Effective notes taking
- Choose the right tool: digital or paper, whatever works for you;
- Give your notes structure: this focuses your thinking and simplifies review and retrieval;
- Record whatever’s important or interesting: questions, key insights, quotes, diagrams, etc.;
- Use symbols so you can quickly scan your notes later: e.g.: "*" for important/insightful or "?" for things that require further research;
- Schedule time to review your notes.
