Epiphany...what, where and how???

7 replies
If you have made a big hit with a product, idea, strategy etc..., where were you? what was your mindset? what do you think prompted the epiphany you had? Was it a sudden vision? or was it just plain old " pounding the rock " utilizing basic sound fundamentals that lead you to your big money maker? Even if it was a past quick hitting fad that has passed but you made a killing on.

    It kind of happened without realizing it at the time. I was just trying to get a better way to exchange links and track progress, and I ended up creating a tool that thousands have used over the years.

    It is okay to contact me! I have been developing software since 1999, creating many popular products like phpLD.

        My best ideas come AFTER my left brain lets it go. I have an idea, but I
        don't know how I'm going to implement it. So I just let it go and suddenly
        the answer or solution comes while I'm in the shower or walking.

        The best part is when I get confirmation from the universe that the answer
        or solution will work. For example, I need info to implement something and
        suddenly it appears in my email inbox!

    The idea was so awesome that I left her to grab my cell phone and write the idea down. Imagine that!
