You are a very intelligent man! So glad to see younger people utilizing “analog” or “old” methods and realizing how they can be a benefit to our memory function. Love my modern technology and electronics, but my brain needs that analog stimulation as well.

I prefer the aesthetic of the pocket notebooks from Dollar General because I think it’s really cool that they look like tiny versions of the full-size marbled composition books, but the Walmart ones are better quality since they’re sewn together, whereas the DG ones are glued and fall apart really easily.
@GareTheBear
7 ай бұрын
Ohhhh right on!! Plus if I'm not mistaken, the DG ones only come in packs of 2 whereas Walmart comes in packs of 3. So it's a similar price but you get one more notebook! (Also, I was considering taking some of the black ones from Walmart that I have and Customizing them to look like a classic spackled comp book👀)

Awesome video! I too carry a pocket notebook. I started in Dec 23 and it has been a real game changer in helping me navigate all my ideas. I would use my phone, but the problem is, I never go back and look at notes in my phone. I fidget a lot so having a notebook to pull out and thumb through is perfect as i'm rereading ideas ive had constantly. I use it as a journal and planner too and lasts about 2 months. I'm fancy and i carry a 3.5" x 5.5" pocket sketch book, I like the slightly thicker pages.

Mate you want to add an indexing system to the front of the book so you can jump to the pages with specific ideas. For example you could have a video category, shopping category and an ideas category. I’ve done it and it makes everything so much easier and efficient

My take is there's 2 types of notes: 1. Things that change only slightly over time (think Wikipedia) 2. Free flowing ideas (Think Twitter) I think for the Wiki type of notes (e.g. daily routine checklists), digital is better as it's much easier to add/modify/edit. For the Twitter kind of notes, paper may be more suitable as you can also draw diagrams etc. My 2c.

Yes, co-existing, I was just telling this to my gf the other day. The notebook isn't to replace the phone. They work hand and hand. Analog and digital co-existing together. They each have their strengths and weaknesses but together they're unstoppable. (Ok, that was a little dramatic...)
