For my interests in horticulture/taxonomy/botany I enjoy my digital experience
Buy for task management / todo lists i find it impossible and good old paper is the best for me

@jaslar rRght, the decreasing memory half-value time comes on top of that. That’s why I need to write down more. But maybe again, this also creates a vicious circle because now I feel I don’t need to remember anything since it’s all in my notes and to do lists. Not sure, is not having anything in memory the famous “mind like water” and should I see it positive?
Also thanks for the handwriting tipps. Probably will need some time and training to regain the necessary fine motor skills.

Heh, I’ll remember that, next time somebody mocks my failing memory: “mind like water,” I shall say, with an inscrutable smile…
