If they're important, I record those thoughts, and write them down.
Typically happens when I'm writing music.
What's really fun is keeping separate lists for different "conditions" you find yourself in.
For example:
- I have a list for when I'm..... herbally infused, if you will. That's a fun one. Useful things on there, also not as useful or random things are on there too.
- I have a list for when I run out of my prescription Adderall for my ADHD, and that list is..... random and intrusive.
- I have a list for my shower thoughts.
- I have a list for various "girl dinners" that my wife loves.
- Grocery lists are just boring.
- I keep a normal to-do list, alongside calendar alerts on my phone, something that helps the ADHD, ya see.
- I have various wish lists for various things on various websites. Those are fun.
