This post made me try adding more randomness to my life for a week or so. I learned a small amount. I remain excited about automated tools that help do things like this, e.g. recent work from Ought.
When my brain says “I’m tired stop working” it mostly means “I’m tired of working on this thing stop working on this thing”. Switching tasks often allows me to maintain productivity.
Trying to think while on a walk doesn’t work for me at all. Thinking without something to write with is impossible.
Social media should probably be avoided.
Writing things as a way to clarify thinking works much better than I expected.
