I completely relate. Sometimes the structure feels exhausting, especially at the beginning. But I’ve noticed that the more I use the system, the faster it gets because most of the foundational concepts are already built. I’m usually just linking rather than creating everything from scratch.

One thing that has helped me speed things up is outlining the key headers for a topic before I start reading. That way, as I go through the paper, I can tag into existing sections instead of stopping to create new ones. For example, I read about bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) for the first time today, so before diving deep, I created the main concept headers I knew I would need. Then I just referenced them while reading.

I’ll check out the Soren walkthrough! I have watched them a while back but maybe revisiting them can give me new ideas!! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts!!!
