I forgot how much difference a large visual workspace makes... 15 minutes with 4x3 whiteboard and I figured out something that was defeating me on index cards and laptop-screen scapple mindmaps and notebook paper. It's not good for everything, but when it works, it works.

I fantasies about having a whiteboard sized scapple board. Maybe when the consumer VR becomes affordable and intuitive

Before I moved out of Oakland I was looking at replacing a wall of bookshelves with whiteboard or whiteboard paint. I think differently by sketching, listing, stickynoting, etc. with my whole arm and body. And the overnight persistence is useful too.

Like coming to conclusions when one takes a walk, something about the posture and the movement and the space allows different thinking.

It makes a HUGE difference! I can’t afford a whiteboard yet but my business partner and I have gotten good at improvising 😂

Business planning with $0 budget means improvising a white board with an old used coloring pad

1. An A3 pad is a substitute when you don't have wallspace
2. A0 sticky flip charts are also good

Writeable whiteboard walls are pretty addictive too. The physics department had a small conference room with a writable wall on each floor.
When I worked for NRL, my boss had big old lab remodeled with floor to ceiling whiteboards on three walls, large windows on the other wall.
