How To Organize Your Thoughts

Organizing your thoughts is a very difficult task, because on a daily basis we are flooded with tons of different ideas, both those of our own and those of others. However, it is extremely important to know how to organize these thoughts to maximize productivity. The way that I do it is using white boards. Let me tell you how I do it.

[@IfigeneiaPalli]

I never comment on any video but I gotta say I’m impressed. 12 years ago having those editing skills and besides that the content is really helpful and authentic. Nice work

[@youtubeaccount6934]

Randomly recommended by KZbin and EXTREMELY helpful! Can’t wait to start doing this today. I honestly feel lighter in my head already. 😅

[@blessingchipidza7141]

Same here

[@jchristopher022]

Yes yes yes!

[@ormedanim]

You guys all have whiteboards? :O :D

[@flor.7797]

I’m categorizing my thoughts in Obsidian

[@MollisMulier]

I'm here Dec 2020...I like this and will definitely give it a trial.

[@alix743]

Me too

[@tinowenda1071]

Me too :)

[@JamesWalker-ew2xz]

Me 3, I’m going the same way you are...up!!!!

[@Snkr_suds]

Hows it working for you?

[@spiritbaptiste249]

Wow I bought the white boards a while ago. But I didn't have a format until now. Thank you so much!!!

[@stevenhutchinson1670]

Thank you so much for making this video! Since I started using this method, my stress level has dropped significantly!

[@littlegirl3263]

This is great! Thank you for sharing! I can’t tell you how many thoughts stay in my head and eventually disappear, until I hear someone else say it out loud! This will help me to get my ideas into motion or allow them to purposely be eliminated rather than simply forgotten.

[@lindaoffenbach]

Came across this randomly. It is old, but to my experience, the people I have seen doing these sort of mind mapping were always very insecure and constantly anxiously worried that something was to go wrong somewhere, and that they might feel failed in the end. I’ve also seen people keeping themselves caught in endless mind mapping not going anywhere practically, or tending strongly towards micro management. I just write down ideas and have simply always gone for it. What to do to achieve the goal is pretty much evident and logical. However, mind you, an idea is just an idea, one will have to be dealing with the real world. Feedback and input by others are constantly needed. Things will never go as plan or as thought, circumstances change, there will be resistance, and one has to adjust. The danger of too much mind mapping is that creativity may suffer. Just keep focus on the vision and commit but leave room for flexibility and creativity underway.

[@alexramos2670]

It’s difficult to guess what other people are thinking; and then there is the whole difference in thought process between each human being. I appreciate the content that I just view of you, because the content had a such a positive experience that I had to comment about it on KZbin comment section. Thank you.

[@40EntrepreneurDrive]

👋I'm checking in January 4th 2021. This video is still very relevant and speaks directly to the issue I've been having the last two years since I decided to become an entrepreneur. The ideas just won't stop coming. About 90% of them seem very feasible. I like how you break them down into titles of loose thoughts, developed thoughts, and action plans. I never ever thought of it that way. This video is so helpful. I've been keeping my ideas in notebooks, folders, sticky notes, and digital notes on my mobile app and even in the spreadsheet on my computer. 😳 I've got two major business ideas, with a couple of smaller subdivisions of my business that all complement each other. One of them is also a faith-based business. I am so happy I came across your Channel. Will be checking out more of your content.👍

[@thesparks00]

Unbelievably helpful. Effective too! I've given up on writing my thoughts, pushing my lifestyle to stick to a topic so I'm not scrambling all the time, but the ideas always come and it's inevitable. I've been doing that loose idea in departments, not concentrating much until I set a date on it. I always try to come back to my scramble/random notes, there's a ton of them. I love the moving up or crossing it out too, after some time and a more concrete plan it does become irrelevant. Thanks again!

[@simranpadhi7880]

Thank you so much for this....I have been struggling to organize my thoughts since a long time....Finally I found a breakthrough because of you...

[@pinal079]

8 year old video but the idea is still a gem... really very helpful n productive way to record your thoughts n future plans...loved it.

[@TheAdhdGardener]

1min in and i swear its like you're in my head! The thoughts and constant ideas never leave! Its always goin which leads to disorganized chaos and anxiety. My therapist recommended white boards and they def help!💯. I need one super huge one like a giant wall of white board😆

[@robertmccully2792]

yea me to,, had that problem for 40 years.

[@CreativeThinking52]

Very informative video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Have an amazing weekend. 👍💡💯 likes

I’m here in 2024 and still found this super helpful!! Thank you!!!

[@shanyialexander]

Love your white and glass board idea, dreamscaping, flow chart, Swot analysis, and construct the vision 👍🏼

[@eden7736]

Omg. Whiteboards. I need this room! 🗯️💭🗯️💭🖍️🖍️🖍️

[@QueenJu20]

Thanks great tips. I did get lost in thought while watching this so I had to rewind and pay attention. I’ll have to watch this a couple more times. Because this was a thought that I wrote down; I was journaling anyways, so I decided to actually go on KZbin to watch a video on it.

[@amyalley1]

I am drawn to visual representations...this is great!

[@melancholiac]

Drawn? See what you did there!

[@machinelethal1430]

Very good strategy. Instead of white boards I use the notes app in my phone but still the same concept. I just have to make sure to look at my notes everyday.

