I take lots of notes of my thoughts, though I suspect it is mostly due to my obsessive nature and fear that I could forget an important thought.

The thing is, when will I take the time to go through the thoughts? I have a text file with over 10k lines of notes. It's a question of opportunity cost, I could wade through my old notes or do something else.
