Minimize time-to-capture below three seconds for spontaneous

Minimize time-to-capture below three seconds for spontaneous thoughts by using voice-based or always-accessible tools, because friction at capture determines what material enters your cognitive system.

Why This Is a Principle

Derives from Exponential Information Decay (decay within minutes) and Behavior follows the path of least resistance due to the (behavior follows path of least resistance). The principle prescribes friction-reduction at capture as the primary design criterion for capture tools. The three-second threshold is derived from decay rate urgency.

The capture habit precedes all systems

No productivity or thinking system works without a reliable capture reflex. The system is not the bottleneck — the habit that feeds it is.
