While I can't disagree with your own analysis of your own thoughts, I would push back on generalizing this to what other people think. One's own thoughts have an intrinsic value, and to seize on them and let them flourish is one of my personal greatest joys. As a thinking being, how could I call my thoughts "useless"? Sure, I don't record every thought of every day, but I sure hope I continue at least having one or two interesting and, indeed, noteworthy thoughts a week or so through till my old age.
I meant that most thoughts are not important enough to write down, not that they're not important. For those I prefer to just let myself think. Most times the thought just goes away, some other times I just subconsciously refine it until it becomes pretty obvious this is something I want to write down.
Said another way, I don't write them every thought I have
