I still write in a physical notebook.
I still write in a physical notebook.
No screen. Just a pen and paper.
Writing. Drawing. Thinking.
Just me, a black Sharpie pen, and my dotted, hardcover Moleskine.
On a recent flight, a flight attendant noticed.
"You don't see that much anymore", she said.
When I think about my most valuable habits, they strike a similar cord.
- reduce distractions
- ruthlessly prioritize
- apply aggressive amounts of effort
- endure discomfort
We don't see these much anymore, either.
Good.
It wouldn't be much of an edge if everyone did it.
