Why Paper Planning Still Works Better Than Digital
There's this weird pressure to go fully digital with your planning and note-taking, like using paper somehow means you're falling behind. But despite spending over 20 years working in tech and running a digital business, the two most critical tools for staying on top of time and maximizing productivity are actually paper and pencil. It's not about being old-school or resistant to technology. There's actual neuroscience behind why your brain works differently when you write things down versus typing them out.
Today, you'll discover the three brain benefits that make paper planning superior for retention, memory formation, and focus. You'll also learn when digital tools are the better choice and how to use a hybrid approach that gives you the best of both worlds. If you've been trying to force yourself to go fully digital but something just isn't working, you're about to understand exactly why.
In This Episode, I'll Cover:

- How motor memory and spatial anchoring help you remember better
- Why paper reduces distractions and helps you prioritize information
