Then when I accumulate documents, it's obvious documents for a specific project or client or whatever go into a separate, dedicated folder. Idk it's just helpful for me to think about the physicality of it.

My epiphany is to think about physical notebooks. So now I have 5 notebooks in Evernote. 1. Goals (Personal) 2. Goals (Work) 3. Journal 4. Personal 5. Work which is how I would separate notebooks if they were physical. I think the separation works way better for my brain.

i recently had the 'epiphany' that these notes apps (Craft, Obsidian...) using the 'folders' metaphor is not helping. This PARA shit is not helping me. It's somehow the wrong mental model for me, I can't wrap my brain around it.

Reading early copy of @asmartbear.com 's book Hidden Multipliers They say the most important part of a post is the title, the hook, the subject line That's wrong. I think it's WHO wrote it I will read everything Jason Cohen writes.

Until it becomes a fact that we stop getting paid to think, please do not stop thinking just yet

Plus there's now even less incentive to have original thoughts and ideas

I am really worried what generative AI will do to real life conversations Too many people ramble and never make a point as it is Now they have even less practice when texting and writing emails It's gonna get way way worse

Started using LACRM www.lessannoyingcrm.com two days ago. The rumors are true... It is indeed (way) less annoying! Actually initially decided to use Copper but it didn't survive 1 hour of real use.

Memo to Myself: The Three Money Thresholds
tl;dr Earn up to €100K with full effort. Save aggressively to €2.5M. Beyond €10M, give deliberately or stop — because past that point, the money owns me more than I own it.
