I was still using notepads and paper diaries for years into my tech career. Finally decided to embrace the tech. You can take better notes when writing but I find taking fewer notes tends to focus the notes I do take. Basically I only care about action points for me nowadays rather than trying to document everything.
It's a hangover from my designer days, I've always had a sketch book on the go, even if it's just to document really terrible lyrics or the pages and pages of InDesign measurements for graphs I was making... They're a bit mental to look back through... 👉🙃
