 Writing things down is so powerful because it not only brings you clarity, but it can organize information by taking the jumble out of your head and putting it on paper. It can also improve your memory and recall of that information. It allows for easy reference down the road when you want to go back and revisit things. And studies actually find that the process of writing things down on paper can enhance neurological connections in your brain, making it easier to understand, which is why when you're writing intentions, goals, if you're studying something, whatever you're doing, writing things down is what's going to be the most beneficial for you.
