3 Benefits Of Writing Your Thoughts Down For Worship Leaders
As a worship leader, you probably have a lot of thoughts bouncing around in your head. There are so many different things that you can do and these thoughts pop into your head without any advanced notice. Everything from speaking transitions to song lyrics to prayers to vision for your team - it's easy for those things to stay in your head.
But, it's more beneficial to take the time to write your thoughts down than to simply keep them in your head.
Here are 3 benefits of writing your thoughts down for worship leaders:
1 | It helps you FORMULATE
Writing things down is a crucial part of formulating ideas. It's not just about getting the thoughts in your head written down - it's about thinking how you can best communicate them. It's about seeing how they all work together. There's something different between thinking about something and writing it down. Writing something down forces you to take your idea one step further - not just crafting the words you're writing but crafting the idea itself.
2 | It helps you REMEMBER
Writing things down is scientifically proven to help you remember things better. Can you see how that might be beneficial to you as a worship leader? Everything from remembering speaking transitions to lyrics to chords - if you want to remember it, write it down!
3 | It helps you BELIEVE
It takes more commitment to write something down than it does to simply think about something and toss it around in your head. When you write it down, you make it concrete - it's visible and tangible. Do you have something that you need to more fully believe? Stop just thinking about it; write it down!
I believe so much in writing things down that I recommend it as a core part of the process of going through a new devotional I just put out called 30 Days To Leading Worship Well: A Practical Devotional For Worship Leaders. It's one thing to think about the questions you work through in this devotional. It's a whole other thing to craft your answers as you write them down.
