Hi all,
I am curious how you use your MOCs to organize your vaults.
Nick Milo’s LYT example is really nice, but seems super complex to me.
I think I get why MOCs are useful, but I am also looking from inspiration elsewhere.
Do you dump all your notes in a single folder and then make MOCs to help navigate them?
Have you been using tags?
Are there any tips/best practices on maintaining MOCs?
I’ve been using a directory structure based on the note’s subjects, but quickly bumped into a problem: some notes fit in more than one subject.
Tags have been of help, but it’s getting out of hand the way I use them.
I believe using MOCs might be the answer for me, but I also fear it might be too cumbersome to maintain.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Hehe. Sorry if I put you on the spot; that wasn’t the intention, really. (And: IDMA. “I don’t mind acronyms”)
MOCs – I guess I use them all the time, but not in a systematic way. I’m a folder guy, so I use folder notes fairly consistently. I also try to use “landing pages” for specific projects, with links to all the various bits of contents, so that I have everything in one place. But again: fairly unsystematically.
In general all those kinds of systems tend to make me think that they require a whole lot of thinking about thinking rather than the thinking itself…
I’ve been doing too much thinking about thinking lately… To avoid thinking about thinking later. So far, it didn’t accomplish much.
The folder notes plugin is new to me and it’s neat. I’ll play with it. Thanks!
I have ADHD and I’m trying to find a balance between structure and maintenance requirements.
