He already knew that writing things down is a way to avoid task saturation. He noticed the more he wrote down ideas, the more they flow. He also noticed the more he write things down, the clearer his mind is. He really is freed up and we can feel that. He bet writing things down was a part of Edison and da Vinci’s success.
Judges do two things when confronted with difficult cases: they decide what strategy they will use to solve it and then write down ideas as they think of them. By writing ideas down as they are generated, they free up their mind from the task of remembering them. Thus, it is able to come up with additional possible solutions and to analytically assess the soundness of the ideas that have been developed during the problem-solving process.
I think this really helps clarify and support why writing things down is an important part of getting results.
So, lets try doing it now......... :)
