A few years ago, I created a text doc where I drop in my ideas. Whenever I have an interesting conversation or come up with a big question, I add it to the doc. It might be a few words or a sentence — just enough for me to know what I was thinking about when I revisit the doc later on.
And then I’ll come back to the doc every week or so. Some of the ideas turn into blog posts or new products. Some turn into nothing. (Not every idea is a good idea!)
I’ve always got more ideas than I can actually take on. There’s always new stuff for me to work on later.
So create your own doc with ideas. It can be a text doc, a notebook, a series of voice memos on your phone. You never know which ones might turn into something great.
