Adhere to a filesystem... Right now all my files are a mess — often getting saved in random places... I know I can find them with a quick spotlight search, but it tends to bite me a bit when I need to locate a document from several months ago.
That, and keeping a journal of some kind.
- lunchables 9y agoYou should do it! I just looked at mine and I've been keeping notes since June 2007, so earlier this year was 10 years. Hard to believe. I just set a calendar reminder and each sunday I jot down a few things from the week. It really forces me to look back and reflect on the week and helps everything seem like less of a blur. I'd just write what happened at work, or health/fitness updates, what I was listening to or watching, how my relationships were going, that kind of stuff. Anyway I'd highly recommend it, it's not only cathartic in the moment but it's also a lot of fun to be able to look back on ten years of it. What a different person I was 10 years ago!
- sarreph 9y agoThank you for the inspiration :) I think the Sunday-alarm is a great idea. I always try and do daily-notes and end up getting demotivated after missing a few days... that and all my notes ending up as a stream-of-conciousness... Will try that system out!
- fokinsean 9y ago> Adhere to a filesystem Oh man I feel this one. My backups are just dumps and my photos are totally un-maintainable. I would also like to figure out an easy phone/photo backup scheme where I don't have to import my photos once a month and then copy them to my harddrive. That's how my photos got in such a mess in the first place.
