Your Memory Can’t be Trusted

You might have a good memory. You might remember all sorts of details other people seemingly don't.

But your memory is bad.

Maybe not day today, maybe not right now. But overtime it lies to you.

You either misremember things or forget things.

When you find some other blog you have no memory of ever starting, with words you wrote 21 years ago, you begin to question your memories.

Why is it you forgot those things?

Write down the boring things. Write down the things that only matter to you. Make sure these written down words can be found again much later.

It brings items back into focus. Lets you know you did know about things.

Your memory just failed you. Don't beat yourself up too much.
