Many people forget or neglect to take notes. Even worse: when they do take notes, those often end up lost or forgotten. The problem isn’t motivation—it’s having a system. A thread about why this matters 🧵👇 (View Highlight)
Your brain is amazing, but it’s not designed for long-term storage. Without notes: • Ideas fade away • Insights get lost • Connections never happen • Learning doesn’t stick (View Highlight)
“But I’ll remember this!” No, you won’t. And that’s okay—it’s not your brain’s job to remember everything. Its job is to think, create, and make connections. Notes free your mind to do what it does best. (View Highlight)
The real problem? Most people don’t have a clear system for: • Capturing ideas • Organizing thoughts • Finding notes later • Connecting insights together They’re playing a losing game. (View Highlight)
Here’s the truth: Even messy notes in a proper system are 100x more valuable than perfect notes that end up lost. The system matters more than the notes themselves. (View Highlight)
