I've been wishing for clones for years, to offload some of the
   thinking to.

   Here's what I discovered that helped me; If I find people of
   similar mindset to me that are working on something that I am
   interested in or have been working on....

   I let the alternative "me's" keep working on it themselves, and
   my cognitive space is relieved to work on other novel things...
   until such time that I find someone ELSE working on those novel
   things as well...

   It's a HUGE help,- consider it.
