It was a Tuesday afternoon. You were visiting the local coffee shop Sipping on your cold brew And like magic... It happened. You and an IDEA totally connected. You didn’t see that coming. Barely anyone noticed. But the chemistry was undeniable. Congratulations! How exciting! Now, I bet you’re wondering... What’s next? I know I would be! My advice - Date your idea. Give it a chance. Spend some time with it. Get to know it a little better. Be open to the possibility that this could really be something. Date your idea. It’s okay to write down how you really feel about it. Fill your diary with little hearts and doodles. No judgement (we all do it) That’s part of the fun! Date your idea. Have you noticed any good signs?
Any red flags? Go ahead - write those down too. Both are very important to consider. Date your idea. Now, I know you two have been spending a lot of time together… I mean, you haven’t been apart for more than an hour. Try not to get so attached that it clouds your better judgement. Talk about it with trusted friends & mentors. Date your idea. Listen - I really hope it works out! I mean that. But there is also a chance that it won’t. And that’s okay too. I promise another one will come along Right when you least expect it. And when it does, you should date that one too! We can’t predict the future. We never know what our ideas will become. So let's keep dating them, and remaining open to the possibility that with lots of time, effort and attention, they could really turn into something special! (Date Your Idea written by Stasia Rose) |
