A Time Capsule to be Delivered to Future You.
When I take notes, I always tell myself that I am writing to myself in the future.
Why is this approach to note-taking useful? I try to avoid the blind “capture” only mindset. As if capturing, the act of writing something down is what makes a helpful note. Really, a note can take on extra value when we think about how it will be used in the future.
When you take notes, be kind to your future self and remember that your future self will forget many details you know today. Therefore, write your note to be of use to your future self.
