This is why I write down the questions I'm trying to answer in a text doc, e.g:
Where is this network call comming from? ../some-api-call.js Why do you think it's causing a 403?
Etc. So if I lose my thought (all the time), I know exactly what and why I was doing it. Also stops you from re-investigating things you forget
It's a very valid advice.
I also try to do it for complicated bug and it helps me to keep a track of what I tried to do and my hypothesis.
