I had a footnote to add to this post: "Surround yourself with inducers, not inhibitors", explaining with further examples and related comments.
But I forgot what I was going to add.
It was a thought I had while still in my waking phase and I didn't capture it immediately.
Capturing your thoughts and ideas is oh so important. It allows your future self to use them.
