Same pen. Same problem 😂. The double sided click pen just a tad bit taller still allowed me to keep small pen while being more comfortable. Great tips. New sub
It’s not the mosquitos that piss me off, it’s the fucking ticks. We went out on a maybe a mile long walk in the woods the other day and I am still picking up the motherf**ers from my clothes.
Good and fair point. For some it works perfectly with e.g. notion and other apps, and others prefer the traditional ways with the feeling of pen and paper. In my opinion I'm feeling way more accountable when it's actually written down compared to digital notes. But thanks for the input. I might do an entire video on the topic 👍
I find it useful and helpful to do both. For me, they have different purposes. I believe writing on paper or typing on a phone work a bit differently with our brains, as well. Also, if I want to remember people's names or remember places to stop for a restroom, beverage, and to stretch my legs, I will put these kinds of things in my phone, probably in Google Keep, because then I can reference them any time I am out and about. But to just jot down thoughts and observations and notes from books, I prefer pen and paper. If I don't want to be obtrusive about pulling my phone out, I might put something in my pocket notebook which I would prefer to have in my phone for anytime access; but I will transfer it to my phone later (but soon, so I don't forget).

For me, the idea of journaling is putting pen to paper. I bought a Kindle Scribe intending to keep a digital journal and ended up sending it back. The idea of having my journal with all my books on one device was very enticing. However, it just didn't feel right for me. I now have a Lochby Field Journal with my Kindle Paperwhite Signature tucked in one of the pockets and just love it! It has a totally analog feel to it (except the Kindle with my 300 or so books!). Cheers!

Thank you
here in the UK, we have Scottish midges, that can be worse than mosquitos maybe. Good point about always carrying a notebook. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the feedback! Always encouraging to keep continuing with comments like these. I'll have to Google the Scottish midges 😃
I've made some of those mistakes as well. My problem is I tend to have too many notebooks around! 🙂
I’m guilty of all five mistakes. Thank you for explaining each. You know me well! 😊
Wow, short but very informative video. Now, I'm going to carry my notebook everytime. I am guilty about it.
Blessings on you. Keep writing.
Thank you for this. Needed to hear the 'stop comparing yourself to others' section.

Nice video! Helpful. Thanks!
Those mosquitoes definitely enjoy your blood near the end... I thought you said you had repellant :) Thanks for really good inspiration and clarity
Guilty of all of those!
I was thinking that I can't be the only one with these 😀

Uffff that's also a bad one. Luckily theres not that much of them here 😀
Just use notes on your phone
