NOTE

Utilizing Sticky Notes for Daily Focus

Using a sticky note to set a daily highlight helps prioritize tasks by focusing on the most urgent or important task for the day.

Stick it in the kitchen, stick it on the dashboard of your car. And then you just see that thing and you're like, right, that's the thing. I wanna make sure I bring my peak energy to. And then at the end of the day, you look back and you see if you did it. I think that that practice simply of identifying it and writing it down somewhere that I can see it.
