Q: do you ever get overwhelmed by all the stuff you want to do? i find that if I have lots of different ideas for what to do, they all fly in and out of my head like butterflies; so I forget them. Is there a thought-butterfly net I can buy somewhere?
A: yes. a simple word processor / text program, or notes app on your phone / computer would work great. if you don't have a phone / computer (i know you do, but even if you don't) paper and pencil would work fine. Keep the ideas all on the same list, preferably even dated with when you came up with them. it will help keep things organized, and put things in perspective. you will have to make another plan on top of that for how and when to work on which ones, but being organized about catching the original ideas is a core skill to have
