Item 5: Colorful Pens / Fonts
There's just something about writing with colorful pens or using pretty fonts that makes me so much more engaged in writing my notes. Maybe it's the dopamine boost, maybe it’s just aesthetics, either way, it works for me.
When my notes or lists look good, I want to look at them. I actually feel a little joy while planning, which helps reduce resistance and makes organization feel playful instead of punishing.
This is one of those small tools that makes a big difference. It turns the chaos into something a bit more beautiful, and that alone makes it worth it.
