Tried writing down every random thought for 2 weeks, ended up with 3 pages of gold
I started a notes file on my phone called "dumb ideas" and added anything that popped into my head, no filter. After 14 days I had 61 entries and most were junk, but 3 of them turned into real plans I actually followed through on, including fixing the squeaky gate at my mom's place in Fresno. The weird part is the best one came while I was waiting at the DMV, something about how I always pack for trips. I guess the trick was not judging them while I wrote them down. Has anyone else tried dumping every idea somewhere before sorting it out?
