Your Brain Has Too Many Tabs Open

Remember when you didn’t have to remember everything? When your biggest problem was choosing between recording over your favorite mixtape or waiting an hour to download a single song on Napster? When you had to memorize your best friend’s landline?

Now? Your brain is a tangled mess of to-do lists, Slack pings, and 40+ open Chrome tabs.

But here’s the thing—forgetting isn’t failure. It’s a feature. Research on incubation periods (the reason why your best ideas happen in the shower and not at your desk) suggests that stepping away often leads to our best breakthroughs.

That’s the idea behind TTYL audio journals. It’s about remembering by letting go.

Record anything: Small gratitudes, shower thoughts, dumb jokes, conversations, bold predictions, late-night existential crises - and then forget all about it. Weeks or months later, you’ll randomly get your clip back (via sms or push). And because you weren’t looking for it, it lands differently.

With enough random moments, maybe you’ll accidentally stumble on something profound. Either way, you’ll create more, edit less, and listen differently.

It’s not about being productive. It’s about leaving raw, impromptu breadcrumbs for future-you. Teleporting across time - either solo, or with friends. A time machine, but way more chill.

Surprise yourself. You might discover something you didn’t know you were looking for.
