I remain torn over the value of good note-taking.
On the one hand, my cognitive powers are only going to decline from here on out. It makes sense to build a second brain.
On the other, effectiveness does not seem to be bounded by note-taking ability.

I hate this because I know it's true and it describes me very well.
I use excuses like "my notes aren't good enough" and try to find ways to improve my note-taking instead of just taking more action which leads to me never actually taking action.
