Capture System 📷
David Allen once said
"Your brain is made to create new ideas, not store them."
Once you think of an idea
Store it using a digital capture system via any app of your choice.
Pro-Tip 💡
Apple Notes & The Drafts App are my two personal capture systems.
Parallel Processing ♾
The most important step in my framework.
Each idea must be at a different stage of completion.
• Idea
• Creating
• Completed
Working on a new idea one at a time will only increase friction.

Build connections with other ideas.
Think outside the box.
