The mind keeps replaying what it thinks you might forget, and that quiet rehearsal is exhausting long before anything actually happens. This is the case for putting it outside your head: how a simple capture habit for tasks, worries, and half-formed ideas frees up working memory, why the notebook works better than the app for most people, and a system for trusting your own record so the mental replaying finally stops. Calm, practical, and grounded in relief.
