122: Boxes for ideas

adamming.substack.com

I went to Daiso this week.

I bought 4 Boxes to store index cards.

They fit nicely into a drawer I have.

Not having a place to store index cards have been a roadblock for me to write any. Now that that is sorted, I’ve started writing index cards again.

I fill 3 index cards a day. One for each Category.

  1. The first is with a quote or principle. A truth or rule gleaned from reading or reflection.

  2. The second is a new concept or idea. A discovery resulting from curiosity.

  3. The third is an insight, template, or prompt. A distilled piece of domain knowledge/expertise.

Each card also has a checkbox, to show if I’ve written a Newsletter about the idea yet or not. This check box turns the collection into a project.
