That statement is really hit me so hard. My pace sometimes went rush after a couple of minutes, and anything I try to learn become fogy.

And here I have one problem with taking a note. If you are saying always take note when doing a course.

  1. What exactly you write? I mean, all of it is code (for my case, I learn python).
  2. And how you organized it(the note)?

Maybe that's for now, thanks in advance.

Hello, thanks for reading and for your response!

When taking a course I usually write down pieces of code (creating snippets), in my notes; some problems I found and the solution for them; and basically I try to write a 'guide' of the course I'm taking because in case I forget something, watching every video over again would take so much time, but searching through my organized notes won't take that long.

I usually write everything, theory, code examples, explanation of what does every piece of code, that's it!

But everyone's notes are so, so different...

Whoa, that is much work to do, to take note. I hope I can do that, coz to much note is overwhelming, and I like clean and simple notes. But yeah, the minus is some lack of information.

Need for improvement for my note-taking.
Would you mind to share a note in here? Screenshot maybe.

It's ok if you mind it. ☺️

Here you can see a Gif, and I'll add a little screenshot too (with my documentation in spanish!). Hope that helps 😊

What a great answer. I really appreciate this!

Btw, I'll try to use Notion as you mention, as tools to upgrade my skill at note-taking.
