Taking structred notes about my life in a way where they reference other notes and can be searched easily. I've built up a knowledgebase about the things in my life that works far better than my memory ever could. It's helped at work a ton too, as I'm better able to remember what I was doing yesterday and what progress I've made towards a particular goal.

TL;DR - Learn how to use note-taking software

Do you use Obsidian, logseq, Emacs or Notion?

I use Obsidian, but anything with a Daily Note feature is key.

Seems harder to reference other text files

References are for Nick Fury and Captain America. The rest of us normies get textedit.exe.
