Do We Write Notes On What We Know OR What We DON'T Know?

 

Do We Write Notes On What We Know OR What We DON'T Know?  Sound like a silly question?  BUT it's NOT dude.  The thing is, there has been NO consistency on this BUT please DON'T get me wrong, there is NO right OR wrong on this aspect as this is always part of our habit formation.  We would hear that we're supposed to write WHAT we know WHEREAS many of us [and that includes me] would rather write WHAT we need to remember💚💛💜

Prior to that dreaded Covid-19 Pandemic, we all sing the same tune, that is, we're BUSY [but of course, especially with the perennial traffic gridlock which has compounded by probably 10 to 20 times through the years.  Then, Covid-19 Pandemic hit us hard.  BUT then, even during that pandemic itself, life has always been busy, right?  And sometimes it seems easier to let the momentum of rushing around carry me through instead of doing the work of staying in the moment.  And my default disposition then is to be anxious💥💥💥

Oh Oh, I used to just power through, working myself to exhaustion, and then, berating myself for failing to meet those lofty and quite impossible standards I pre-set for myself.  BUT as I keep threading on in this planet, I'll admit that I'd be kinder to myself, to create systems that work with my anxiety instead of trying to force myself into doing things the normal way💧💧💧

One of my coping mechanisms then is to always have stacks of Post-it Notes around for stuff and actions I need to remember.  So, instead of lecturing myself, I simply flip through those Post-it Notes.  Of course, they look that troublesome BUT those helped me a lot to ensure that I would avoid commiting that oversight twice in a row [WHICH, frankly, is frustrating to vent out]😡😡😡

Our takeaway:  Writing NOTES may seem that oh-so boring stuff to talk about allow me to pitch my spiel here.  Let us NOT underestimate those small-small stuff because it may sound as 'loose change' OR small pebbles BUT look at the beach fronts facing the immense sheets of water, they are made up of those small-small pebbles.  Back into our lives, WHAT IF you keep missing important things OR actionable matters from time to time, WON'T that add-up to your pile-up of mediocrity?  DO WE WRITE NOTES ON WHAT WE KNOW OR WHAT WE DON'T KNOW???
