Thanks for the elaborate reply. > I get where you're at, though. You don't get value from taking notes until you've taken a lot of notes and it takes forming the habit of taking notes to get that value Exactly, I think.. I struggle with the details of the notes I take. Maybe it is just practice. Do I take a one-liner, a paragraph? Pictures? In between? My current way of working is to have a Todoist [0] filled with tasks, properly tagged and assigned to projects. Emails that need action go into Todoist, tasks from meetings go into Todoist, any tasks I come up with, Todoist. Next to this I have a Pocket [1] filled with articles, both to read later but I also use it as reference material and future use. Also properly tagged (most of times). Now that leaves only notes that are not actions. Either from content that is too large to have in my pocket (say longer than a blog post) or not from any content I can send to Pocket at all. Probably the freeflow nature of these comments is what makes it hard for me to write them down. Granularity, quality, and governance are hard here. On my previous tries I either ended up with a huge pile of messy notes I never used or with too few notes that didn't accurately cover my thoughts at the time, i.e. needed to redo the process the note originated from. I'll try again. Maybe this time things go right. If it is practice there is no shortcut to become a successful note-taker it seems.
