Record, Revisit, and Refine Your Ideas To Keep Them Fresh.
When you come up with a new idea it’s easy to get excited and think you’ll remember it later.
The truth is that ideas are fleeting, so make it a habit to jot down your thoughts as soon as they come to you. Whether it’s in a notebook, a digital app, a quick voice note, or even a big yellow sticky note, getting your idea down will keep it from slipping away. The key is to make recording your concepts easy and accessible so that you’re not scrambling for a pen or a specific app. This simple step is the foundation for keeping a steady supply of fresh ideas flowing.
Once you’ve captured your ideas, set aside time to revisit them regularly. Ideas can get stale if they’re left alone too long, so make it part of your routine to review them and see if they still inspire you or could use some refining.
You know how when you open an app or a computer program it may take a minute for it to download the latest updates? When you revisit and review an idea you’re giving your creative mine a chance to download and update the original concept. You might discover a new angle or see how it fits with your current goals. Tracking these changes over time will help you understand how your ideas develop and make it easier to spot which ones are worth taking further and which ones can go back into storage to age like a fine wine.
See you tomorrow with a brand new Big Yellow Sticky...
