Doing something mindless - dishes, weeding - while NOT listening to podcasts. And always have a little paper notebook handy, to write down ideas.
(I've temporarily stopped listening to podcasts. I love them, but it was seriously becoming a little bit of an addiction. I'll try podcasts again, maybe while I'm traveling.)
How did you internalise the habit of carrying this notebook with you everywhere?
I do that too, but I kinda have several workbooks at several places. Which can get a bit disorganised at times haha

Yeah, several notebooks would cause a problem. I have ONE notebook that I use 95% of the time. It's a handy size, pocketable. I just bring it with. Writing notes down on your phone takes second place to a paper notebook. Just having the phone around can be problematic sometime. Especially if you're with other people.
