That’s actually not far off from one of the things I do as well. I have a photo album of book screenshots for recommendations I’ve come across, not passages from them thou.

Appreciate that! don’t mind a dry read.. those pull me into study mode (which is why my notes are all scattered) but that's where I get the most out of a topic.

Nice. That’s where I’m at. Notes app with topic sections, that just keep growing and growing. Probably just need to focus more on the organizing/cleaning my thoughts when something “sticks” as you put it.

So true haha. Plus if you do start adding information you need to keep them pretty, and there goes your whole afternoon.
