floating into our heads and will easily float out. Writers acknowledge they carry around a notebook so that the best of those ideas can make it to paper. You don't have to be a writer, however, to have good ideas floating through you. Keep a notebook and pen          and you will be able to hold onto those floating thoughts.
