Hi Gena, thank you for sharing this technique - I have done part of it for many years and can confirm it works: writing down worrying (or even exciting) thoughts for “safe-keeping” helps a lot to focus on the task at hand.
However, how do you suggest processing all those notes afterwards in a coherent (and non-anxiety inducing) fashion? Also, isn’t it sometimes the best moment to work on sth when one is most excited/worried about it?
