Where would you be without me? I saved us! It was me! We survived because of me!

My notebook notes are from Comprehensions and stuff I was making-up. I initially had interest in taking notes from actual Kung-Fu class. I later come to think of notes as cheating myself of learning in that I put energy into noting it or archiving instead of training to retain the studies. I might be able to review notes instead of practice almost every day or what I need to help get it.

People understand differently and notes are perhaps good and sometime they won't need notes for themselves or for teaching. It might be an ideal I have at the moment is all.

I use notes for archiving and reviewing thoughts for the stuff I had been making-up--Ernie Moore Jr.'s Kung-Fu, Squirrel.

Man that brings back memories. I'm gonna have to go and look for all my notebooks.

I'd keep notes because I knew at some point things would change and I possibly wouldn't be in the same position to keep training. So I'd take notes for reference in the future, and also to help better learn the things I was learning at the time.

Great post!
