And then it hit me…the concept of lucidity in the moment.

On the day I wrote this, I was relaxing and having a cup of coffee when it became very clear that I had missed various opportunities in life because of my lack of ability to leverage my lucidity; the method of transforming a particular moment of self-evident clarity into a concrete reality instead of a dream to have or a fleeting thought.

Did you ever experience instances, minute periods of time, where everything (and I mean everything) became clear to you? Clear to the point where you were positive that you understood everything at once, and that you were light years ahead in your own thought than ever before? Then, only to find out sometime later, that you couldn’t seem to remember what you were thinking about at all, or recall anything that you previously seemed to have a total grasp on?

These particular moments are known as total lucidity, and it is these moments in life that the majority of people do not cash in on. It is the moment in time, that must somehow be captured in order for you to achieve maximum potential of your own ideas and intellect!

Believe it or not, the amazing thing is, these periods of total lucidity happen quite frequently and on an almost daily basis for everyone. The trick is to be cognizant, or aware of when it happens, and then, at that moment, seize it in order to adapt it to your benefit. The ability to do this is what separates the average person from those who become successful, not just monetarily, but also spiritually, physically and mentally.

Upon reflection, there were many times in my life that I had these moments of lucidity; unaware of how to capture them, and, unfortunately, letting them flee just as quick as the instant in which they surfaced.

During times of total lucidity, I would convince myself that I would remember it all and be able to follow through on it later, or be able to recall it immediately, whatever “it” was, when needed. The sad truth is, for the majority of us, our minds do not naturally think this way.

Hence, the necessity of capitalizing on episodes of “lucidity in the moment” became evident.

To capitalize on these moments you must learn to leverage your lucidity:

A singularly personalized process by which you act on these moments of lucidity, these ideas and soon to be fleeting thoughts, in order to capture them so that they can be transformed into knowledge-based realities that will give you an edge on success for a lifetime. To be more precise, it is a personal and temporary access to the universal pool of knowledge that has eluded the majority of humandkind.
