Note to self

Do you write notes to yourself? I hardly ever do because I dislike my handwriting, even if it's in capitals. But I think I should start doing it as nothing beats a little reflection to keep sane...

That is interesting, because I also do not like my handwriting, I dislike to write by hand!
So I do not write notes to myself, BUT I talk to myself all the time and I love that - and it keeps me sane!!!

I have a notebook next to my bed to write down inspiration in the middle of the night ...in the dark ...so sometimes it's hard to decipher in the morning what I wrote :-)

Hihi, yes, I sometimes write notes to myself. You can find them foremost stuck to the screen of my computer at work. .... the notes are there to give me courage, talking to myself as being my own best friend ;-)
Sometimes the notes are there to remind me of decisions I've taken.
And well, I relatively like my handwriting .. I like it most when using a pencil - did you try that?

I allways write notes for myself. At home, at work. I have a board in front of my desk for them at home. I don't think my handwriting is nice too, but writing makes me feel more calm and relaxed and "safe".

Writing positive notes to yourself is good for your self esteem, also talking to yourself in the mirror. It can change your negative thoughts to positive ones. First you feel a little bit uncomfortable, but after a while it's fun to do it! A friend of mine recommended this to me, from then on I always have a little notebook with me.
Have a nice day to all of you!

My desk is covered with to-do lists on post-it notes and any scrap paper I can find! I just love ticking the tasks off! I learned a while back that you should always write a to-do list for the day _the previous night_, starting with the most important tasks at the top - and then execute it in that very order.
Oh, and I believe that one's handwriting is reflective of the person's character. But I unfortunately don't know what it means when one doesn't like their handwriting. Is it similar to disliking your reflection in the mirror?

I do write notes tomyself - it helps me to concentrate. Somehow I store my brain in my hands - I tend to remember things that I have written down comapared to those I have not. Also, I noticed, that since I type a lot (for 10 yrs now) my handwritting is getting awful, and I dont like that. So I like to practice a little.
