What would you rather spend a free Saturday doing

Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the first draft for a while.

This is probly obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. trips got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

Would love to hear how other people handle this. I am especially curious about the version that works on a tired weekday, not just on an ideal Sunday

I picked Not for me, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. I keep a note about budget for exactly this reason

What would you change if you started over? A little friction removed goes a long way

I picked Yes, definitely, mostly becuase it feels easiest to live with. I would write it down before changing anything else
