Learning to let go of it is the hardest thing of all. He is just a bit farther along on that path than you at the moment.

I have learned to forget everything that can be remembered easily with a quick google search, and let go of any paper or thing that can be easily reproduced from elsewhere. Cheap manufactured crap is easiest to let go, and cheap manufactured thoughts are the same.

You simply have a huge collection in your head. It isn’t really about organizing as much as selective forgetting until the time you actually need it. ;^)

Perhaps writing it down is the way to go, though. I look back at my blog sometimes and am amazed at what is there. And I can search it whenever I want!

The private stuff, of course, goes into the journals. ;^)
