For the rapid note-takers & analogue homies, this is my underrated “hack” for lazy writers who don’t have time to organize the layout of their notes but need to establish clear contexts for something being written (heading, bullet point, styling).
This is nothing new but it’s rarely brought up (sometimes I have to remind myself)

📝Recently I bought a little pack of palm-sized notebooks in an effort to be more “analog” with my notes and thoughts (pretentious, I know). With a world of increasing options, I’ve found I am all over the place with my notes. I have some in Apple Notes, some in Notion, a few in other random apps I’ve accumulated over the years, and I’m sure others in places I forget. For the past month I’ve used these handwritten notebooks and it’s like something finally clicked for me. Just a quick jot away, I’ve got a pad filled and another started, with drawings/diagrams of ideas for projects and little notes I want to be able to look back on. Just make sure if you do this you pair those notebooks with some muji pens or your preferred writing tool for the ultimate experience.

😃Sometimes I write snippets of thoughts of an idea on my notes apps. So if I want get started, I’ll take the note and write verbatim on word and in red as the idea, and build the context around it in black.

📅I’m lazy but I also like to have my files organized. Whether it’s notes, photos, or drafts of projects I’m working on. Labeling my stuff with this date format let’s me create files and put them wherever with minimal effort, and I can easily recall stuff by just sorting them by name. And I don’t have to rely on a janky filter like “created by” “ modified by” etc.

Bonus tip: my friend likes to simplify it even further, he prefers YYMMDD (240316). Typically we steer clear from dots (24.03.16) or dashes (24-03-16) for formatting/compatibility issues when moving/sharing files around.

😃Jeans give me a sense of firmness. Sometimes when I’m “too” comfortable, jeans give me a sense of structure where I feel less like a slob. Discomfort in general. Pushing yourself. Expanding your threshold, stamina, skills.
