ChatGPT Utilization Techniques | The 'Thought Refrigerator' Idea Organization Method to Keep Your Ideas Alive (Even for Those in Their 40s)
What do you do with
the things that pop into your head?
・I'll think about it later
・I don't have time right now
・I don't want to forget it, but now isn't the time
While you're thinking that,
don't they disappear before you know it?
And then you find yourself thinking about the same thing somewhere else.
I have always thought that was such a waste.
Thoughts don't have to be 'completed right now'
When you become an adult,
・I have to organize it properly
・I have to reach a conclusion
・Half-baked ideas are no good
You develop habits like that.
But honestly,
thoughts aren't that straightforward.
What comes to mind are always incomplete fragments.
My method is very simple
When an idea pops up,
I open ChatGPT on the spot and throw it in.
That's it.
Don't summarize.
Don't tidy up.
Don't evaluate.
Just leave it there.
Just like putting it in the refrigerator.
Thoughts that mature and thoughts that get buried
Not everything will grow.
・Themes you want to open again and again later
・Themes that don't resonate even when you read them again
They naturally separate.
But that is fine.
The things that got buried
just weren't needed right now.
Only what remains will mature.
It just keeps getting better.
When you stop thinking you 'have to nurture' them, it becomes easier.
In the past,
I tried to nurture every single idea I came up with.
But now it's different.
Once you put it in the refrigerator,
you leave the rest to your future self.
If you want to open it, you open it.
If you forget, that's natural too.
Trust your future self.
The choice not to hold onto your thoughts
When you use ChatGPT as a 'tool to provide answers',
you end up wanting the correct answer immediately.
But,
when you use it as a 'storage place for thoughts',
it creates space.
It doesn't have to be finished right now.
You don't have to reach a conclusion right now.
Just by doing that,
the pressure of thinking drops significantly.
However.
Thoughts that you let flow without placing them somewhere don't just disappear and end.
They change form and return to the same place again.
・I feel like I've thought about this before
・I'm stuck on the same thing again
It's not that your thinking is shallow,
it's just that you haven't "saved it."
Especially because you're in your 40s,
your time and energy are limited.
That is precisely why,
you don't have to do everything now.
You don't have to decide everything now.
But, don't let it disappear.
Just set it aside.
That alone is enough.
I call this the "Thought Refrigerator."
Whether it matures or not is something your future self can decide.
You can just open it again when you need it.
While doing that,
you'll notice your ideas naturally increasing.
However,
things you don't put in the refrigerator,
no matter how good the ingredients are, will spoil.
Thoughts are the same.
You don't have to force yourself to create them.
But it's a bit of a waste to let the ones that do come up disappear.
Thoughts will grow properly.
However, only the ones you have saved.
