Writing with a pen vs digitally

Benefits of writing digitally

• editable
• fast – can get into your flow
• permanent – you can keep it forever
• private – you can guarantee it will not be read by someone

Benefits of writing in a physical notebook

• slows you down – allows the thoughts to simmer
• feels more real – enables better visualization
• more flexible – draw, tables, whatever you want – better for brainstorming in this sense

So one is a quick dump. One is a slow upload.
