Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

@lordnikon@lemmy.world That's intriguing! I'll see if I like doing this in my obsidian daily note :) My daily note consists of a list of timestamps which I used a template to automatically place in my bullet pointed daily-note lists, each timestamp has a thought that I have next to it usually, so I'll try incorporating those descriptions you're talking about into that!

Cool yeah also note it's not like a once a day thing. You could be out and about at the grocery store. The idea is to remind yourself like set an alarm if you have to. To just pause for a moment the idea is you are trying to take in the sights , sounds, and feelings in that moment and store therm in long term memory. Internal narration helps draw a more vivid picture for long term storage. That way the year does not fly by. When you go from task to task.
