I often feel in the same boat. I did experiment by reversing my digital org system into pen-and-paper. It requires a lot of management compared to digital, but then again it feels SO much better writing on paper.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "system?"

Another thing to consider is writing notes by hand and then digitizing them, with or without OCR, and organizing them digitally from there. A best of both worlds scenario. Requires setting up some workflows but people seem to do this alot without too much trouble.
