Throwing notes away is not growing. Growing is understanding that inanimate things don't have control over your life.

This whole "philosophical" article that basically says "I've removed my notes because they were giving me anxiety" is a confirmation that this is just yet another phase in author's life.

> Throwing notes away is not growing.

You don’t get to define that. The author does, it’s their life.

The action taken here was not just the deletion, it was the reflecting, the identification of a problem, the thinking of a solution, the courage to follow through with something irreversible, the willingness to try something.
