I recently used linked thinking in Obsidian to do some critical meme analysis for therapy. It was a good exercise in creating index notes, e.g. a meme crossing over Marvel and The Good Place wouldn't fit in a folder for either one.

I hope this comes across in good faith rather than pithy, but have you tried making a note of the habits you want to keep?

My main problem is going back to those notes. Whether I use Org+Dropbox, google docs/calendar, a physical BuJo, messages to myself on Whatsapp, etc... At some point checking the system slips my mind, regardless of the system.

That's fair, I've run into that too. Is there anything that you do check? I've found that emailing myself and snoozing it (in gmail) helps since I'm an inbox-zero person.
