Taking Notes

I’m a phenomenal notetaker. Legible, too. There was never a professor who talked faster than I could write. My scribing made lectures enjoyable; all I had to do was sit and write what I heard and what I thought. It was a meditation.

The only problem is note taking is entirely useless in the real world. Just download https://otter.ai and you’ll never need another notebook.

What I thought was a valuable skill was only as valuable as it made me feel accomplished. The act itself was replaceable. It served its purpose of helping me learn, but aside from that is futile.

You are spending a lot of time crafting a replaceable skill. What is it?
