Your Notebook

I just wanted to write a quick tip about keeping a notebook with you. I will probably end up repeating this over and over since I really believe in this one.

You need to keep a little notebook with you at all times. This serves to have somewhere to write and record your ideas. If you have the mind of an Entrepreneur or a good businessperson you will be flooded with ideas all the time. You can’t possibly remember all the good ideas that you get so get writing, carry a little journal or notebook in your pocket all the time. Here is a picture of the one I carry

Look I am so geeky that I even labeled it Ideas.

I know that if you are a beginning entrepreneur, or if you are just getting started in expanding and growing your business you feel a little nervous about what people may think. There are two ways that they can think about this:

First they can say ‘what are you doing writing things down in that stupid notebook’. Well you know what, they are the stupid ones so don’t mind them.

Second they can say ‘Whoa what is that. A notebook for ideas, what a great idea, I should get me one of those thingys’. Now you look like the businessperson that has it all together, and you know what, you do.

Get one of these, or anything that works for you. I don’t go with the leather bound fancy pocket journal because I lose them all the time. Get what works for you.
