Thanks for the note! I'm one of the creators. I've had this experience a number of times. I start out energized and wanting to be super organized. I over-organize. Then 1 or 2 months later, I can't keep up. I stop using my or

Great deep dive into core principles of a good note-taking system. There are a few things I'd add. Curious to hear your thoughts. > 1) Captured ideas are better than missed ones > 2) Adding new ideas is better than updating old o

I've found that in meetings, I mostly just need short quick notes. I don't need entire documents and structure. Instead, I jot down a few of the most important key ideas and action items. After the meeting, I add my action items i
