Great write down with lots of good ideas. I too use a notebook to jot down whatever enters my mind. Tried evernote for the same purpose but it didn't stick as well as pen and paper. I also include trying new and different things that are outside my norm; that takes some serious effort sometimes.

Thanks! There's something much more visceral/real about a pen/paper than something like Evernote.

As for including things outside your norm - totally agree that it takes some serious effort. But in a world where we look at our phones more than our surroundings (sometimes), it's that kind of effort that makes things much more enjoyable and helps you focus too.
