Ask HN: How do you optimize your shower-thoughts?

I have wondered a lot about the kind of thoughts I have during shower. On most days, I find the best alternative solution to the problem I'm stuck upon for hours (personal or professional ones).

How many of you go through the similar experiences everyday? And if it's a common phenomena, how do you make sure that you're thinking on the right problem at the right time?

I usually get shower thoughts about SaaS products. So I built https://saasible.com , so I and others can share these ideas.

Hahahah. The whole point of “shower-thoughts” breakthroughs is because your not actively pushing to an answer, background processing.

Going agro and trying to maximize defeats the whole purpose.
