I think the notebook is key. Right now my personal system is slightly disorganized, but the act of physically using your hand to write something down really helps lock it into memory. If I write something down, I usually don't even have to refer back to it. If I don't write it down, or simply type it, the effect is totally lost.
This is definitely my personal experience, but there is plenty of research to back this up as well.
I'm a full-stack web developer who loves to garden, cook, read, and dance. I enjoy the ritual of making coffee, and sometimes I crave cheese and other times I crave fish sauce.

, also for handwriting, my fav new thing from this past year has been writing w erasable Japanese pens and markers: jetpens.com/blog/pilot-frixion-era... I buy them at Japanese stationary stores.
The erasers don't produce debris like normal erasers. I love them. Just fair warning, don't leave your notebook in high heat because it will fade the pen/marker marks

This is me. I always write it down and never refer to it but always remember
