Decluttering Old Notes

Notebooks filled with referenced ideas and random musings on sheets, which consume our space, can be a pain in the neck.
Theyโre inspired, instantaneous and necessary.
How to process all of it, and where to put it is the question I get on repeat.
Here is how I handle the paper clutter, and I would love for you to share your ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ฅ๐๐ง below:
- Place it all in ONE pile.
- Sort piece by piece into subjects.
- Shred obvious garbage.
- Pull necessary keepers.
- Clip subjects together.
- Title each pile.
- Transfer the Information.
Number ((7)) is KEY to ensuring that these Notes become useful. (If you need more detail on this step, please reach out).
Note-taking is good for four things:
โช๏ธReference
โช๏ธMemory Building/Review
โช๏ธIdeas/Observations
โช๏ธBrain-dumping
The rest is just unnecessary chatter that is filling valuable space.
So, if youโre stuck with a note paper rut, put these 7 Steps into ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง & let me know how it goes.
