Although we live in a largely digital age, sometimes deleting a message just doesn’t give the same satisfaction as crossing something off your to-do list with good old-fashioned pen.
I’m a firm believer in putting pen to paper to organize your thoughts and stay organized throughout the day, which is why no New Year’s celebration would be complete without breaking out a new planner or agenda.
Studies have shown that writing things down better helps you to remember things than simply adding them to your digital calendar, and can even help lower stress levels as the practice of journaling can help with daily mindfulness. Plus, we’re already getting too much screen time as it is, so a paper notebook can even provide a much-needed break from your computer.
