ANECDOTE

Family Holiday With Clue-Based Activities

  • Alia describes her family's "We Love to Be a Family Day" tradition with clue-based activities on a paper-bag map.
  • Activities ranged from simple home moments to volunteering and outings across ten years.
ADVICE

Use A Next-In-Line Project Shelf

  • Put near-future projects in a Next In Line list so ideas have a safe place until action time.
  • Capture brainstorms in a quick tool (e.g., Apple Notes) and later paste them into your project manager.
ADVICE

Transfer Captures Into Project Support

  • Move ideas from your capture tool into the project's support materials so nothing gets lost.
  • Keep brainstorms safe until the project becomes current and then act on them.
