What happened to that brilliant idea that you once had? Did you 　 36 it because you thought that it was just a little thought? Have you ever 　 37 what that little thought would have become if you had acted on your instincts (直觉) 　 38 if you had paid more attention to it?

Imagine a scene, 　 39 you are sitting at home watching television or reading a book, suddenly a light is 　 40 on in the dark tunnel of your mind as a thought or an idea crosses your mind. The thought 　 41 your attention but seems so meaningless and you are tempted to 　 42 it, but wait a minute! That thought could be the potential beginning of the 　 43 you have so mush wished for.

As the thought crosses your mind, your senses become alert and you suddenly see a possibility, a solution, or find the answer to a problem whose solution has 　 44 escaped you. It is almost as if a wise man has 　 45 the perfect solution into your ear or awakened your senses to a reality, thereby bringing light to your life. It is like finding the 　 46 piece of jigsaw puzzle (拼图游戏). This becomes an amazing moment and everything freezes around you as you excitedly try to grasp the practicality of that 　 47 but powerful thought.

Your self-confidence and enthusiasm increase as you become 　 48 of the great possibilities that can 　 49 if that little thought is acted upon. This becomes the moment to build upon that thought and to put 　 50 　 any ideas that are streaming from that little thought for later review.　 51 meaningless little thought or ideas when acted 52 have a potential to explode into great projects. Many successful projects have been 53 from the little positive thoughts that were carefully protected and recognized as bricks to great things.

Don't waste a(n) 　 54 to act on a potentially brilliant idea. You don't have to wait for a major idea, or approval from your peers in order for you to act on that little thought.

That little thought or idea is the 　 55 　 of great things if you decide to follow it through.
