Be comfortable with forgetting

What we write down is what we remember. Not everything mentioned in a class is important, not everything needs to be remembered. Therefore, not everything needs to be written down.

The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary that the necessary may speak. Only write what is absolutely needed using the USE method.
