I thought of a way to take notes in the bath

In our daily lives and while working, there is a mountain of things we have to think about.

However, when good ideas or solutions don't easily come to mind, I introduced the idea in a previous article of "writing down inspirations you have in the bath."

This is because the inspirations you have at these times are often quite useful and practical.

Please use this as a reference along with my "tips for coming up with ideas."

While soaking in the bathtub and relaxing, I suddenly have an inspiration, thinking, "That's it! I'll do this!"

In that article, I practiced the method of "writing it down on a notepad prepared in the dressing room as soon as I get out of the bath so I don't forget," but there were several times when I forgot what I was going to write while drying off or doing other things.

It's a pathetic story, but even when I try to remember and write it down, I can't recall it at that moment. (It's not a problem since I remember it later, though.)

It's a waste to let such great inspirations go to waste, so I thought about whether there was a better way, and I thought about this in the bath as well.

And then, I had another inspiration.

That was, "If you have an inspiration in the bath, write it down immediately."

As for where to write, I looked into waterproof notepads, whiteboards that can be used underwater, and various other things, but when I checked, they were all quite expensive, and the reviews weren't very good either.

I thought, "I'll just go and take a look," so I went to a home improvement store, but nothing caught my eye.

Next, I went to a 100-yen shop, and since they were selling whiteboards and special pens for 100 yen each, I decided to buy them to try out.

When I tried using them in the bath right away, I couldn't write well.
The ink wouldn't come out.

I thought it was a defective product, but when I got out of the bath and tried writing with it, it worked fine.

That's when I realized: "It doesn't work when it's humid."

I thought about how I could remove the moisture in the bath to be able to write. The method was quite simple.

"Hang a towel in front of the whiteboard." That's all it took.

The photo above shows it shifted for clarity, but in reality, the whiteboard is hidden by the towel.

In this state, after wiping my hands thoroughly with (another) towel, if I remove the front towel only when I want to write, I can write properly.

This alone solved the problem of not being able to write due to humidity.
It was a very close and delicate matter.

In the end, I didn't have to spend thousands of yen, and was able to solve it for 200 yen for a board and a pen.
I'm relieved for the time being with this.

Please add this to my previous article, "How to take good notes."

If you also want to write something in the bath, please give it a try.

Thank you for reading.
I would be happy if you could like and follow me. I look forward to your continued support.
