There is Nothing More Powerful Than An Idea Whose Time Has Come

"There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come" is a quote attributed to the great French poet and author Victor Hugo who wrote Les Miserables.

Simply translated when the time is right nothing can stop a great idea. Money, power, armies, or force will not keep an idea from coming to fruition, from having the idea become a physical reality.  The time for America to be born as a country was ripe and the power and force of the mighty English military, the most powerful nation in the world at the time, could not defeat the fledgling, ragtag colonial militia.  Henry Ford and the automobile eliminated the horse and buggy and helped usher in American industrial excellence. Nothing could stop the physical manifestation once the idea was unleashed.

Sometimes the most important thing to do is to put the idea out there.  Once it is unleashed it becomes a force of its own.  A man on the moon, the airplane, electricity, the light bulb, the computer, the internet, universal communications via a cell phone. 25 years ago cell phones virtually did not exist.  Something as simple as Facebook, the electronic campfire that many of us gather around.

What are the next ideas whose time has come.  From a universal perspective how about peace on earth, the end of world hunger, or a car that gets a 100 miles to the gallon, or even better runs on water. On a more personal level, what ideas can we implement that will empower us.

Make a list of ideas that empower you, put them out there in the universe. Make the statement, declare your own powerful ideas whose time has come.

It all begins with asking the question and unleashing your power.
