Stationery Obsession
Paul Graham's The Age of the Essay got me looking for ways to integrate "incremental improvement" into my programming projects. Then I came across Takeo Higuchi's Idea Marathon System, a veritable pyramid scheme of personal productivity. Higuchi-san promises that the IMS will "improve your work and revolutionize your life".
And if you're gonna change your life via the IMS, you'll need a good notebook. Joi Ito uses Moleskines, while Naziran Hamid waxes poetic on Miquelrius notebooks. For my money, the greatest notebook ever made (scroll to "Leather Look Notebooks") is anonymous, too big to ever fill, and features slick but tactile paper. Barnes and Noble stocks all of these. You might also enjoy the finest consumer-grade pen ever made, the Pilot V-Ball Grip.

Thanks for commenting about Idea-Marathon System (IMS) which I started in 1984 and since then I myself have been continuing and creating ideas and recording 207000 Ideas in my 298 notebooks.
This is the easiest and simpliest method for anybody to bring up the creativity, concentration, continuation power and patience.
If you start by youself, I will be of your helf.
For your ref, University of Virginia Technology Dept using this IMS for 7 years now.
I am planning to visit USA again this Sep, then maybe we can see.

The Founder of IMS
