Many years ago I noticed that using a paper almanac was very helpful in certain situations, actually helping me make more use of the Google Calendar. Two years ago I started using a bunch of notebooks (basically one notebook per topic) because writing ideas down is very helpful to me. Just at the end of the year I got a sketchbook for drawings. At the beginning of the year I got a bunch of Post-Its and started my very own conspiracy wall (the conspiracy is that there’s stuff I’m supposed to do at some point).
Unless you have the common “my fingers are idiots” (AKA poor fine motor skills) symptom of ADHD like I do, making any handwriting a slow and arduous chore with “legible” the height of aesthetic success 🤷
I use a notepad in many meeting at work to not be a complete pain in the ass.
If I write it down it’s not lost, and if it’s actually a good point I can bring it up at a good time or circle back to it.
On the other hand, my notes:
APC Excel FriIt all made perfect sense when I wrote them down. But two hours later I have no fucking clue what any of it is supposed to mean.
Australian Penitentiary Choirs strive for excellence, and for that, they need frigates.
lmfao FRIGATES?
You never know when a frigate will come in handy.
Granted, it’s “almost never” for most people, but your nautical mileage may vary 🤷
Frigates are probably one of the more useful naval combat vessels if sea (and air) superiority isn’t a concern. Checks out.
Oh, that’s actually pretty clever.
Notepads are underrated. It’s so much more intuitive than using an app.
