Episode notes
Do A Quick Timed Brain Dump
- Grab a pen and paper and write down everything that comes to mind without censoring it.
- Time yourself for 5–10 minutes to clear intrusive thoughts quickly and move on to tasks.
Brain Dumps Are Not Journals
- Brain dumping differs from journaling because it ignores structure, hierarchy, and polished sentences.
- The goal is instant mental relief, not a record you feel obliged to keep or reread.
Use A Short Timer And Act After
- Set a short timer so you don't spend excessive time on the exercise and keep it effective.
- Use the cleared mental space to prioritize or start actual tasks immediately.
