A friend asked me how I could blog every day. How can I keep finding new content? I said I worried about the same thing – until I created a system. A system makes it easy.

First, the moment anything at all strikes me as interesting I write it down, even if it is a two word note to remind me for future use.

Second, I look for batches of blogs. One day of jury duty gave me 3 blogs about opportunity, fault, and influence. A speech for the Miami Children’s Hospital gave me 1, 2, 3, 4 blog posts.

Third, if I don’t have anything at the ready I have a dozen websites – blogs, news sites, video sites – that I look through for inspiration.

In fact, with the system I’ve never felt at a loss. And this is equally true for just about anything.

You want to build a business? What’s your system for contacting new prospects and servicing existing clients?

You want to keep a clean house? What’s your system for which rooms get cleaned and which tasks performed on what days?

You want to have more confidence? What’s your system for bolstering yourself when you would otherwise shrink?

There’s even a system for holding your breath a world record 17 minutes and 4 seconds. All it takes is a system. Piece of cake.
