This is a much more polished version of what I do, which is to keep a note (in Notes app) called Brain Dump, and I jot down anything that is cluttering my mind, which I hold on for fear of forgetting. Just the act of writing it down helps; it's a reassurance that it's ok to let go of those thoughts because they are saved elsewhere.
What I like with MonkeyMind is the minimal amount of friction involved, as well as automatic timestamp.
- startingpoint 6y agoI had the same notes file, and a piece of paper where I would write stuff like that down. I'm glad you like it!
- aantix 6y agoI thought I was the only one. I’ve had repetitious thoughts and originally thought they were repeating because there was some thing missing, some nuance that I hadn’t explored. But once I would write them down, sometimes they would just go away. It must have been a fear of forgetting.
