My Workflow

• I collect my thoughs using Google Keep on my phone (Google Keep is one of the only three applications present on my home screen along with Calm and Anki).

• I collect notes during my readings using Google Keep (by entering them manually or taking a screenshot) and annotate them with comments (why I found the information interesting? Why it resonates in me?), something not possible when highlighting using my e-reader.

• I review my notes during a one-hour weekly session every Friday where the goals are multiple: empty my Google Keep notes taken the last week by editing them along my existing notes, review my weekly objectives and plan the next week.

• I organize my notes using a variant of the PARA system:
