Release distracting thoughts and maintain your focus. Something pop into your head while you're working? Maybe something you need to do at home? Use Pensieve to email yourself a reminder of this thought to revisit later, and get right back to the task at hand.
Leave work at work. Think of an idea to implement at work while you're at home? Use Pensieve to send that idea, task, or to-do to your work email address so you can deal with it when you're back in the office.
Go out for a “thinking walk” to organize your thoughts, turn over some ideas, and get inspiration. When you have a realization or think of something you want to remember later, say it to Pensieve using the audio recorder and speech-to-text feature, and revisit your insights later in your inbox when you’re back at the computer.
Sometimes it's hard to stop thinking about work, even on the weekend or while on vacation. Add your work email address to Pensieve and send your work thoughts there so you can focus on being here now when you're away from the office.
Interesting thoughts often occur to us while we're commuting, whether its on foot, by bus or train, or in the car. But, we often cannot act on those thoughts in that moment. Pensieve is a great way to capture those ideas so you can act on them later.
Voice memo emails are especially helpful when driving. With the mostly hands-free UI, large record/send button, and up to 60 seconds of recording time, you can email yourself while on the road without the distraction of typing.
Are you out exploring a new city, perhaps without cellular data, and you notice some stores, restaurants, or places that you want to research later? Make notes of these things using Pensieve, and you can follow up on these items when you're back at the hotel or hostel.
Ideas pop into our heads as we're trying to go sleep all the time. Send those ideas to yourself using Pensieve so you can follow up on them tomorrow. This will help you empty your mind and sleep well.
Use Pensieve to keep a diary or journal, sending the entries to an email address or email alias specifically for this purpose. Perhaps a daily gratitude journal?
