It is not journaling.
It's stream of consciousness writing.
So you're just writing essentially anything that's coming into your mind.
And this is a really amazing way to dump what's kind of spinning around in your subconsciousness and kind of eating up your brainpower onto a page.
And often just writing is a really great exercise to solve problems that you don't even that somehow are locked inside your head and spinning around.
And so for me, I'm not going to show you what's written in them because you'll think I'm insane.
But I use this as well for morning pages, not all the time.
But when I'm feeling like my brain needs to be defragmented, when I need to just get some blah out onto the page.
And so that's, if you don't want to write stuff down, I think an exercise that can be fun to try if you haven't written so much before is something like morning pages.
It's really cool.
I love companies that don't care about this stuff because they're just like, we want to make our products really good and everything else just gets ignored.
Oh, it looks very nice.
Oh, it looks beautiful.
They're tiny portions, yeah.
I think this, I'm really glad you chose this because I think a lot of people, one of my, I guess, values or philosophies in life is to optimize for your day to day and not for like, so you buying this, you get to see this product and use this product every day.
And so on a random Tuesday, this thing is making your life better.
And I think a lot of people are a bit confused sometimes when they come to my apartment and they see something like I bought a new hi-fi system and they ask me how much it is and I tell them and they know I could have also bought something else more practical or like I could have had a better I could have a better car or whatever.
Something else.
I could be investing in getting a house, whatever it is.
But I'm like, I am looking at this thing every single day.
