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,
