Great idea. I have a notebook where I write down ideas for companies, things I think about. I think it is a really, really good practice to write it down..
The reason I'm saying that is that human beings have selective memory. They tend to remember things they did the right way, they remember their good ideas, times they were right, etc.
I used to note my ideas that would seem genius.. And then I'd look at them a couple months later and it's humbling. How stupid could I be.
But there is a good thing about this: It taught me a valuable lesson.. It taught me to focus on real needs, and not some fancy thoughts I have at 3AM. Like real needs.
And I know that at an early stage, one needs to let go of critical things and be open and not dismiss ideas, etc.. But it's just that some ideas are plain stupid and I had plenty of those.
I write them down, then cross things. Not a real need, not a problem. Now I'm thinking about an idea that I'd use if it were available. And I'm not the only one.
