Personal Framework Towards Activating Self.

There is no one in the world that doesn't have an idea. Our biggest difference is in the thought process and how we activate ourselves. Time will always remain to be time but your thoughts are bound to change with time. I have been wondering, how many thoughts can a person generate in a day until I 'Googled' the same question and I found that the average person at least has 6,000 thoughts generated in a single day. Note, there are other scientific research on the same topic just Google! 

So it means if I go with at least 6,000 thoughts a day it means in a year a person can generate 2,190,000 (6,000 * 365 days) thoughts which includes the negatives and positives. I believe before an idea is born, the first stage is the thought process which if captured well can turn into an idea. This is my framework in everything that I do or have done successfully 🙂 Thoughts > Ideas > Research > Design, Prototype > Evaluate 

So don't let 2021 be clouded with negative thoughts or let all this thought process pass as you watch, activate yourself and capture at least one positive thought process which you can process to the next level. Below is a detail account of what I mean:- 

 THOUGHTS :- Some would call it brainstorming, but either you organize yourself or not it will still take place. Think of this stage as; Not sure, things happen fast, uncertainty, visibility of opportunity, comfort zone, observation, past experiences emerge, etc. \

IDEAS: - Some possibility of what you can do or can't do, The 5W's and 1H, comparison, analysis, hypothesis etc. 

RESEARCH:- Go online, on the ground, findings, visit new or old places, talks to possible partners etc.  

DESIGN: - Mostly here I will think of the Business Model Canvas to capture everything.

PROTOTYPE: - Running the first pilot, pick lessons, etc. Here is more action while I test.

EVALUATE: - Get an analysis of what worked well, what didn't work, areas to fix in the next phase, etc. At this stage I might jump into either of the above.

  •  "What people tell you about yourself is important, but what you tell yourself determines your next call to action." Wilson Masaka Youth Advocate / Social Entrepreneur.
To protect my emotions and thought process I have decided the following:- 

1. Watch movies or TV programs that will encourage me towards achieving my goals in life. 
2. Read books or content that builds value into what I want to achieve or be in life. 
3. Hangout with friends who think growth and positivity while embracing a shared value. 
4. Look at life as a journey with its destination only known by the almighty God. Seek more intervention through prayers that will eventually build my inner strength and courage to tackle any uncertainty. 
5. Organize my thought process by staying alert in identifying the negatives and positives.
