I Started a "Dirt Notebook"
2 months ago
- The author struggles with turning notebooks into overly organized, cherished items, hindering spontaneous note-taking.
- To counter this, they started a 'dirt notebook' called 'The Drainage Channel' for messy, unstructured thoughts using an old, low-quality notebook.
- The notebook contains random quotes, story ideas, personal memos, and learning goals, scribbled without structure, making it fun and rediscoverable.
- Their goal is to fill this notebook to embrace messiness, potentially returning to better materials once comfortable with the approach.
