Short journal · Original editorial · Memory needs context
Instructions are kept without the object they describe.
A saved item is easier to use when its reason travels with it. Dates, sources, and short explanations can do more than an elaborate filing system. Start with the items you actually expect to revisit and leave uncertainty visible.
Label what they apply to before putting them away.
Keep the original situation in view. A method that solves a different problem is still a detour, however attractive it looks.
