Tony Stubblebine, a writer and now the new CEO of Medium, wrote the article Replace Your To-Do List With Interstitial Journaling To Increase Productivity. Being a productivity fanatic, I decided to give it a go.
For decades I've kept an "interstitial journal" but didn't know it had a name! Lol! My activities go into what I call a "log book" and my ideas into a "sketchbook". But they fit your definition of the interstitial journal. I also call it "living and thinking on paper". I find the method, whatever you call it, a good way to keep track and avoid going bovine i.e. chewing cud endlessly and in a purposeless, unproductive way. Thank you for another good post!
That a good strategy Laura. But I don't follow that because I do not want ideas to keep coming. I read something the other day - the worthy ideas will keep coming back. So I am going to relay on that.
I am glad you left a comment. Now I know you are following me here.
It is funny that they have name for almost everything. I think you need to build a habit of doing it. Otherwise it takes too much time.
