Personal ideography

Sometimes imagination works overtime, filling the mind with all sorts of vivid images and concepts. The trick is to know when to pay attention to these and when to dismiss them out of hand. To avoid overly hasty decision of what ideas to keep and what ideas to throw away, a good practice is to jot them all down and go over them at leisure at a later stage. Indeed keeping track systematically of ones' ideas, and recording them digitally for easy retrieval or sharing (social media), would over time build up a considerable personal ideography serving as a source for inspiration, collaboration or reference.
