My Mind is a Mess 

It's time to put my mind in order.

My mind is a mess. Hundreds of unorganised notes to self are waiting to become part of a system. Dozens of podcasts that I once planned to listen to but apparently won't. Several emails every day, that follow a supposed clever categorisation system but disappear into oblivion if I don't check them daily.

An endless stream of content, constantly feeding my restless mind with more, when clearly, it needs less! What a mess my mind is. It doesn't need non-stop stimulation. It needs rest, it needs organisation, it needs system.

Why hello there, 2026, by the by. I haven't see you come in? Usually, I never have New Year's resolutions. But this year, everything's different. It's time to address the digital mess I have accumulated over the years. I'm looking at you, notes in Bear, bookmarks in Firefox, files in iCloud. And don't forget about photos on my iPhone, online accounts in general, contact cards, emails, podcasts, playlists, RSS feeds and apps.

It's time to put my mind in order.
