Over-organizing is a great way to procrastinate.
Am I doing something useful or am I avoiding something that is intellectually more difficult?
I am not an archivist.
But I want to curate my notes and articles.
I am not making notes for legal documents.
Just for me.
For 99.99% of my notes, lists, notebooks, drafts, files… done is better than perfect.
If I can reliably find my notes and figure out later on what I meant when I wrote it, that’s all I need.
