Send us a textThe Idea Tornado. The swirl of ideas flying around in your head. You see one whiz by and before you can even reach out to grab it, here comes another one.It can be overwhelming and frustrating. Sometimes it's easier to eliminate some things and then look at the things that are left to see what bubbles up to the top. So let's weed out the things we don't need to do, to make room for the next right step.1. Use Your Purpose as a FilterI’ve talked before about how much I love Noah. He may have been the very first Project Manager. God gave Noah a very specific assignment and Noah got after it.  God told him to build an ark, and anything that did not contribute to that purpose didn’t get any space on Noah's list.Before we can prioritize ideas, we haveto know what we’retrying to accomplish.2. Stop Making DecisionWe revisit too many decisions that have already been made. Noah had a blueprint for the ark from God, and he just got busy building it according to that plan.If some of those ideas swirling by are things you've already decided and have clear direction on, let them fly on by. Stop making decisions you have already made.3. Your Biggest Issue is Your Next Right StepOur biggest issues are often the most difficult to solve. Usually we focus on the easy little things, checking quantity off our to-do list instead of quality.  Noah had a mission to build an ark. It was hard work.  Noah was single-mindedly focused on building the ark.  What is the biggest issue you need to solve? The one thing that is blocking your path and preventing progress? It may seem like there are a lot of them, but if you look closely, you will likely find one thing that everything else hinges on.Genesis 6 and 7 says repeatedly that "Noah did everything just as God commanded him." And ultimately, that is how we find our next right step.ACTION STEPI want you to reach out and tell me what that biggest issue is that you need to solve.
