YOUR BRAIN IS MEANT FOR MAKING IDEAS NOT STORING THEM!

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.

my first draft is my last

i probably shouldn’t do this. i definitely shouldn’t, actually. i do it anyway. i write a substack piece all in one go then i take a breath and hit ‘post’ before i give myself the time to read it over. i think if i didn’t do this i would never post anything cuz i’d be stuck in an endless loop of redrafting. writing to get it out into the world is enough of an intention for me. if i were to be any more careful in my practice i doubt anything would get written at all.

USING TEXT AS THE ONLY FORM OF COMMUNICATION WITH A LOVE INTEREST

No I don’t want your socials. I don’t want to know when you’re active and not replying, I don’t want to know when you’re posting stories or who you’re following. I don’t wanna know. Tell me in person, when we go on a date. I want you at complete face value with zero pre conceptions.
