5 Reasons You Should Write Things Down

8/11/2014

“Write down the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly the most valuable.”
                                                                      - Francis Bacon, Sr.
In a digital age it is easy to neglect the pen and paper for a keyboard or stylus and a computer. However, it is important to recognize the importance of writing things down. Here are 5 reasons you should write things down:
  1. If you write it down you can't forget it. Granted you have to have a system to keep track of all the notes you make; but at least you don't have to try and remember anymore.  
  2. It keeps you accountable. If you write down a short task list it helps you to stay focused. 
  3. Helps you think more clearly. Writing it down keeps you from having to remember it constantly which opens up your brain to new ideas.
  4. Boosts memory. Writing things down helps you store the idea or task in a different part of your brain. It frees your brain up to do other processes. Writing takes focus; have you ever tried to write something down while thinking about something else? It doesn't work.
  5. Helps you organize your P.R.I.O.R.I.T.I.E.S. Once you have everything out of your head it is easier to see what your next action should be.

These are all reasons why we utilize a paper planner system. Time Managed isn't just a planner; our quarterly planners are a notebook and planner combined (with plenty of room for notes and mind mapping).
“When you write down your ideas you automatically focus your full attention on them. Few if any of us can write one thought and think another at the same time. Thus a pencil and paper make excellent concentration tools.”
