I’ve always been the type to either grab an app or go old school with pen and paper to break things down. I list the task, split it into bite-sized pieces, and map out how to get it done. Honestly? It feels like therapy. The more I unload from my head onto the page, the more ideas seem to show up—like they’ve just been waiting for the space.

Now, here’s the catch—if your brain works like mine, you’ll know that once it sees all those ideas in one place, it doesn’t stop. Suddenly you’ve got a full-blown web of to-dos that somehow grew from one innocent bullet point. It's chaotic, yes—but in a strangely satisfying, high-functioning way. It’s a beautiful kind of mess that reminds me: I’m a creative machine.

Now, take that same energy and apply it to your curiosity. You get sparked by something—a business idea, a hobby, a passing interest—and you want to dive in. But how often do you actually know where to begin? Or even if you should begin?

For me? It’s a mystery 8 times out of 10.
But I’ve found a way to work around that mental fog—and I’m handing it to you next:

Step 1: Start with questions.
“What do I feel like today?”
“What's attracting me?”
“Am I excited about it?”
What is that thought? Thought of running a few laps, or building your website, or making content for your socials, or cooking, etc.?

Step 2: Make a blueprint of your day.
What would your day look like if you were fulfilling your curiosity?
Interesting cue - Think of it as your alter universe reality.

Step 3: Get a plan together.
Don't overwhelm yourself. Start small - always. Start with today. Extend the plan to tomorrow, tomorrow or at midnight today.

Step 4: Check in with yourself after a few hours.
How do you feel now after doing that activity that was making you curious or excited?

Step 5: Perform a mental gauge.
Would you want to do this again tomorrow? Is this something that you would want to talk about? Do you feel that itch to continue with it?

Step 6: If your answer is ‘Yes’ to Step 5 -
Bring it down to paper or an app - whichever is more comfortable for you. How can you build it further?

The key is to look at small signs and build from there. But you are going to have your eyes wide open for it to work.

With love always,
Sonal ☺️
