Most productivity systems try to solve everything with more apps. But over time I realized something simple: thinking works better when it starts on paper. In this video I show the simple 3-item pocket productivity system I use every day — a notebook, a pen, and my phone — and how this small workflow helps me capture ideas, filter information, and avoid turning digital tools into clutter. Instead of building complicated productivity setups, I rely on a simple analog-digital workflow: • a notebook as a “second brain” • a quick daily capture system • a simple evening review • moving only the valuable ideas into digital tools You’ll see how I combine paper with digital tools like Notion for organizing books and video ideas, and Taste for saving films to watch later. This system helps me: • reduce phone usage • avoid digital clutter • capture ideas faster • stay focused without complex productivity apps If you're interested in digital minimalism, simple productivity systems, analog note-taking, or building a second brain without overwhelm, this workflow might help you simplify your thinking process. 💬 Question for you: Are you team digital or team paper?
