Founder of Open AI, Sam Altman, journals every day.
He has said, “Writing is a tool for thinking”.
Meta-analyses show that brief journaling sessions reduce stress while expanding working-memory capacity.
Here’s a tool I’ve found to make this effortless.
It’s called Super Whisper – it captures your voice and turns it into written text (I’m not adding screenshots of the install because it’s the simplest UX I’ve seen to date).
Here’s my voice note this AM that I wrote for the newsletter.

Seeing how often I use “so” in my speech has been humbling.
The upside though is it is capturing all the shitty & great thoughts I have when I’m too busy to write them all down.
Being a founder/ trying new shit is stressful; capturing your thoughts somewhere before they become too much is a way to gain more time and execute faster.
