read this somewhere a few months back and it’s stuck with me. i have a horrible memory, so now i’ve started writing everything down.
my own little commonplace book for my thoughts and other people’s thoughts. my own little second brain (check out tiago forte 🙏🙏)
WRITE THINGS DOWN!! you’ll thank yourself when you’re feeling uninspired, because chances are your brain had an idea a week ago, a month ago, even a year ago, that can fix that.

Not every idea is a good idea. But maybe a small part of it is, or maybe it can grow into one, or maybe it will lead to the next good idea, or maybe you just need to get all those lousy ideas out of the way so the good ones have room to breathe.
Or maybe it just feels good to write and this fixation on good vs bad ideas is the thing that’s in the way.

If you write it you can do it
Also i know our brains almost immediately erase dreams when waking up so try to get even the tiniest of sensation down on a page

sonder: the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background
Remember how weird everyone else is. Remember that you’re everyone else. You belong with these people. Your community is spread out in front of you, sprawled along takeout cups, staring at their phones, trying to get home.

a very short and page-turning sci-fi novel that reads like if the matrix had time travel, if you want to have an existential crisis read this.
