We used to have to write the date at the top of every work page in school and draw a margin strictly with a ruler. At the time naturally I hated the arbritrariness of it but I really appreciate it as an adult. It feels a lot easier to be confident and break away impostor syndrome when you work with little rituals like this. Similar to how I was taught to write with all caps on engineering documents for legibility. It makes very little actual difference, it just feels professional, and I think inspires me to take a little more pride and care in other areas.
