Mima Ito Notebook

Dai - When I was watching Match for Mima Ito I saw her reviewing notes in a notebook and I felt that I needed this very much in championships and matches. When I play Match, I don't have focus. What do you advise me to do a notebook and how do I do it and how do I make plans for Match and write it. Is this notebook useful or not?

Jasper - Which non-Chinese player do you think will win the WTTC next?
