Something I've been trying to cultivate is the ability to "externalize" my thoughts (even if it's just to myself). Like, more of a process-oriented approach. it's so easy to bang out some code that works, but sometimes I look back at what I wrote and think "how did I wind up here"

I hate background thinking. I mean, I want that background thinking to be more foreground thinking. Feels like the brain playing games on knowing the answer but not wanting to give it right away.