[@k27ism]

*MY THOUGHTS* Great illustration in this video and I will def put this into action. Having too much thoughts is a sign you worry about yourself a lot. You are not prepared to accept what you have to do yet, so you distract yourself long enough to get ideas. You must put your feet down and get into the action or else you spend majority time dreaming about completing things. The only up side with prolonging ideas and sorting them out like this, is you gradually train yourself to think and see in a particular mindset that serves your goal. And that is helpful, but the real life situations up ahead will only be experienced when you apply yourself. So don't get too distracted and remember that actually doing things is what gets things done.

[@WendellHerndon-g4p]

You explain things in such an engaging way!

[@rinagetsreal6189]

I dig it!! I do get a million ideas and I'll write notes or text myself or video myself saying something about it and that's fine but transferring them to a whiteboard would be great. Right now they tend to get lost in the shuffle.

[@kuja.123]

just found this video .. very useful for my unorganize life (before) .. the ideas, the thought i can use all wisely and action plan can be planned beforehand .

[@alexxarcadia]

Thank you so much! this is amazing, easy, and effective. I love it!

[@thatgirl3239]

Perfect. Simple to the point and very useful. I've watched more than a few vids on this topic and you capture it best. Thank you!

[@loveleeluv7]

Oh wow, Thoughts, Dreams & Minisrry organizing, explained & simplified ⚡! SUBSCRIBED! And to think this has been here for 8 years and I've been watching other famous "gurus" & preachers for longer than 8 years who sound great but never seem to give practical steps and here's this simple practical vid BUT THE YT ALG*RHYTHM never dished it to my way 😥! UNTIL I SEMI-BINGE WATCH ON BRIAN TRACY last night (My old-time FAVORITE, by the way)! 👐 Thank you for this video, a starting help for mind organization that I NEED!💖 God bless you 💟! Reporting useless channels now and clicking "don't recommend" on them 🚽TO START CLEANING UP OLD YT recommendations. Praise be to my Holy YESHUA 💖!

[@Yzjoshuwave]

This video was an excellent and very concise explanation about how to organize ideas into action plans... Also, that coast to coast run in a year is pretty intense.

[@siddhanasri9238]

Awesome! Simple enough n Spot-on... Thank You Devon! n also thank You Nate for requesting this Vlog

Writing clerifies thought :-)

[@jesmano1194]

Thank you very much! God bless you! ❤

[@Cat-sv7zu]

You can buy unframed white board cheaply at craft stores or office supply stores. Its usually by the poster board. They are two sided. They are very light in weight. Contact velcro strips work well to hang them.

[@SomeGuy_83]

This guy is so busy he cant even write, I fucking love it.

[@shubhambhardwaj6952]

I do like of that system . i just put down in my diary when idea pops up but categorization is not acheived. Now i got an inspiration form him.

[@JnTmarie]

You inspired me. Thank you. I hAve to get it out of a notebook on the wall.

[@supporttech5879]

Thank you! I have an updated action plan now! ✌🏻❤️

for your dark background whiteboards you may like some form of white chalk marker instead of dark colored dry erase type.

[@serronserron1320]

Thank you very much. I needed this.

[@JomarBalanag]

The only thing I don't like in this video was the sound of the pen when his writing on the board. :D

[@TameraWeeks1]

Ouch. I agree. :)

Just wonderful, I have been researching "organizing for home" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ponrooklyn Xeyichael Secret - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now )? It is a smashing one of a kind product for discovering how to declutter and keep your house tidy minus the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cousin got cool success with it.

[@khizarabid8414]

very good, that is what i do but on a small sheets of paper, now it is time for me to move on big boards :) thanks for your help bro

[@forceforgood4669]

This is definitely helpful tip. Thanks for sharing. I get lots of crazy ideas but they tend to slowly evaporate because I don’t list them all. Instead I peak one at any given time which takes my whole attention. The good news is it does get accomplished. The bad news is, at the expense how many more ideas that slipped away?

OMG you just created a monster! a good monster:) nail on head! thanks!

[@victorgichun]

Cool, simple and very effective, thanks for sharing

[@ceafva]

Loved this. I used to have a white board for my writing projects in my office; now I work from my 1 bedroom apt and there isn't any wall space. I've used all of it productively already for my jewelry supplies, like a wall of hammers, etc. I work the way you do and would like to have this again. I loved being able to stare at it and add, moved, delete, etc. I have 2 businesses, and always working on another book, and my head jumps and is so creative. I would like to return to the efficiency of a white board again. I'm am avid mind mapper (30 years of experience teaching this as well). Love and use Mind Manager app but it doesn't seem to really work for me. Do you have other ideas for someone with limited space challenges like I have?

[@anwarbutt8879]

Did you ever get the answer to your question about limited space. I hear you totally. How about as an alternative using a large Artist pad like A1 in a portfolio style binder - wall space is definitely better to have the ideas visually represented and on full display, but in reality how many people have the luxury of this amount of free wall space. Great concept though I love it !!

I am scatterbrain with only a selective memory. I keep digital notebooks & scrapbooks, mood boards, Pinterest, etc. I create scrapbooks with Google Slides. For studies, I take screenshots of others' answers to rigour questions, store them in scrapbooks, insert my notes and attach links to sources. Screenshots act as memory triggers.
