PARADIGM: Just do it now

Tuesday, July 8, 2025

Just do it now.

Seems simple.

Nike says “Do it” but that seems too simple.

Wife says “do it NOW!” But that seems impossible.

So I’ve come up with a new “heuristic”  — heuristic (rule of thumb)  — for myself.

Have a thought?

Estimate time to complete!

If less than a minute, be NIKE and “just do it”.

If less than FIVE minutes AND time permits, listen to wife and “do it NOW!”

For all other ideas, tasks, dikw (i.e., data, information, knowledge, wisdom), just “capture it”!

When “capturing”: first option is use GOOGLE TASKS, second option is write it in my Little Black Book in my back pocket, third is scribleit somewhere to be transcribed later, fourth is dictate to Siri or any such tool.

Let’s see how that works?

APPLICATION: Address Book — anyone have a good solution?

Sunday, November 14, 2021

I’m really tired of struggling with various address books  — IOS, OSX, Android, Google.  Does anyone have an evernote template that could be the universal address book.  I remember an old Windoze app “Little Black Book” that just allowed one to print out specialize address books for different purposes.  For example, I used to print various ones for older relatives that only had “their” items of interest.  Now, it just seems to be a virtually impossible to print something that would look like an address book without a lot of manual effort.  Any suggestions?
