My note-taking process has evolved over time. Initially, I wrote notes in the margins of books, but now I type them up afterward. Its easier to organize and search through them when I need to.
Sometimes I wonder if Im being too detailed in my notes. I want to find a balance between thoroughness and simplicity, so I dont feel overwhelmed later. How do others navigate that balance?
Has anyone else noticed that their notes evolve over time? The first few times I wrote something, I thought I knew it all. But now, revisiting those notes shows how my understanding has deepened and changed.
Creating visual connections between my notes has proven helpful. I sometimes draw mind maps or lists that connect themes and topics I've explored. This method has definitely enhanced my retention of the material.
