Right now it feels like a lot of extra work to do it right. So I just postponed watching valuable content, because I need it to watch while taking notes. It is different to when I just watched videos and felt smart for a minute. Only to forget about it in a week...

I find having the annotator plugin for my PDFs helps, as I can make my notes in the first pass including explicitly making all the links I want to to other documents.

Previously I'd do a quick read through and then a very detailed read to make notes manually. Finding the energy for the 2nd step was sometimes a challenge.
