Note-Taking Is Perpetual Learning (Steal My How-To Start)

Writing notes along life is a beacon of awareness

Learning and note-taking are brothers. Writing is their ancestor and founder. Together, they bring sparks of awareness into our lives.

Awareness

Note-taking is how you know yourself and your life.

No one knows himself entirely in a flash. This is a long and fragmented process, and each fragment increases awareness.

But the fragments of awareness come unexpectedly, and you can't plan for them to appear. You can only do one thing to preserve and capitalize on those precious bursts of authenticity: remember them by writing a note in your diary.

When you jot down your understanding of life, you get more than retaining information. You allow yourself to come back months and years later and dialog with your past.

If you don't note your moments of awareness, you will lose your past. It will drown in the unconscious, and you will no longer be the master of it.

Studying is life, so note-taking.

If you stop studying because you don't go to school anymore, you're dead and don't know it.
