About taking notes.
I used to do that. But not sure why I stopped. Perhaps because of my nasty habit of procrastination. Or maybe the list grew too big to act upon. 🤣
This comment made me go back to the notes, and frankly speaking, most of it does not make any sense. LOL!!
A glimpse of the Notes.

As for my topics, I am just trying to organise them. As you pointed out, sticking to one topic would be boring. 😅 So I am leaving room for my random thoughts also. But let's see if I am able to pump 4 posts a week in orderly fashion or if I succumb to the pressure and spiral into total chaos.
Do you have any HIVE plans for next year? I see you are making a return to the Hive at its lowest. 😅
Nice notes. When you forgot the story behind each of one, it'll be interesting to invent or reinvent them.
Almost seems you also got inspired by Netflix, with the 8-episode 'being dad' series 🥳
I tend to add a bit more context when I take notes, for the reason that I kinda 'remember' what the core part of the story I thought of when taking the notes. Anyways, you'll be able to handle the 4 posts a week. I fnot every week, then just add a bit more posts some of the weeks.
My plans for HIVE: I have none, except I try and curate every day. These days we can curate for two days, or even three days, without penalty, so I should be able to use all my powers. For the rest, I have zero plans. I write whenever I feel like it (which will not be every day, perhaps every few days, or maybe even once a week or whatever). I will continue to not only vote for posts but also engage, since I do like the engagement and that is what HIVE is all about imho. So that in itself, you can take as my plan. How it'll work out, time will tell 🙂
EDIT
Forgot to answer your second question...
Well, I usually go against the flow. When HIVE up, many become active. When HIVE down, many become silent. So I go for an anti-wave 🙂 I am considering converting some of my monthly income into HIVE tokens. Nice time to do so. For tax reasons, I wait for 2026. Let's see if HIVE is bottoming out by then.
