When I look back at something I made before, I sometimes realize that it's better than before. However, if you don't know when it was created, it will be difficult to clearly see its growth. Keeping the day you made it is not just for memories. When you share something you made or care about, it helps to think about how it will be useful to the other person.
If you have records, you can see changes.
If you have a date, you can compare it with, "A month ago, it stopped here" or "I used to say it this way." People tend to focus on what they can't do, but if you have records, it's easier to see where you've made good progress.
Small records will give you the strength to continue
Add the date to the name of the work, write it on the edge of the notebook, and separate the editions. Even if the things you do are small, you will be able to see how much you have accumulated. Growth does not change dramatically every day, and it often becomes visible later. Children who can leave evidence of this are strong.
Next time you create something, try adding a date or number in the title or file name.
At Digital Kodomo BASE, we value not only the one time, but the accumulation. Recording will support your future self.
