Distilling your thoughts isn’t complicated. You already do it—when you make dinner or pack a bag. Open your notes like your fridge: see what’s there, see what fits, make something yours.
Ideas only matter if you can find them. Organizing isn’t just filing them away — it’s turning scattered thoughts into something useful and ready when you need them.
Where your instinct tells you to look—that’s where the thing should live. And that’s probably how it should be named. And that's how I name my files.
I take notes in every meeting—not because I have to, but because it helps me pay attention. This is how I built a method that works for me.
The humble binder clip is one of several staple expendables in my Studio (aka. my office) and around my home. Cheap. Reliable. Incredibly useful.
