Used a voice recorder on my commute for 2 weeks

I started dictating work ideas during my 45-minute drive to Cleveland instead of trying to remember them. Got 12 solid project notes out of it last month. Has anyone else found a weird time slot that works better for thinking than sitting at your desk?

Tbh I've had better ideas driving than I ever do staring at a screen in an office setting. The whole hands busy but mind wandering thing really unlocks stuff your brain was sitting on. Honestly it took me too long to realize my best thinking happens when I'm not trying so hard to think.

Same here @casey_harris. Used to think it was just procrastination but now I get it.

Honestly always thought the opposite until I tried it, now I get exactly what you mean.
