Most of the time, my mind can be in an entropy state, which is not disordered as you might imagine but rather a continuous flow of ideas and thoughts left and right. Unwisely, I frequently neglect to write down my ideas in a journal or even just on my phone. After a brief period of entropy, my memory of those ideas is lost.

Having these thoughts while working on something unrelated to what I need them for is rather worse. They simply stick it in and wait five minutes before popping it out. I then make a valiant effort to recall it, but it has vanished.
Despite the fact that I am aware of this, I frequently fail to record my thoughts (ideas). I don't know why, but I don't think I should put the responsibility on my flawed human character. Instead of working to correct their mistakes, people tend to remark things like, "He's just human," when they recognize flaws in themselves.
To not boast, but despite how smart I am, I am forgetful. Because my brain can't hold onto a lot of knowledge for very long, I frequently lose stuff. I'm not embarrassed by what I've said, but I am learning to be a little more cautious and pay attention to the tiny things.
I frequently lose track of time in my own imagination, which is why I have a tendency to forget things. These thoughts allow me to visualize my ideas and how I might be able to recreate them. I remain awake but lose awareness of my immediate surroundings.
But when I write my thoughts, everything gets easier in regard to remembering and taking action in building them if not, then I am lost still my brain boot in another creative idea.

An idea that lives in the mind alone is very much like the words written on the shore and will be washed away by every wave of diesturbance.Some thoughts need to be expressed in writing in order to become fully implanted in our hearts and become reality. We are all human, therefore basing the development of our ideas just on the power of our retention abilities is by no means the first step in the creation process. Even our distant predecessors left writing on cave walls to record their history, ideas, and even messages.
I am very much like you in this regard. I have brilliant ideas every now and then, but they just get washed up in the ocean of responsibilities when I fail to take a moment to record them into a journal or something.
Having the mind in an entropy state is basically part of the human nature if you'd define it. We're designed to figure it out, but in the meantime, we may seem lost. One just has to channel their energy into being persistent and consistent to obtain that which is substantial in showing forth one's hardwork.
Well done, brother.
man, I always respect this your comments oh.. It deserves pass 100% of my vote self... Your first paragraph lasan dey super constructive. I love how you related it to writing on the shore, that's quite relative.
What can I say? Don't you wish you had a mentor like mine?
I know say I dey always give you work with my long comments. Don't mind me, I just like to dey rant.
Thanks for the kind words, my oga (in your voice).
Most times I also tend to forget things too especially anything book, it's really hard to recall them but with other things i can with time.
It's a good thing you are working on yourself, there's this app I downloaded one time, it helps your brain store information well so it will be easy to remember.
I've forgotten the name but it's on playstore, you can try searching for such things, it helps a little.
Yeah, I know about some apps that helps train one to remember stuffs. It is nice to have those apps but right now, mytime are fixed on a lot of stuffs and I don't think there is any left for such app. but I may try it later sha.
Oh I see, when I was even typing my comment it crossed my mind that you might be too busy for such apps but I just had to say.
All you have to do is create a little time but if you can't, it's fine, you don't have to push it too much, you can always wait for a day you have the time. Although most of these apps are more effective if you do them every day 😉😁.
It feels like someone has written it about me for me.
There are loads of ideas and thoughts in my mind yet I fail to write them down any where. In my strive to keep things in my mind for long, I actually hinder my progress. The thoughts slow me down on other tasks, even on physical ones. Like I am washing dishes along with remembering the forgotten thoughts, my hands do not work as fast as I would do otherwise.
I know these thoughts are the obstacles and writing them would relieve me on the one hand and be saved on the other,but why I don't write them still. I. Don't. Know. 🤨
let's just say we are siblings from different sides of the planet 😅
Hehe. You are my Brother from another mother 🤣
I remembered one day while in class, this lecturer was dictating and because I have the pdf in my phone, I didn't bother to write because I was like “of what use again?” but she noticed me and told me I still need to write so I wouldn't forget it.
The truth is when we write down our thoughts and things we need to pen down, we easily remember them as they are stored in our hearts than thinking about them and waving them off. That alone would wash off immediately.
hmm.. some true words there... that's why I rewrite a lot of stuffs so many times when preparing for exams.
Exactly. Penning them down brings them back to our memories as we won't forget.
This is so me, sometimes i forget about thoughts or ideas just came into my mind like my brain give me signal something is missing but it never comes back
Since it was happening quite often i decided to write down on notepad (it was always a Good feeling) - notepad was filled with so many thoughts and topics i need to write as blog later but then my mobile Got Dead - lost all my thoughts, ideas or topics written on it and now I'm mostly having a hard time.
This post has made me know that "We are not alone, but the same and alike"... Almost everyone can relate to my post and I am glad it is so.
Your notepad got dead, you mean a flat battery. or it damaged?
Yea we always think it happened to us only until everyone starts relating with the same thing.
I mean my mobile is dead (not repairable) so lost my lot of thoughts or ideas written in it.
Shit... dead, that hurts...That's why I love cloud storage. They come handy in when changing a device.
Next time, you can use google notes but make sure you are logged in to your mail. If you change your device, you would able to still access your notes.. Sorry to hear that, It can be so painful...
You are not alone in this, it's part of human nature due to other responsibilities around our brain 🧠 and so we tend to forget thoughtful ideas. It happens to me severally but the moment I learned to always pen down new ideas before they vanish, it became better.
that is why we have so many history books today, because we cannot rely on our minds to retain the exact information but to preserve this knowledge and always go back to it anytime it is needed.
Yes, ideas can come in like a flash of light. We might be conscious of it but after a while, it may be blown off by other thoughts and activities. But once such idea is put down on a paper, one can easily revisit it to execute it, modify it or discard it.
Exactly! Just a second spent on writing down one's thoughts and ideas is very important. We all could be inventors in our little ways, if we'd just pen down our creative thoughts.
Exactly. That's perfectly true
hmm... well said. Once you have them written down, you have the decision to make on what to use it for.
Even the Bible says write the vision and make it plain but sometimes when some ideas come we forget to writes it happens with me too …
And you find out later you won’t remember it the exact way but it will be well wooh
That's to show how mighty the pen is... thanks so much for your comment. It is well appreciated.
You can think a very good topic to write in just a short period of time but you can't think to write it down. Hmmm if you have something in mind, always remember to write it in your notes @starstrings01 so you won't forget it and will save you to think again.
Yeah, thanks for the words.. Most times, these thoughts come when we don't expect them, and they are useful ideas. If I don't write them immediately, I would surely forget them. Thanks again.

I also feel bad because I don't retain knowledge for long about small things, it's kind of frustrating, I thought I was the only one. Greetings.
