I will talk about two parts that are very important. I highly recommend that you read through until the end of this post because the second one will be learning how it can improve your life. First I want to talk about the note to self meaning.
This is something I started doing late in my life. I should’ve done this when I was young but didn’t think of it. However, it’s never late to do this. And I know some of my already doing. If you didn’t do it before, I have a good solution for you because it’s not so easy for some people. You will know this in this post as well. Please consider sharing this if you find it helpful.

As you already know from what I mentioned earlier that this is two parts. And I will break it down for you and share important points and information about this. The first part of this post will be mentioning the meaning of note to self. Maybe you already know in a different way.
However, I’m going to mention the definition and more details to help us. I’m going to say, it’s very important and if you don’t do this. You will need to follow the tips in this post. You will know as you keep reading the tips and information. Well, this post is one of the posts that I share from my experience and things that I learned over the past years.
Q: What does note to self meaning is?
A: If you have this question in your mind, good. Because it’s the first part of this post. It’s simple, the “note to self” is a note to oneself as a reminder to do something important. Have you done something like this before? That’s great, this is what the meaning of this is. You can add this to your dictionary if you didn’t know about it before.
I think many English speakers would know about it. But some of us don’t do it usually because of distractions. Maybe they feel lazy doing something like this. And how pronounce something like this can make a difference. Therefore, that’s why I wanted to mention it.
Ways to write notes to self?
- Write using your phone
- The small notebook you crazy with
- Write on paper when available
Well, these are good ways to help you to write and remember something important note. It’s very important to keep a notebook with you all the time. This way, no matter when or where you will be ready to write notes. And keep them as a reminder for late not forget about it.
FYI
I mention paper when available meaning if there is something important and don’t have a phone or notebook. Look for a way to find a paper and a pen. Especially, when you have much stuff to remember. Whether it’s files, emails, or anything important. It won’t be good if you don’t focus on the moment to write because you will forget.
Allow me to share some good quotes about notes to self. Things help me and I hope it will help you.
Blast through your wall of self doubt and let your passion ignite you!
By Julie Hage
You cannot control what happens to you but you can control your attitude towards what happens to you. By Brian Tracy.
You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them. By Michael Jordan
This is something you need to do. And I find some friends fall under one category and others in a different one. With how to write notes to remember. Although it sounds more like journaling this post is about note to self meaning. It’s good when you do this without any struggle.
Important point
Make sure to determine your category of writing the notes and journaling. Which one makes you enjoy doing it? Because that will help you with doing this. If you are just starting, find what is best and the way that suits you. Start practicing slowly until it’s easy for you to write.
Two ways of writing notes to self
- Physical writing with your hand and book
- Digital writing and using apps on your phone or laptop
Note: Please, make sure to have clear lyrics and sentences when writing notes. Trust me, I’ve been into so many troubles because I couldn’t understand. Either for writing fast or not paying attention to what I write. However, if you use digital, you would be good and no need to worry.
Here starts the second part of this post. I’m going to share why and how it can help improve your life. It means reasons why you need to start doing it.
You will have less stress in your life
Well, the first one is very important. You will be able to have less stress. And you may be asking how can that happen. It’s easy because when you have something to remember if you don’t write it down. The anxiety and stress will get to you. Because you will be worrying too much about what you need to do. No matter what is it and either a short note or a long one. Ensure to write it down and don’t worry about anything.
This is something I have been through in the past. And trust me, it is not good to let yourself go through it. Although you would feel lazy to write in some situations it’s very important. You will end up worrying a lot and nothing good will come from not doing it, you know. It will just make you stay busy thinking of the things you want to do.
Always stay on track with things in life
Another cool part about the note to self is that it helps you to stay on track. How many times have you missed a task or done something important because you forgot? If you want to stay on track and never miss something. I highly recommend that you start writing notes down. This way, you will be able to know everything. Also, can be easy to get back to later.
It’s very good for busy moms and parents. People who have a lot of work and need to get it done. This will be a life savior for you and allow you to do them all. Because I’m going to mention soon what would happen if you don’t do it. Something you need to avoid in any business or anything in life.
Organize important things and maintain being organized
Next, written notes to self can help you also to keep things organized. And maintain it for as long as possible. This is very important because if your life is a mess. Things will start to go down for you. That is something no one of us wants. Therefore, I highly recommend doing it for the sake of organized life.

And if you keep your notes organized, you will make life much much easier for you. Which is something I learned the hard way and had to get into trouble for this. I already mentioned another thing which is the font. You don’t want to have messy writing that you can’t understand. Focusing on both can help you. Having too many files, emails, or anything. Always make sure everything is easy to read and access.
Avoid setbacks and ruining the progress you do in life
Remember the stay on track. Well, if you are not on track or miss something. You will have setbacks and fall behind in the progress you do. However, if you focus on notes to self and pay more attention to them. That can help you to avoid that and it helps to make your life better.
I also struggled with this a lot. Because I used to miss some things. And skip important tasks that I needed to do. Later it resulted in me going back into the progress, This is something that I don’t want anyone to go through. For that, I highly recommend focusing on writing notes and reminders.
Being aware of what you and succeed
Let’s say that you are doing this. And avoiding setbacks and ruining progress. That can help you to succeed. And that one reason can be enough to be aware. Especially, being aware of important things in life. It’s not just notes to self meaning but more how things can help you in life.

I completely agree! Taking notes and keeping reminders can really help stay organized, so that you never miss a deadline or forget an important task. Keeping track of your notes and reminders in a book or digital way makes it very easy to access, making it so much more convenient than trying to remember everything. It may take a bit of getting used to at first but in the end it’s definitely worth the effort!
Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts on this. Tracking is important.
I can understand how this could be helpful. I have never done this before, but I am more of a calm, composed nature

I send notes to myself, almost always the old- fashioned way, using pen and paper. It’s too easy to forget things. I rely on these notes as reminders.
