It started with “just this once…”

Hi ,


I usually keep my files organized.

Keyword: usually.


Dropbox is my go-to. It’s the sacred temple of structure.

But sometimes — just sometimes — clicking “Save to Desktop” feels so much easier in the moment.


Fast forward to today: I got a new computer.

Which should be exciting.


Instead, it turned into a digital scavenger hunt.


My files?

Scattered like breadcrumbs across folders, desktops, downloads, and maybe the void.


Now I’m spending hours dragging, dropping, and trying to remember what “Final_V2_EDITED_REAL_FINAL” was even for.


And the worst part?

It’s not just the wasted time.

It’s the emotional mess.


First: frustration.

Why didn’t I just take the extra 5 seconds to save things properly?


Second: the quiet panic that I’ve lost something.

Some file, somewhere, that I’ll only realize is missing after I need it.


All of this — the chaos, the stress, the wasted afternoon —

Could’ve been avoided with one tiny habit I already knew worked.


Funny how skipping the basics doesn’t feel like a big deal…

Until it quietly snowballs into a full-blown project.


So this is your friendly reminder:

Whatever your “Dropbox habit” is — keep doing it.


Future you will throw you a party.


Relentlessly dedicated to your profitability,
