Mind of a Maker
A daily blog inspired by Matthew Dicks
“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.”
To become better at something, you have to practice. What better way to become a better writer and storyteller than to practice by making a habit of writing daily?
In this daily blog, we’ll discuss Maker-related topics as well as what inspires projects, including YouTube videos, Movies, TV Shows, Disney, Star Wars, LEGO, Books, and more. Everything is on the table, and nothing is off-limits.

I Have Too Many Ideas
My project list keeps growing with new ideas from everywhere—Disney, Star Wars, YouTube, and more—so I use a "second brain" to document inspirations, track sources, and combine ideas into unique projects I’ll share soon.
The PARA Method
Discover how implementing Tiago Forte's PARA method in Notion transformed my approach to organizing projects, areas of life, and resources, helping me stay focused, efficient, and clutter-free.
My Second Brain
Struggling to organize and remember ideas, I created a "second brain" using Notion, which helps me manage tasks, projects, and thoughts more efficiently by leveraging its database functionality, and I recommend others explore a similar system for improved organization.
