Mychael Hyatt @ Working Smart: Sometimes Life Is Like Skiing:
“I’ve especially missed blogging during the last thirty days. I find that blogging makes me slow down just enough to process what is happening around me and in me. It helps me clarify my thoughts and keeps me focused.”

Mychael Hyatt at Working Smart writes about Recovering the Lost Art of Note-Taking. I also use note-taking mostly as a way of staying focused, but I am lacking some sort of the note-organizing techniques he mentions:
- Use symbols so you can quickly scan your notes later.
- Schedule time to review your notes.
Bert Webb follows with some more suggestions on Power Note-Taking that include using codes and keywords for follow-up. Bert’s angle is quite different, as he uses a PDA, while Michael uses a Moleskine journal.
