Did you see a significant productivity increase? Did your motivation to work on long projects change? Did it help you get over roadblocks in long project? (I tend to lose motivation whenever I struggle to make progress for more than 3 hours in a row.) How do you decide what goes inside of the system and what doesn’t? (we have search engines and chatgpt that can quickly give us the information we want for most things) How do you keep the information up to date, for example if you read a research paper and later it is partially disproven?
Thank you! Looking forward to learning about your experiences :)

people love logseq for this type of note taking. the idea is you have a daily journal that creates a new page (from a template if you like), and you use backlinks to connect ideas. then you can click on any subject you’ve journaled about and it’ll bring up a list of places where you’ve mentioned this thing. For example if you’re learning a programming language, you can just type
[[clojure]]and it’ll show up on theclojurepage.I have a template that has an embedded page that keeps track of tasks I’m currently focusing on, a section for my random musings and journalings throughout the day.
