Review: The busy person's way to journal and remember the important stuff in life

I've forgotten a million important things in my life. I always say I'm going to start journaling to keep track, but it's too time-consuming because I want to remember everything if I'm going to do it. Who wants to journal for 2 hours every night? Not me. So it goes undocumented, and over time I simply forget.This is why I love Joel's system so much. He made it for people like me who want to remember, reference, and share information and memories but don't want to spend hours on a journal every night. Not only is the information getting tracked now with Joel's system, it is also far easier for me to find than it would be in a stack of journals anyway.If you are a writer of any kind of nonfiction (like me) this is an excellent system for documenting and remembering what and who you know. We just bought a fixer-upper house in Spain, and I'm curating the experience so I can write about it later. If this turns into a book, it will be because curating allowed me to capture all the details (because I'm too tired at night to journal it all out).If you feel like you're forgetting meaningful events, people, and places in your life, this method is for you.
