Dealing with complexity is like crossing a river by feeling the stones (originally ๆธ็็ณๅคด่ฟๆฒณ)
There is unfamiliar territory, fast flow with murky waters. You may not know the next step until your foot is firmly on the ground. Probe and iterate.
I wonder if removing constraints of tracking and structure can increase productivity. I'm taking more notes with @RoamResearch, I don't think about structure. What if I apply the same to exercising, writing, reading? Just do it.
You'll be lucky if there is documentation readily available. Your first few weeks are the perfect time to demand documentation. It's the only time toย ask stupid questions.ย And donโt forget to contribute to documentation as youโre learning things.
Reading a book while taking notes in @RoamResearch is much slower, BUT at least now I remember something and can even go look it up. And it adds to my graph, win-win.
