on every flight, i scroll through the hundreds of notes in my phone. my recent JB1773 featured:

- forgotten to-dos and names of men i’ll never text

- the letters i wrote to my best friend at the start of every red eye i’d take in high school on the way back from national team training, knowing full well i’d see her in eight hours when i rolled up to first period late

- the list of planned trips that him and i will never end up taking (it’s for the best)

- the sweet little things people have said to me that they probably forget ever sharing but that i always read to myself in the midst of a bad day

- note after note from unexpected work meetings when i had to be more on-call than an ER surgeon and honestly revisiting those impresses me (how did i operate like that) and inspires me (how can i operate like that again)

- some paul graham quotes that he sent me

- some paul graham quotes that i sent him

- the first sentence of what would be an incredible first draft if i hadn’t gotten distracted

most people scroll through old photos. 

cooler people scroll through old notes - they capture a more focused point in timw

gonna start doing the same as @ted, maybe I’ll even find a forgotten goal

here’s some gold I found from 2013

/ted | exploring the onchain frontier | surfing @ venice, ca | eating @ gjusta / gjelina

building /wildcardclub. startup veteran, 10 years across teams big and small, prev. @ salesforce.com

you know what’s so funny about this - i actually have an old bag of “notes” but real notes. notes from 3rd grade all the way to senior year lol — it’s this large duffle FILLED with them! when my dad died i found them in my parents attic so every now and again i check them out! lol
