"Getting an idea should be like sitting on a pin. It should make you jump up and do something."
E. L. Simpson
An idea that doesn't lead to action is worthless. You can have all the good ideas in the world, but if you never act on them, nobody else will know about them.
There are actually two different kinds of action. This first is when you think you know what has to be done in order to acheive that result. The second is when you are clear about what you want but you don't know right away what needs to be done. In that situation, what you need to do is just keep focused on what you want to do, trust that God will figure out a way for you to do it, and then just wait quietyly for intuitive nudges, those quiet whispers in your mind, that tell you what needs to be done.
The important thing is to get started as soon as possible. Just do it. Don't procrastinate. Don't worry about finding out all the possible consequences of taking the action you want to take (which is impossible anyway). Just get started. Once you take the first few steps, the path to your goal will start getting clearer and clearer. You will gain momentum.
