First of all, you must have a minimum of 30 minutes to yourself where you won't be disturbed by anything. I mean anything. You can't have any distractions at all. No phone, no IM, no TV or radio, no people. Just yourself, alone, for a full 30 minutes.
Figure out the best place to do this wherever you are. Then you'll need to gather a few supplies:
· A blank writing pad of some sort. Almost everybody has a yellow legal pad lying around someplace. That's good enough.
· A timer of some kind. A kitchen timer is great for this-you know, the type where you twist the dial and it counts down 30 minutes. But you can also use any clock or watch with an alarm you can set 30 minutes ahead of your start time.
· A pen. I know this might sound silly, but it's important to use a pen for this exercise instead of a pencil...or a keyboard. This needs to be a handwritten exercise with a pen you can't erase. Your brain is amazing. It instinctively knows that if you use anything other than a pen, you have the option of erasing what you're writing. That's why only a pen will work.
The only way to get the most out of this technique is for your mind to:
1. Feel completely safe in spouting out what may seem to be crazy ideas. That's why you made yourself the promise to keep your ideas private.
2. Be sure that you're taking these ideas seriously and intend to bring them to life. If you're using a pencil or any other erasable writing instrument, your mind knows that you can always edit things.
Okay, let's get this out in the open right now. I know you're probably thinking, "What a bunch of mumbo-jumbo this is!" The problem with that thought is, you've probably already done this exercise and never even knew it!
Have you ever awakened in the morning with a great idea...or maybe it happened in the middle of the night while you were sleeping? It happens to some people while they're driving a long distance.
Now, if an idea just pops into your mind, where do you think that idea came from? That's exactly what we're going to do right now...tap your subconscious in a controlled way, a way that allows you to capture the ideas easily.
If you're still taking this lightly, then I recommend you find out about sub-conscious writing. A good starting point is to read anything by Natalie Goldberg, author of Writing Down the Bones. She's the acknowledged expert on this technique. Her teachings are used by just about every big-time author you can think of.
You can skip this section all together...but the ideas you'll be working with won't be as exciting to you, or as powerful to you. Frankly, they probably won't be as good either. But you can still use the rest of this book.
I do urge you to try this method, though. It's amazing how well it works when you really dive into it.
