In our day-to-day lives we have plenty of distractions. With the advent of every new technology , the number of distractions keep increasing. But at the end of the day, the work that needs to be done has to be done.
Increasing pressure at work, and the proliferation of the hustle culture, just adds to the pressure. Hence it becomes harder and harder to do good productive work.
The best work one can achieve is by being in a state of complete focus called the flow state.
Finance tracking is essential if we need to track our expense and avoid lifestyle inflation. But there is only so much information our brain can hold.

Human mind is complex machine , it can do many things very well, but the area where it lacks is perfect recall. Though it looks cool in movies when the main character is able to remember something exactly, in real life it gets much more murkier.
