> Haven't you ever been working on something and realized there were two different things that had to be done, but in different directions? Yes, but who ever needed a TODO to remember that other thing? It's all part of the whole that you're trying to build, you understand what it's going to look like and why you're doing it like this, and of course after this part that other part also still needs doing. You don't need to remember it, it's part of the bigger picture. I write down reminders for things outside that, like people who wanted to ask a question, mails I need to answer, errands. Things that are hard to keep track of because they're not about the thing you want to be thinking of. The main thing you're trying to make doesn't need them. The creative process progresses when ideas come out subconscious processes, like when you take a morning shower. Todo lists are very conscious things.
