Episode 9 The Power of Writing to Clarify Your Next Big Business Idea “Learning to write is learning to think. You don’t know anything clearly unless you can state it in writing.” -- U.S. Senator S. I. Haykawa Writing makes you think things through and forces you to articulate your thoughts. Being able to see our thoughts visually also brings more clarity to our thinking. Most business owners have a natural bias for action. They undervalue the importance of setting aside time for thinking. But without thinking time, business owners just end up becoming glorified technicians. It was a great idea that launched your business in the first place.

Keep your thoughts in a safe place. Use a special file or notebook that is easy to find whenever you need it.
