Take Every Thought Captive

Write things down, start a journal, tell Siri to make a note, make a video with the ideas you have, take a screenshot, or type out thoughts in the notes app on your phone, you could even tell Google to remind you when you wake up…and then write it down. Do whatever you need to do to make sure you don’t lose ideas! To be honest I’ve done all of the above at one point. Even if you look back on these privately captured ideas, and not all of them are great it shouldn’t keep you from writing everything down.

If you take every idea captive you can get a better idea of what you’re thinking about, spending you time on and what ideas you could do something with in the future. You can get a better idea of what things you need to let go of, what you need to tell your best friend about, what you want to learn next or that great idea that your boss should hear about.
