How does the method work?
The sentence note-taking method uses gaps between lines to keep different thoughts, concepts, and ideas apart. Whenever a new idea comes up, you write it on a fresh line. This makes your notes look like a tall stack of sentences, each neatly on top of the other.
Let's break it down into simple steps:
Line by Line: Write each idea on a fresh line to keep your notes clear and organized.
The Number Game: Add numbers to your lines for easy reference and a structured layout.
Supercharge Your Memory: Don't just leave your notes untouched. Review and polish them regularly!
