Write While the Iron is Hot

While a call to action is definitive in the search for success, when the fire in you has risen and the heat is raging it is important to take an objective look at yourself and your situation. You must be able to step back and view the possibilities. Although passion is an invaluable asset for which we all yearn, it can also fuel a train on it's way to a wreck, sometimes blinding us to the possibilities before us.

We must also take note of our moments of passion because we may not experience that same mindset ever again, not to say that we won't experience a similar level of passion but certainly not in the same moment and under the same circumstances. This is why it is vital to take down our thoughts and feelings at that time, as this recording of our most exciting spiritual moments has a way of prolonging them.

"Write while the heat is in you. The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience."
- Henry David Thoreau
