Work is the hard part of working on ideas. I document my ideas through the work I do on them. Writing them down is a waste of time. I have more ideas than time for work already.

If you want to make stuff, make stuff. Don't worry about it being useful. Not knowing is a good reason to make something. The next thing you make will benefit from what you learn. From the experience.

Ideas that you aren't motivated to work on, aren't worth having. Taking notes isn't starting. Good luck.

Yeah, noted. It's crazy that the working part is the easiest (for me at least). I usually have to remind myself that I have to make money while building things, and to make money I have to be better at not just building, but also marketing and talking to customers and iterating.

But then I really understand that building things make you better at building useful things that people would want to pay for. Thanks!

Probably not. If you have a day job, you can make for the sake of making.
