I saw this the other day and I was fascinated by how Bill Gates takes notes...
...The other thing I noticed during the course of the meeting is how he takes his notes. He doesn't take notes from top-to-bottom, but rather logically divides the page into quadrants, each reserved for a different thought. For example, it appeared that all his questions were placed at the bottom of the page...
I'm wondering does anyone else do this? And if so, how do you divide up your quadrants?
Currently I take notes from Top-Down and sometimes I may miss some points when I'm processing these notes in my Weekly Review.
