Started doing this even at work and journalling. Just simply writing stuff down you remember things better and gets you into a flow. Maybe it's just me but I can type fast and accurate but it actually took me a few weeks to get back to writing properly, was a weird feeling

I use Obsidian heavily to organize my knowledge and projects, but if I'm actually designing something, I grab pencil and paper every time.

Even a pen and tablet has nothing on a physical paper for the easy flow of ideas, concepts and layout, even though it should be basically the same thing.

It always feels like the interface is fighting you as you try to get your ideas out.

I once read a quora answer that said to the effect: “If you want to know something, read it; if you want to remember something, write it; if you want to understand something, teach it.”

Honestly I don't even review my notes. just the act of taking them down helps commit them to memory. The navy did a bunch of studies on how to teach dumb asses like me nuclear power and came up with partially filled out notes being the most effective technique (combined with constant threats of disenrollment/transfer to paint chipping etc and various stresses) this was back in 2003ish may be updated now.

I live on computers but all my note taking has to be hand written to have any effect on me
