If you find what you need when you need it, is never doing a nonspecific review really a problem? Notes are just a tool to support you in achieving your goals. If you don't need to recall information instantaneously, skipping review-as-memorization is just fine. If important items aren't being inadvertently neglected and falling through the cracks, skipping review-as-reflection is ok too.
- tartoran 6y agoYou are absolutely right and that’s how I use my notes. But I was wondering how others deal with this as Im sure smarter and more organized people, people who are obsessed with building good habits have systems that are way better than mine. Just looking at mindmaps I get excited a bit but could never really get down to it. I always felt I was missing on how to get started writing smarter notes but if it’s something too tedious it beats the purpose for me, I already use notetaking as a tool which pretty much works out okayish
