I like setting up folders in the main directory, with a couple of scratch notebooks or a quickbook available for quick note-taking, which can then be moved into the proper subfolders if needed..
00.Work, 01.School, 03.Health, 04.Hobby, 05.Personal
Then folders within folders, like...
Fall 23 --> Course1 Course 2 Course 3
Each Course has sections, each section has handouts, notes, homework...
For notes, each separate day is a new Notebook. The schedule from both profs include Class 1, 2, 3 so being able to check back to see which notes are from which class is nice. I personally like it better than one big notebook for all of my notes.
Work has Meetings, Projects, Processes...
Hobby has Crochet, Knitting, Fishkeeping...
Tags are nice too - I use them to help with searches, like DB project, or Stata, Crochet, Hat Pattern...With my organization, the tags aren't 100% necessary, but they're useful. For example, a WIP tag can pull work projects, homework, and crochet patterns that I have tagged as WIP so I can decide where my time is better spent. Same thing with a COMPLETE tag, or YAY/BOO to make notes of if I liked the pattern or recipe, etc's end product.
Your insights have been incredibly valuable. You've sparked a few ideas on how I'll structure my system. Thank you! ☺️
