@@nicolasgatien7283 Ernest Hemingway took advantage of the Zeigarnik effect. Instead of writing everything before stopping, he stopped in the middle of his work while still knowing what to write next. That way, in the next day he could just sit down and start writing what he had already thought the day before avoiding writer's block and that put him in motion to continue writing beyond what he already had in mind.
Funny, it contradicts to the principle never to quit unfinished things. But after a bit of reasoning I come to an idea that a lot of unfinished things overloads my memory while total finishing of all things leaves the memory empty. So one or two things should stay unfinished.
Great idea! This reminded me of the "Hemingway’s Bridge" strategy from Tiago Forte’s book Building a Second Brain.
Can you tell me more? I haven't read the book xD
