Articles
Since January 2024, I’ve published 34 posts on topics like the personal unconscious, time, the future, anger, the body, therapy and food. This is about 10 posts less than last year. If I didn’t feel like I had anything to write about, I simply didn’t write anything. Experimenting with different styles and formats (eg. A conversation, a how-to guide or very short sentences) helped a bit. Personally, 2024 has been about unravelling compulsions, whether it be habits or feelings like anger or resentment so that I can make more normal choices.

Notes
On average I record 5-7 notes to myself per day into Apple Notes. Topics range from dreams to creativity to philosophy and everything in between. Many are too personal to be of any use to share publicly. The majority are only one or two sentences that I think are worth saving. Below, I’ve curated 189 of my favorites.
